Critical pedagogy: an introduction 论文

摘要

Critical pedagogy refers to the means and methods of testing and attempting to change the structures of schools that allow inequities. It is a cultural-political tool that takes seriously the notion of human differences, particularly those related to race, class, and gender. Critical pedagogy seeks to release the oppressed and unite people in a shared language of critique, struggle, and hope, to end various forms of human suffering. This book is the first elementary primer in critical pedagogy, making it possible for all levels of educators to understand and use its common vision of human justice and decency for all in the battered classrooms of today. University professors and public school teachers alike will learn how to address their own prophetic commitments to belief and faith in the fight against despair, institutional chaos, oppression, death of spirit, and exile.
