Chapter 1 definitely applies to our lives as teachers and students. We still have yet to realize our humanity. We still currently reside in that top-down manner where the second-hand garments of the oppressors are passed on to the oppressed. We still utilize a pedagogy FOR the oppressed rather than a pedagogy OF the oppressed.

I search and I search and I cannot find a discussion on Freire’s purpose in using “pedagogy” vs say “andragogy” or “didactics”. I can’t shake the troubling sense of infantilism inherent in choosing a term which essentially means to teach children rather than adults or just “people”. Are we to assume there’s perhaps a translation error or does he intend to infantilize the human, adult or not, who exists outside a state of conscientização? Perhaps he’s using pedagogy in the same colloquial way that most people use it, devoid of age implication. The most optimistic way I can read it is perhaps, given a state of conscientização, the awakened oppressed may now empower themselves by teaching their own children thus imbuing them with the same state. So perhaps the “of” in the title is literal and not ironic, ergo not “teaching the oppressed (child)” but more like, “the teaching praxis of the oppressed”
@masoodraja3 жыл бұрын
I would agree that it is not teaching of the oppressed but Pedagogy of the oppressed, which means a pedagogy informed by and with the active participation of the oppressed. Freire’s project was about informal adult education but it can obviously be modified for formal education as well. As for pedagogy, I think he uses it as a technical term that strongly emphasizes praxis.
