Question : 82 of 150

Marks: +1, -0

A Social Science teacher wanted his students to understand a health policy implemented by a previous State Government. The ex-health minister’s article provides an in-depth view of this aspect. However, he was recently accused for corruption. So the teacher wonders whether and how to use this article.
Which of the following is the most responsible approach for the Social Science teacher?

Explain that we should not bother about the author of the article but focus only on the content, which is related to the policy.
Use excerpts from the article in class without attributing to the author, to take advantage of it while avoiding controversy.
Use another, less useful, source as material in the class instead. Discussing the controversy would only lead to waste of time.
Explain that people in government positions can attract controversy, and we should choose articles on academic merit rather than unrelated reputation.
