Censorship
During the past week our class has been focusing on the
importance of censorship. We split into groups and chose a way to explain
Censorship and what it’s roughly about. Working in groups, we surveyed other
classes with two questions such as "Do you understand the term Censorship?" We tallied their answers. The first class we surveyed all 21 students were unaware
of the term Censorship. Our group then explained the meaning of censorship and 15 people decided that Censorship is good and 6 students decided it was
bad. We surveyed other classes with the same questions and recorded their
answers in the tally below.
QUESTION 1: Do you understand the term ‘censorship
QUESTION 1: Do you understand the term ‘censorship
QUESTION 2: Is censorship good or bad for our community?
Our tally showed a variety of different answers. Our group
explained to each class what Censorship is and why we believe censorship should
or shouldn’t be allowed in our society. We surveyed 3 year 8 classes and 1 year
nine class, I was surprised at the amount of people in year 8 that didn’t know
what censorship was and when we explained it they thought it was bad, and a bad
idea to allow censorship on books. the year 9 class was more experienced about
the term 'censorship' they equally thought it was a good and bad thing, the
year nine class gave us some feedback about why they think it was a good thing.
One girl said "the reason I think censorship is good because people that
enjoy reading books might not want to read about explicit chapter scenes and
having a rating on a book will warn people about these scenes in books."
-Bella another said "I think censorship is bad because then it doesn’t
allow people underage to read the book they want to read" -Tyler.
All classes gave us great feedback.
What is censorship?
I believe that Censorship is ratings and classifications on books, magazienes or movies. Ratings such as: G, PG, M, MA15+ and R18+. It’s also to warn people about the book having explicit language or section in the book. I think Censorship is both good and bad. There is negative restrictions about Censorship as well as positive things.
