Full textAbstract:
Within the parameters of western ideology the concept of democracy is frequently upheld as a corner stone to which our moral, social, political and educational practices are anchored. The term has become a powerful instrument of persuasion in the public forums as the innate goodness of democracy has become more unquestionably ingrained in the historical imaginations of its citizens. As the logic surrounding the value placed on democracy is entwined with the virtues of freedom and self-determination for all, this is hardly surprising. What remains often unexplored in these public forums, however, is whether this logic is in fact justified. To situate the investigation into the current political arena is to acknowledge the dichotomy by which the philosophies of democracy and capitalism are publicly claimed to exist side by side. Such an acknowledgement forcefully yields one to the questions of to what extent our current ideologies of democracy, and the perpetuation of this dogma through our education system, can successfully result in producing an authentic democratic society within capitalist constructs. This thesis has been written in an attempt to expose the contradiction present between our current political claims of democracy and our capitalist directed practices of education through the critical philosophy of Paulo Freire. Freire has firmly established himself as a respected democratic educator, however, my intention has not been to reduce his educational pedagogy by adapting it to attempt to improve the current system of schooling, as I argue is frequently found within educational literature, but rather to differentiate his democratic philosophy of education as the practice of freedom from the capitalist concept of education as a tool of domination and domestication. I argue that the logic of transnational capitalism, which dictates the policies and practices of our education system, is detrimental to the development of the peoples' critical thinking facilities and thus negates their individual and collective empowerment. Such a system of banking education actively denies people the right to participate in history as subjects and inhibits the possibility of an authentic democracy. In this way the capitalist education system is in fact a system of oppression. Through Freire's critical pedagogy I argue that the transference ofknowledge through an authoritarian system does not constitute as education but is instead a training ground for workers set up in the interests of capitalist employers. Social class divisions are maintained and enforced by means of a paternalistic apparatus of hierarchy. In supporting Freire's philosophy, and acknowledging the entirely political nature of education, I argue that an education system that would support an authentic democracy would have to practice authentic democracy. Through the concepts of 'promblematization', dialogue, critical transitivity and praxis I have attempted to refute the fatalistic assumptions that such an education system is unconceivable or unexplainable. Indeed, I argue that if our goal is to live in a democracy then such concepts are unavoidable. The historical case study from the history of the New Zealand education system is included to illustrate the theory in practice. Here I argue that the intentions, practices and policies of the legislators were anti-democratic and anti-educational in that they constructed a compulsory system that is detrimental to the development of critical thought, self determination and dialogical knowing that is necessary to allow each member of society to be part of the governing system. By examining the consequences and legacy of this system it is possible to expose its influences in the larger educational realm in society. It is not my intention to simply present New Zealand education as an isolated case which requires examination but rather as a prominent example of how Freire's philosophy applies to traditional education in the west. This thesis is therefore aimed at re-defining the concepts of democracy and education through critically examining the socio-economic conditions necessary for effective and equal participation in democratic forums. By critiquing the current system via the vehicle of Freire's philosophy, a prominent democratic educator, the divide between democracy as an illusion and as a reality becomes clearer.

Full textAbstract:
LIEB, SHERYL J., Ph.D. In Pursuit of a Pedagogy of Personhood: Existentialism and Possibilities for Educator Liberation. (2015) Directed by Dr. Glenn M. Hudak. 244 pp. In this study, I explore the problem of 21st century educator existential oppression (my term) as the negation of personal and pedagogical personhood that I experienced as a result of my confrontations (across three separate schools) with oppressive policies and practices instituted by the neoliberal business model within the institution of education. I use my story to reflect the individual educator?s situation of dehumanization as it has become embedded within a neoliberal pedagogy of standardization, measurement, and objectification, asserting that this is an increasingly common phenomenon among contemporary educators. I discuss philosophical conceptions of oppression, personhood, and pedagogy through the lens of existentialism, positioned as a humanizing response to the dehumanization of neoliberal educational ideology. Emphasizing the existential attitude of intentional self-consciousness for self- reclamation (personhood) and resistance to oppression, I also address existential tenets that inform my current efforts toward teaching for freedom in the undergraduate classroom. Four existential questions frame the conclusion of this study, the responses to which prioritize the concept of integrity as fundamental to the pursuit of an individual pedagogy of personhood and the rehumanization of education, even inferring the community at large. The methodology of this study is an integration of philosophical analysis and scholarly personal narrative writing (SPN), the latter including reflections and commentaries interspersed throughout the study, along with excerpts from post-class, teaching field notes (spring 2013, the University of North Carolina at Greensboro), most notably in Chapter IV.

