Publisher's Synopsis
The purpose of this book is to illustrate the use of photographs of school artifacts found in classrooms, hallways and school grounds to expose the teachings of the K-12 hidden curriculum regarding diversity. The photograph on the front cover is the first school artifact encountered by students - a street sign announcing the school crossing up ahead. A close look at the photograph shows the male figure extending his arm to grasp arm of the female figure. Chivalry or chauvinism? A sign of assistance or a symbol to send the gender message of male dominance? The book focuses on the interpretations of school artifacts and explores what is "ahead" for K-12 students in the artifacts of the hidden diversity curriculum.
