Sharing assignments in OpenClass
OpenClass is on a mission to improve & democratize education. Through our platform, educators can share assignments privately or with our entire community to improve accessibility of the best learning resources around the world.
Our assignments guide students through research-backed study sessions to reinforce learning. If this review is relevant to your teachings, feel free to add it to one of your classes!
Our format is simple and engaging: students are asked a retrieval question, then shown corrective feedback and a multiple-choice mastery question to assess their understanding of the material. Assignments adapt to unique student needs and continue to draw questions until a student has demonstrated mastery.

(Student response here)
The Supreme Court played a crucial role in upholding the Espionage and Sedition Acts, most notably in the case of Schenck v. United States (1919). The Court ruled that speech creating a "clear and present danger" was not protected under the First Amendment, thereby justifying the restrictions imposed by the Acts.
In the case of Schenck v. United States, what principle did the Supreme Court establish regarding free speech?