Full textAbstract:
Thesis advisor: Patrick ProctorYouth of color are owed an “education debt” from this country, built on systems that sought to disenfranchise people of color, from colonialism and slavery to legacies of redlining and present-day criminalization practices (Ladson-Billings, 2006). Black, Indigenous and Latinx youth have consistently been pushed out of schools at higher rates than other groups (Morris, 2016). In recognizing this problem, this dissertation examined the ways that one alternative program in an urban-area in the Northeast sought to re-engage youth of color through emancipatory pedagogical models. All students, except for one, were youth of color with the majority of students being of Caribbean origin (i.e. Haitian, Dominican, Puerto Rican, Trinidadian, St. Lucian, Jamaican). In examining a need for emancipatory pedagogies, I conducted interviews with alumni and focus groups with current students to understand the multitude of reasons that students had been pushed out of traditional schools in their previous educational experiences. I then conducted interviews with past and present staff, as well as observations in the program, to understand the different pedagogies that were created that promoted decolonization and liberation in this particular alternative program. I then analyzed the short and long-term impacts of the program, primarily in understanding how the program shaped student identities. This study employed a qualitative approach, including a Youth Participatory Action Research component, to examine the factors listed above. MAXQDA was used to code transcripts of focus groups and interviews to determine themes in understanding the development and impact of emancipatory pedagogical models. Findings indicated the importance of creating a foundation for emancipatory pedagogies through staff spaces and conversations to understand implicit biases and teaching philosophies. This work should then be enhanced by building deep and supportive relationships with students and teaching in ways that uplift students’ cultures and promote critical consciousness. Key impacts of these pedagogies were found in racial identity, which was tied to gender identity and academic identity

This research aims to analyze the historical, political, social, economic and ideological context in which it appears criticism of Paulo Freire pedagogy and later liberation theology, seeking to find influences of this peculiar context in the genesis of Freire's thought and conceptions of the theologians Rubem Alves and Gustavo Gutierrez, who were the first to publish works on liberation theology, theological current considered genuinely Latin American. It seeks to observe to what extent the pedagogical concepts of Freire may have been taken by Gutierrez Alves and theologians in their works reviewed here. In both thoughts we find the valuation of view of human beings and a praxis that seeks liberation from oppressive systems. Both in Paulo Freire as the fundamentals of this theological current present humanistic principles and elements of the Christian tradition. From the methodological tool of analysis of the Marxist dialectical historical materialism, seeks to identify common themes that are addressed by the authors in their arising works from the 1950s to 1970, pausing to study some of the underlying themes, namely, practice , history , humanism and freedom.
A presente pesquisa se propõe a analisar o contexto histórico, político, social, econômico e ideológico em que surge a pedagogia crítica de Paulo Freire e posteriormente a Teologia da Libertação, visando encontrar influências deste peculiar contexto na gênese do pensamento freireano e nas concepções dos teólogos Rubem Alves e Gustavo Gutiérrez, que foram os primeiros publicar obras sobre Teologia da Libertação, corrente teológica considerada genuinamente latino-americana. Ainda procura observar em que medida as concepções pedagógicas de Freire podem ter sido acolhidas pelos teólogos Alves e Gutiérrez em suas obras aqui analisadas. Em ambos os pensamentos encontramos a visão de valorização do ser humano e de uma práxis que busca sua libertação de sistemas opressores. Tanto em Paulo Freire como nos fundamentos desta corrente teológica se apresentam princípios humanistas e elementos da tradição cristã. A partir da ferramenta metodológica de análise do materialismo histórico dialético marxista, procura identificar temas comuns que são abordados pelos autores em suas obras surgidas entre as décadas de 1950 a 1970, detendo-se ao estudo de alguns temas subjacentes a esse contexto histórico, a saber: práxis, história, humanismo e libertação.

Johnson, Michelle J. "A PEDAGOGY FOR JUSTICE: KANT, HEGEL, MARCUSE AND FREIRE ON EDUCATION AND THE GOOD SOCIETY." UKnowledge, 2016. http://uknowledge.uky.edu/philosophy_etds/11.
Full textAbstract:
Rousseau’s educational treatise Emile is a well-known pedagogical work often noted for its progressive educational insights. Although Kant’s Lectures on Pedagogy is much less well known, Kant suggests a solution to an educational problem Rousseau is unable to solve: the problem of whether or not education can work for the good of humanity. Rousseau is concerned that society, and the schools in society, inflames people’s passions and leads to inequality and enslavement. Rousseau sketches an educational program that ideally develops students’ autonomous moral reasoning untainted by inflamed passion, an education which enables students to be moral and just citizens, working for the good of humanity. I argue that Rousseau’s educational philosophy ultimately fails because Rousseau maintains a deep skepticism that society, and therefore schools, can ever be a good place for humans. Rousseau suggests education must go to extreme measures such as isolating students in a rural environment and manipulating all aspects of their lives to prevent passions from becoming inflamed. Implementing this kind of education is not only improbable for individual students; it is especially improbable that it could be implemented on a large scale.
I further argue that Kant’s educational philosophy provides a solution to the problems which beset Rousseau’s educational philosophy. Kant embraces negative passions as necessarily educative, and so his educational philosophy does not require extreme measures to combat negative passion. In addition, Kant argues that is only in society and through these negative passions that humanity develops. Kant’s educational philosophy is achievable for both the individual student and also on a large scale because it focuses on developing three key aspects of students that draw on capacities within the student and that are developed in community with others: a robust will bent towards the good; good and skilled moral judgment; and a commitment to the ethical commonwealth. Lastly, I argue that Hegel, Marcuse and Freire, three philosophers who follow after Kant, develop important aspects of Kant’s solution to Rousseau’s problem. Taken together, these four philosophers present a compelling educational philosophy which suggests that education not only can but indeed must work for the good of humanity

