The core element of due process is “fairness.” Brainstorm appropriate procedures for terminating a teacher, suspending or expelling a student, and administering corporal punishment. Please list your brainstorming thoughts.
- Gather information on the implementation of due process procedures for teachers and students from school districts in your area. In other words, what is the procedure for due process for a teacher or student?
Review recent court cases (national, state or local) that concern teachers or students. Review the processes that surrounded the court cases and outcomes. Choose one of the court cases that your reviewed and explain how due process was followed.
