The idea that teachers are uncritically or only presenting PragerU videos is absurd to me. Odds are it's a basic bitch political science class and PragerU is used as the generic "conservative belief" surrogate.
Apparently some schools had kids asked to watch a video and summarize its point for extra credit.
Some parents inevitably sperged out and pulled their kids out of classes so the school tried compromising by also assigning left wing videos until finally giving up on the extra credit assignments altogether.Lewis was immediately alarmed when she started her extra credit assignment last week. The assignment asked her to watch PragerU videos and then answer questions about how the videos challenged her beliefs. She had hoped to use the assignment to tack on a few extra points to her grade after taking a test on which she suspected she performed poorly, but after seeing the videos, the teen didn’t think she could complete the homework.
I don’t see in the article what type of class it was so it probably was something political given it’s undermine the article the most to include that sort of fact.