Swain, Ayanna N. "21st Century Freedom Fighters: African Descent Teachers' Use of Culturally Relevant Pedagogy as a Tool of Liberation." Digital Archive @ GSU, 2011. http://digitalarchive.gsu.edu/eps_diss/73.
Full textAbstract:
African descent students often are subjected to pedagogical practices and curricula that do not validate their home cultures or their individual and collective histories. In response to this problem, many teachers implement culturally relevant pedagogy (CRP) and curricula to address the needs of this population. Focusing on two African descent teachers in an African-centered school, the purpose of this qualitative African-centered inquiry was to 1) examine how the ancient Kemetic philosophy, Ma’at, manifests in their epistemologies, worldviews, and pedagogical practices, 2) explore how their epistemologies and worldviews inform their pedagogical practices, and 3) understand how their life experiences shaped their epistemologies and worldviews. A holistic theoretical framework comprised of Afrocentric and womanist theories and a CRP theoretical approach informed the “retooled” life history methodology employed in this study. The culturally sensitive data collection methods included dialogue, storytelling, participatory witnessing, and Afrocentric group conversation. Thematic and dialogic/performance narrative analysis techniques were used to analyze the data. The significance of this study is fourfold. First, this study adds to the paucity of existing literature on exemplary African descent teachers by bringing to the fore how the epistemologies and worldviews of teachers shape their pedagogical practices in an African-centered school. Second, this study explored the intended liberatory effects of African descent teachers’ implementation of CRP for themselves and for their students, ultimately affecting how both position themselves in the broader society. Third, use of the cardinal virtues of Ma’at (truth, justice, righteousness, order, harmony, balance, and reciprocity) as the philosophical foundation for this study presents an ontological alternative to privileging western philosophical frameworks typically used in educational research. Finally, as the ancient Kemetic philosophy employed in this study and as this study’s philosophical foundation, Ma'at specifically encourages policy makers, researchers, and practitioners to reexamine their notions of contemporary education in terms of its purpose, methods, and conceptions of the whole child. The findings illuminate ways that Ma’at undergirds the participants’ epistemologies, worldviews, and culturally relevant pedagogical practices enabling them to facilitate critical thinking, critical consciousness, and identity development with their students.

Full textAbstract:
Thesis advisor: Hosffman OspinoThere is a pressing need to re-awaken in teaching the prophetic call to serve the liberation of children, whose complex humanity remains systemically marginalized. This proposal is grounded in a study of the Lasallian tradition of education, which originates from John Baptist de La Salle (1651-1719), founder of the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools in seventeenth century France and the patron saint for Christian teachers of the young. From a Lasallian perspective, the prophetic call to teach for children’s liberation is rooted contemplatively in a Christian mysticism of faith, which energizes an incarnational mission of education in zeal, shaped by a preferential option for children as the poor and marginalized. This preferential option for children is a hermeneutical key that reads the Lasallian mission of education forward into the twenty-first century. I develop this idea of a preferential option for children, locating it in an interpretive study that critically synthesizes a Lasallian theology of child with literature in childhood studies, spirituality, critical pedagogy and participatory action research. Building on the Lasallian imagination, this study contributes to a Christian spirituality of education as it examines how contemporary theological perspectives on children and childhood serve as a lens that deepens the interconnection between Christian mysticism, liberation, and child in teaching as a prophetic vocation. To teach for children’s liberation is to promote their flourishing as full human beings created in the image and likeness of God. It attends to conditions that protect children in their social marginalization while engaging and developing their social participation as responsible agents in our common belonging to God as God’s children and siblings-in-Christ. It demands just presence in teaching, which begins with listening as receptivity to the mystery of the child as graced irruption. The prophetic call to teach for children’s liberation is mystically rooted in contemplative wonder at the Incarnation. Such wonder must also open the teacher to being disturbed by the scandalizing action of God, who steps out of God-self not only to be with the poor, but also in the least as a human child in Jesus Christ. It is this recognition of God’s presence in each child and with children that calls forth the responsibility of teachers, making an ethical claim on them to be courageously present in ways that prioritize the human dignity of children in education

Full textAbstract:
In an age of adultism in which children have been perceived as mere drains on society, schooling often has been viewed as a means to an end. Due to the fact that a capitalistic society requires future workers, children have been socialized in the necessary skills and knowledge required to fulfill their future job requirements. Consequently, schooling often has taken place in the form of the banking model in which students are treated as empty vessels to be filled up by the knowledgeable teachers, and then to regurgitate said knowledge on assessments to prove their understanding. I challenge this antiquated vision of education, especially in relation to what it has meant for young children in preschool through first grade.
Using critical pedagogy and the Reggio Emilia approach as theoretical frameworks, I conducted a critical narrative study of eight early educators who have had experience working with students in early grades in emancipatory ways. I found that educators’ own experiences and consciousness greatly affected their beliefs about young children as well as the liberatory practices they engaged. I present a proposal for a shift in thinking about the education of young children, a relational model of education that highlights the intersections of critical pedagogy and the Reggio Emilia approach in grounding the work of teaching in armed love, belief in the capabilities of children, and opportunities for students to work with educators as revolutionary partners and transformative change agents who have an active role in their education and their world.

