Project 1C

1. Nanette, she is working on her AA degree in Humanities
Two Things she learned about Paulo Freire are:
-
He believed that people should work with each other rather than one person acting on another.
-In the 1970's he travelled the world lecturing on his ideas and experiences with education.

2.Westley, he lives 50.8 miles away from the Santa Rosa Campus!
Two things he learned about Paulo Freire are:
-He wrote a book titled Pedagogy of the Oppressed which is used in most educational texts in Latin America, Africa, and Asia.
-He is also well known for a concept of “Banking” education, where the person doing the learning only listens and learns what they want to hear and tone everything else out.

Nanette and Westley -- great connections. Be careful with Banking concept -- Freire was against that type of learning where we sit like empty bank accounts waiting for someone to fill us.
