Answer to Question 1

The hidden curriculum refers to the values that are implicitly taught through the stories and examples that are used to teach math and English grammar. These stories and examples teach children lessons in patriotism, democracy, justice, and honesty, in addition to math and English grammar. As we are taught to take our place in the workforce, we are also learning correct attitudes toward our economic system. In a private, high-priced university, the students are more likely to be groomed for leadership positions. They are a part of a social network that includes parents who are CEOs, doctors, lawyers, and other members of the upper class. State-supported universities are composed of students from less influential backgrounds who will make up the bulk of the workforce responsible for doing the routine, basic work needed by society. These positions includes teachers, nurses, caseworkers, and others.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