Full textAbstract:
Liberation and critical theories of education believe in the political nature of all types of education. 'The school' in the third world is 'oppressive' because it creates and perpetuates 'western-style' class hierarchies. As such, nothing good will be secured at the marginalized groups without a drastic shift in their socioeconomic and political condition. Consciousness-raising non-formal adult education is 'liberation education' aimed specifically for the disenfranchised rural poor. It helps them develop skills to discover the oppressive elements in their lives, become aware of the causes of their destitution, and empower them to take action to transform their realities. Previous studies have demonstrated such programs have been successful in emancipating the poor; this evaluative study of liberation education in southern Ethiopia has also proven to help the target population develop a critical consciousness regarding their impoverished and oppressed conditions and help empower them to work towards changing their lives.

Full textAbstract:
A decline in the number of vowed religious who teach and administer in Catholic high schools has placed the responsibility for transferring the founders’ Charism, the traditional mission and identity of the schools, in the hands of lay educators. This study examined how one Catholic independent single-sex high school established programs and methods to transfer the founders’ Charism to its lay educators and students in the areas of social justice, diversity, and social and political awareness.
The researcher collected data about Charism transference by interviewing five adults selected as a purposive sample and conducting focus groups with 15 students selected on a nominative basis. Additional research included prolonged researcher emic observation and an analysis of school documents and archives; the data were codified and an emergent analysis of the data was performed. The analysis focused on social justice, diversity, and social and political awareness at the school. Informing the analysis were the theories of Catholic Social Teaching, critical pedagogy, and liberation theology. The emergent analysis identified that the school institutionalized the founders’ Charism, established an atmosphere of care for others in the areas of social justice and diversity, and promoted awareness of feminine identity and a sense of students as leaders, as well as an understanding of social justice and diversity issues. However, factors including social reproduction, social capital, cultural capital, and class complicated the transformational praxis of action in the areas of social justice and political and social awareness.

Este estudo propõe a identificação das ações formativas desenvolvidas nas relações de produção do Jornal da Universidade (JU), da Secretaria de Comunicação Social (Secom) da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), entre alunos do curso de Jornalismo da UFRGS que fazem estágio não obrigatório na redação e a equipe de profissionais, entre os quais se inclui este pesquisador. Buscou-se, por meio da pesquisa qualitativa, utilizando-se como instrumento a entrevista semiestruturada, apurar das narrativas dos entrevistados o que consideram ações formativas e as reflexões sobre a dinâmica de trabalho no JU que entabularam. Três foram as intenções do trabalho: (a) mapear as trocas interpessoais e coletivas que aprimoram a qualidade técnica do grupo, mais especificamente dos alunos; (b) produzir conteúdo sobre os processos de trabalho; e (c) apreciar as condições do ambiente humano e suas dinâmicas, no sentido de verificar se (e como) colaboram para o desdobramento das ações e dos exercícios de aprendizagem, sobre o que se logrou êxito. Com os resultados, elaborou-se uma proposta de projeto de formação para a equipe do JU. Em temos teóricos, como base pedagógica acorremos aos postulados de Paulo Freire, Moacir Gadotti e Carlos Alberto Torres, nas suas publicações sobre a Pedagogia da Libertação. Em convergência com estes, como substrato metodológico ao projeto resultante deste trabalho, propomos princípios desenvolvidos na teoria das Comunidades de Aprendizagem, em especial o capítulo sobre a aprendizagem dialógica, elaborada pelo Centro Especial de Investigação em Teorias e Práticas Superadoras de Desigualdades da Universidade de Barcelona, difundida no Brasil desde 2003. Sobre jornalismo, lançamos mão das ideias de Gramsci sobre o “jornalismo integral” e de Adelmo Genro Filho sobre a teoria do jornalismo como forma de conhecimento, respectivamente em “Os intelectuais e a organização da cultura” e “O segredo da pirâmide”. A respeito da comunicação pública, encontramos as preocupações democráticas que nos interessam em Maria Helena Weber, na publicação recente “Comunicação Pública e Política”. Por fim, sobre a gestão democrática, recorremos a Naura Syria Carapeto Ferreira, no livro “Gestão da educação: impasses, perspectivas e compromissos”. Para a equipe do JU, é consenso a compreensão de que os processos de aprendizagem se estendem para além dos ambientes formais, sendo múltiplas as possibilidades de se produzirem contextos propícios ao aprender.
This study proposes the identification of the training actions developed in the production relations between professionals and academics in the writing of the Jornal da Universidade (JU), monthly publication of the Secretaria de Comunicação Social of the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS). Through the qualitative research, the semi-structured interview was used as an instrument, to ascertain from the interviewees' narratives what they consider as formative actions and the reflections about the work dynamics in the JU that they entered into. Three were the intentions of the work: (a) to map the interpersonal and collective exchanges that improve the technical quality of the group, more specifically of the students; (b) produce content about the work processes; and (c) to assess the conditions of the human environment and its dynamics, in order to verify if (and how) they collaborate for the unfolding of actions and the learning exercises, about which success has been achieved. With the results, a proposal for a training project for the JU team was elaborated. In theoretical terms, as a pedagogical basis we come to the postulates of Paulo Freire, Moacir Gadotti and Carlos Alberto Torres, in their publications on “Pedagogia da Libertação”. In convergence with these, as a methodological substrate to the project resulting from this work, we propose principles developed in the theory of Learning Communities, especially the chapter on dialogic learning, elaborated by the Special Center for Research in Theories and Practices Overcoming Inequalities of the University of Barcelona, published in Brazil since 2003. On journalism, we have used Gramsci's ideas on "Jornalismo Integral" and Adelmo Genro Filho on the theory of journalism as a form of knowledge, respectively in "Os Intelectuais e a Organização da Cultura" and "O Segredo da Pirâmide". Concerning public communication, we find the democratic concerns that interest us in Maria Helena Weber, in the recent publication "Comunicação Pública e Política". Finally, on the question of democratic management, we refer to Naura Syria Carapeto Ferreira, in the book "Gestão da Educação: impasses, perspectivas e compromissos". For the JU team, it is a consensus that learning processes extend beyond formal environments, with multiple possibilities for learning environments.

