Critical Pedagogy

What it means to produce
forms of understanding?

That is to enable people
to navigate the world
in which they live

Covid crisis is not just
a medical crisis for example

But it is a muldimensional crisis;
political, economical, personal

How do we relate
private issues to
larger systemic
concerns?

According to Freire, critical thinking
is based on the objective realities in
the individual’s life.

What I believe is not what
you need to believe

It requires exchange of thoughts and beliefs
through dialogue in which both
teachers and students have
critical cooperation in research. 2014, p.2

People need to be able to
understand the world and
themselves

Not to live in a circle
and say there's
only one way

How do you want to inform
people they are living
in a democracy?
As mentioned by
Giroux 2020 (Video)

Media has a
responsability to
educate

Education for
Tirany

Education for
Emancipation/
Democracy

Goverment has to take
education seriously if
they talk about democracy
seriously

Political Education

Politicizing education

Do we define ourselves
as agents individualy or
collectivelly?

“it is possible to free people
from silence culture and
the trap of ignorance only
through education and awareness
(Nayestani, 2009), quoted in
Freire. 2014, p.2

The problems you have
are not individual problems
some of them might be
social problems
