You Don't Get Somethin' for Nothin'.
Mahaffey, Foyne
Educational Leadership, v53 n1 p80 Sep 1995
As a beginning teacher, the author gladly adapted companies' complimentary kits, snacks, and fast-food ads to her own purposes. She later realized that every corporate calendar, filmstrip, and free admission came with a price tag: corporate promotion. She now shields her students from advertising and creates many of her own materials. (MLH)