Previous issue date: 2012-09-11Paulo Freire, inspiring and theorist of popular education movement has formulated a proposal for education from the oppressed and not the oppressor, he said education should firstly transform traditional systems of education and build a proposal to rewrite the pedagogical practice, rethinking political meaning of education. Created Education of liberation for the oppressed classes considered in the attempt to educate them politically. Liberation theology is a theological reflection that proposes the political commitment of faith with the historical reality from the perspective of the struggle for liberation of the oppressed classes. Seeing poverty as a structural sin offering the political involvement of Christians in building a more just and caring society. One of the main characteristics of the liberation theology is to see the poor, not as objects of charity, but subject to their own liberation, the main character of his own story. So what you want to highlight are the main points between liberation theology and Education of Paulo Freire since the concern of both is with the poor and oppressed. Besides a common context, the historical origin and social liberation theology and Education of Paulo Freire employ a convergent terminology. The work of Paulo Freire is directed to the folk school, a libertarian education, dedicated to the poor and liberation theology operates through the church and Christians of poor communities to formulate a theology libertarian especially from Christians themselves. Paulo Freire has much in common with Liberation Theology and Liberation Theology has much in common with the Education of Paulo Freire. This approach leads to consider a mutual reciprocal influence, although both have their own history of emergence and development. The motivation is problematical point the contribution of these two major simultaneous events from the national historical context of the 1960s.
Paulo Freire, inspirador e teórico do movimento da educação popular formulou uma proposta de educação a partir do oprimido e não do opressor, segundo ele a educação deveria, primeiramente, transformar sistemas tradicionais de ensino e construir uma proposta de reescrever a prática pedagógica, repensando o sentido político da educação. Criou uma Pedagogia da Libertação para as consideradas classes oprimidas na tentativa e conscientizá-las politicamente. A Teologia da Libertação é uma reflexão teológica que tem como proposta o comprometimento político da fé com a realidade histórica sob a perspectiva da luta pela libertação das classes oprimidas. Vendo a pobreza como pecado estrutural e propondo o engajamento político dos cristãos na construção de uma sociedade mais justa e solidária. Uma das principais características da Teologia da Libertação é ver o pobre, não como objeto de caridade, mas sujeito de sua própria libertação, protagonista de sua própria história. Assim o que se pretende evidenciar são os pontos comuns entre a Teologia da Libertação e a Pedagogia de Paulo Freire uma vez que a preocupação de ambos é com os pobres e oprimidos. Além de um contexto comum, de origem histórica e social, a Teologia da Libertação e a Pedagogia de Paulo Freire empregam uma terminologia convergente. A atuação de Paulo Freire é direcionada para a escola popular, por uma educação libertária, voltada aos pobres e a Teologia da Libertação atua por meio da igreja e dos cristãos das comunidades pobres para formular uma teologia libertária especialmente a partir dos próprios cristãos. Paulo Freire tem muito em comum com a Teologia da Libertação e a Teologia da Libertação muito em comum com a Pedagogia de Paulo Freire. Essa aproximação mútua leva a pensar numa influência recíproca, embora ambos tenham uma história própria de surgimento e desenvolvimento. A motivação problematizadora é apontar a contribuição desses dois grandes acontecimentos simultâneos a partir do contexto histórico nacional da década 1960.

