Tuesday, 8 December

Students turned in a draft page from the 1st Amendment Guide Book assignment.

Class today included a lesson in analyzing assignment sheets.

Students gave one another feedback on the draft guidebook sections.

Mr. Zartler gave a short lecture on 1st Amendment and the Media and especially limits on broadcast radio and television and on Symbolic Speech and the following concepts:


Speech Concepts:
What types of speech are there?

How does the three-part “test” established in Miller v. California work? What does it do?

What does the 1st Amendment say about “Prior Restraint”? What examples or explanation can you provide?

What is symbolic and / or expressive speech? What examples or explanation can you provide?
What limits are there to these kinds of speech?

Texas v. Johnson (1989) What is important to know about the effects of this case?

There will be a quiz on speech and assembly next class; also a second page of the guide book is due.