This PhD thesis has as object the counter-hegemonic field in education in the Neoliberal Decade analyzed by historical and polítical aspects, oriented by bibliographical research and deep interviews with theoretical-educators: Dermeval Saviani (Historical-Critical Pedagogy), José Carlos Libâneo ( Critical-Social Pedagogy of Contents), Oder José dos Santos (Practice Pedagogy, or Social Conflicts Pedagogy) and Lisete Regina Gomes Arelaro (Liberating Pedagogy by Paulo Freire). The theoretical and methodological treatment, in a dialectical conception, presents different ways to be counter-hegemonic from the conflict of ideas between the different and not between the antagonistic, showing the social and polítical role of the education for the social transformation. The analytic category as reference for this study development is hegemony/counter-hegemony by Antonio Gramsci and Boaventura de Sousa Santos. The relevance of the investigation the theme is justified as support for counterhegemonic movement future analyzes in education in Brazil and for the new educators generation
Este estudo de doutorado tem como objeto o campo contra-hegemônico em educação na década neoliberal analisado sob os aspectos histórico e político, orientado por pesquisas bibliográficas e entrevistas em profundidade realizadas com os teóricos-educadores: Dermeval Saviani (Pedagogia Histórico-Crítica), José Carlos Libâneo (Pedagogia Crítico- Social dos Conteúdos), Oder José dos Santos (Pedagogia da Prática ou Pedagogia dos Conflitos Sociais) e Lisete Regina Gomes Arelaro (Pedagogia Libertadora fundamentada por Paulo Freire). O tratamento teórico-metodológico, numa concepção dialética, apresenta as diferentes maneiras de ser contra-hegemônico a partir do conflito de ideias entre diferentes e não entre antagônicos, concebendo o papel social e político da educação na perspectiva da transformação social. A categoria analítica de referência para o desenvolvimento dessa tese é hegemonia/contra-hegemonia em Antonio Gramsci e Boaventura de Sousa Santos. Justificase a relevância na investigação do tema também como respaldo para futuras análises do movimento contra-hegemônico em educação no Brasil para as novas gerações de educadores

Full textAbstract:
Abstract. This thesis is a comparative discourse analysis on the books Pedagogy of the Oppressed by Paulo Freire and the Jesus Christ liberator by Leonardo Boff. This thesis looks into the contextual circumstances of these two Brazilian authors to find out: (1) the common aspects in their discourse; (2) the common language used, and (3) their significance and relevant contributions — having in perspective the Latin American realities, as well as today’s mainstream discourses in the times of globalization.
This thesis explores the dialogic relationship between the pedagogy of the oppressed and liberation theology — education and theology respectively — and the way they deal with issues such as poverty, oppression, authoritarianism, and all kinds of practices that do not foster and enhance emancipation, liberation, equality and the democratic participation of human beings.

This research presents Dom Helder Camara as an educator, through his works, staterments, litherary works and demonstrates how his political educational work ahead of the archdiocese of Olinda and Recife, along the military government (1964-1985), should be understood as an educational liberation work, according to the critical foundations of the freirean pedagogy. Pointing the relation Helder-Freire is relevant for education, because both took a similar way of had a trajectory on the constructing of similar proposals for a liberating church and a liberating education. Different paths with similar ideals. Both, in areas of extreme poverty, worked with the needy strata of society so that they could achieve, through the process of political awareness, that is, the critical understanding of reality, mechanisms to manage the necessary transformations to their lives. Historically, there has been a devaluation and disregard with education in Brazil. There s no quality education accessible to all, the interest in an education of outcome prevails, to the detriment of a comprehensive training education, which produces knowledge in harness with human training and promotion. Therefore, presenting Dom Helder as an educator and his political educational work corroborates and is corroborated by freirean pedagogy. The encounter between Helder and Freire demonstrates that the educational liberator helderean thought, analysed the basis of the freirean pedagogy, has significant contributions to the current Brazilian curriculum
Esta pesquisa apresenta dom Helder Camara como educador, por meio de seus trabalhos, pronunciamentos e obras literárias e demonstra como o seu trabalho político educacional frente à Arquidiocese de Olinda e Recife, no período do governo militar (1964-1985), deve ser entendido como um trabalho educacional libertador, segundo os fundamentos críticos da pedagogia freireana. Apontar a relação Helder-Freire é relevante para a educação, pois ambos tiveram uma trajetória na construção de propostas semelhantes em diferentes setores: a construção de uma igreja libertadora e a construção de uma educação libertadora. São caminhos diferenciados com ideais semelhantes. Ambos, em áreas de extrema pobreza, trabalharam com as camadas sociais carentes a fim de que elas adquirissem, por meio de um processo de conscientização política, isto é, a compreensão crítica da realidade, meios para realizar as transformações necessárias às suas vidas. Historicamente, há uma desvalorização e desconsideração com a educação no Brasil. Não há uma educação com qualidade acessível para todos, predomina o interesse pela educação de resultados em detrimento de uma educação de formação integral, que produza conhecimento atrelado à formação e à promoção humanas. Por isso, a apresentação de dom Helder como educador e do seu trabalho político educacional como uma proposta pedagógica libertadora solidária corrobora e é corroborada pela pedagogia freireana. O encontro de Helder e Freire demonstra que o pensamento educacional libertador helderiano, pensado à luz da pedagogia freireana, tem significativas contribuições a fazer para o atual currículo brasileiro

Previous issue date: 2010-11-19This research, of qualitative paradigm, is characterized as a bibliographical and documentary research. It was searched for historical, political and methodological information regarding the "Draft Orpheonic Singing" in Brazil looking, in the goals set for this style of musical teaching, for possible influences and/or ideological indoctrination of government prevailing in this period in Brazil. The data were analyzed based on Paulo Freire's Liberating Pedagogy. The overall objective is to demonstrate that musical activity of the "Project Orpheonic Singing" by Villa-Lobos, was used primarily as a means to instill ideology and not as an activity able to develop creativity and critical-reflexive consciousness of the student, real function of the music in the individual s formation. Thus, a critical analysis of the main objectives and also the music and text of three songs from the textbooks of that project was made considering Paulo Freire's Liberating Pedagogy.
Esta pesquisa, de paradigma qualitativo, caracteriza-se como uma pesquisa bibliográfica e documental. Nela foram buscadas informações históricas, políticas e metodológicas a respeito do Projeto Canto Orfeônico no Brasil procurando, nos objetivos traçados para essa modalidade de ensino musical, possíveis influências e/ou inculcação ideológica do governo vigente neste período no Brasil. Os dados foram analisados à luz da Pedagogia Libertadora de Paulo Freire. O objetivo geral é demonstrar que a atividade musical do Projeto Canto Orfeônico , de Villa-Lobos, foi prioritariamente utilizada como meio para incutir ideologias e não como uma atividade capaz de desenvolver a criatividade e a consciência crítico-reflexiva do educando, real função da música na formação integral do indivíduo. Para tal foi feito, à luz da Pedagogia Libertadora de Paulo Freire, uma análise crítica dos objetivos principais e, também, da música e texto de três canções do material didático do referido projeto.

The christianity of liberation can be considered a terminology to designate how actions of deliverance begins in matrix of christian religion catholic. In it, is implicit the concept of God is between people to provide experiences of deliverance of subject itself and in society. Procedural liberation that initiate liberating actions. Here, is more interesting action than faith. Think about christianity translate itself to think in salvific actions in oppressive situations. The faith that saves soul, but traps body, dont saved. The experiences spiritual devotionals, displaced of attitude of justice and love for the benefit of poor, passed through a difficult riddle of sense and social value in a concomitant historical period to emergence of theology of deliverance in Latina America. The church, in turn, condemned their best thinkers accusing them of unholy, because they cared too much about the social issue of subject-faithful. However, Christ himself prioritized save the social conditions of his followers. Christ thus gave emphasis to the subjects body. Your personal contact with his followers embody the truth of his words liberating. In that sense, one can say that Paulo Freire promoted a Christian education. A kind of liberation of poor mediated resource of word
O cristianismo de libertação pode ser considerado uma terminologia para designar como as ações de libertação surgem na religião de matriz cristã-católica. Nele, está implícito o conceito de que Deus encontra-se no meio do povo para proporcionar experiências de libertação do sujeito consigo e do sujeito na sociedade. Libertação processual que desencadeie ações libertadoras. Aqui, interessa mais a ação do que a fé. Pensar o cristianismo traduz-se por pensar em ações salvíficas em situações opressoras. A fé que salva a alma, mas aprisiona o corpo não salvou. As experiências espirituais devocionais, deslocadas das atitudes de justiça e de amor em favor dos pobres, passaram por um difícil crivo de senso e valor social, em período histórico concomitante ao surgimento da Teologia da Libertação na América Latina. A igreja, por sua vez, condenou seus melhores pensadores acusando-os de profanos, pois estes preocupavam-se demais com a questão social dos sujeitos-fiéis. Entretanto, o próprio Cristo priorizou salvar as condições sociais dos seus seguidores. Cristo, assim, deu destaque ao corpo do sujeito. Seu contato pessoal com os seus seguidores materializam a verdade de suas palavras libertadores. Nesse sentido, pode-se dizer que Paulo Freire promoveu uma educação cristã. Uma espécie de libertação dos pobres mediada pelo recurso da palavra.

Full textAbstract:
The past two to three decades have seen unprecedented expansion in enrolments in Universities across the world. Increased participation rates in Higher Education, however, has not been matched by a corresponding increase in success rates as reflected in students' poor retention rates and unsatisfactory outcomes. One strand of explanation claims that students, for a variety of reasons, come to university `unprepared' and suffer an articulation gap in the transition between high school and university; the other explanation seeks to move away from the deficit perspective and puts emphasis on the need to enrich experiences of students to enable them to exercise agency and change constraining circumstances in order to succeed. This study reports on one programme, a grounding programme known as the Life, Knowledge and Action (LKA) in one South African university. One of the central purposes of the LKA is to enrich students' first year experiences through liberating dialogue embedded in its pedagogical architecture. A sequential mixed methods study was carried out. A survey of first year students who had been exposed to the LKA was first carried out. This was followed by a case study of purposively selected first year students. Findings show that LKA promoted dialogue in varied ways depending on the level of the pedagogical architecture. At Umzi level students as peers across disciplines exchanged ideas freely about their circumstances and social issues. At the Ekhaya level where the abakwezeli (facilitators) were active, power dynamics emerged between students and the facilitators which had the effect of diminishing dialogical moments. At village level, there was not much discussion; instead there was a lot of lecturing. Dialogue was limited to a few minutes of discussion at the end of the lecture. The other finding was that seen from Archer's lens of morphogenetic analysis, the `articulation gap' can be seen as a structural constraint, that can be addressed through liberating dialogue which enables the students to question the status quo. There was evidence that through dialogue in the LKA, students felt that it liberated them in the sense that it exposed them to different perspectives as well as enabled them to explore alternatives. It can be concluded that through an appropriately designed dialogical pedagogy, students can be empowered to transform the structural constraints to their education and create enablers that can help them succeed in their learning. There is evidence that within the LKA pedagogical architecture, the students have the opportunity to take responsibility for their learning and thus enabled to exercise agency. It is recommended that the processes that take place at each level of the LKA architecture must be further studied with a view to discovering mechanisms at work that may undermine the liberating thrust of the programme. As a liberating core curriculum, LKA must not be limited to first year students; consideration must be given to roll it out across the levels of the undergraduate offerings.

Full textAbstract:
Since the slave trade, African Americans have been the most media-stereotyped race of people. From that time, multiple forms of media have been used to convince Blacks of their inevitable servitude and Whites of their supremacy (Burrell, 2010), as a means of transferring physical slavery to mental slavery (Akbar, 1998). Additionally, African Americans have been the victims of a Eurocentric educational system essentially designed to “mis-educate” (Woodson, 1933)—to further oppress and devalue African and African American contributions to our global history. This qualitative research study aimed to analyze an existing curricular model known as Rise Above the Noise, which combines two educational pedagogies, African-centered (Murrell, 2002) and critical media (Morrell, 2008; Thoman, 2003a), and is designed to appropriately educate and mentally liberate African Americans whose ancestors were displaced by slavery. I adopted a critical race methodology (Delgado, 1995a;Yosso, 2006), utilizing video interviews, counterstorytelling, journaling, and a focus group as data collection tools, and analyzed data according to Banks’s (1982) model for appropriately educating the miseducated (as cited and summarized by Akbar, 1998), known as D-R-C (deconstructionist—reconstructionist—constructionist). Using a convenience sample of five African American young adults (ages 18-30) from Los Angeles, CA who were considered socioeconomically disadvantaged, I attempted to discover how the implementation of a combined African-centered/critical media literacy pedagogy could impel participants to transform their current life circumstances.

Our investigation has the main objective to understand the formation of the Circle Tutorial, a formative space that searches for knowledge, especially mathematical, construction through active actions of its members. The theoretical construction was predominantly based in the following authors: D'Ambrosio in the understanding of the spaces of the subjects through the ethnomathematics and dynamic curriculum; Freud with the process of seduction, transfer, identification, group formation, and others; and Freire in his liberator pedagogy, insertion, emancipation, critical and reflexive dialog. Such master's degree research was realized in a state school of the public teaching in the city of Goiânia-GO, contributing with the formation of a group with subjects who regularly share and live the school space. In this perspective, the starting point was to meet their realities in their stories of life. For this purpose it was developed focal groups. It also made possible that the subjects of the research could re-value and modify their way of building the knowledge, bringing the light to the facts, salutary points on the complexity of the formative process, to which students and educators share in the public state schools, as well as the possibility to form more critical, reflexive subjects who could conduct their learning and their story of their lives by themselves in their respective context of life.
Nossa investigação tem como objetivo principal compreender a formação do Círculo Tutorial, espaço formativo que busca a construção do conhecimento, em especial o matemático, por meio de ações ativas de seus integrantes. O constructo teórico se pautou principalmente nos seguintes autores: D’Ambrosio na compreensão dos espaços dos sujeitos por meio da etnomatemática e currículo dinâmico; Freud com o processo de sedução, transferência, identificação, formação de grupo, entre outros; e Freire em sua pedagogia libertadora, inserção, emancipação e diálogo crítico e reflexivo. Tal pesquisa de mestrado foi realizada em um colégio estadual da rede pública de ensino na cidade de Goiânia-GO, contribuindo com a formação de um grupo de sujeitos que vivenciam o espaço escolar. Dessa forma, o trabalho baseou-se nos pressupostos de pesquisa qualitativa participante, tendo como ponto de partida, conhecer suas histórias de vida, para tanto desenvolveu-se grupos focais. Portanto, construiu-se uma formação que fomentou a confiança e autonomia frente as atividades desenvolvidas pelos participantes envolvidos na pesquisa.

Full textAbstract:
The dissertation deals with the issue of reflection, democracy and educational drama. The overarching aim of the dissertation is to investigate whether educational drama may be perceived as fostering democratic values in the literature and curricula.
The dissertation shows that, based on various different theoretical and philosophical values, an interplay does exist between the goals for an activity and the choice of content and work method, which creates a number of opportunities for reflection in the various different perspectives of educational drama. It also indicates, however, that attitudes towards educational drama shift in the different curricula, where the artistically oriented perspective is the one most sought after. As a result, education in democratic values, which does not necessarily problemize social and political issues, is demanded from educational drama.
The literature analyses made in the dissertation reveal four perspectives. Within the artistically oriented perspective, a democratic potential exists in giving the individual tools with which to learn both how to achieve and to create knowledge. Every performance is a story about life and, for every performance the individual takes part in, his knowledge of art and human problems at different times and in different situations increases.
Within the personal development perspective the individual. acquires tools to understand himself in relation to others and to understand the connection between various dynamic processes occurring at individual, group and community levels. The aesthetic form as well as the participant s' own experience of life gives cause for adaptation and reflection.
The democratic potential contained in the critically liberating perspective are that the individual acquires the necessary tools to investigate both in word and deed power relationships in society and how such power relationships are made apparent in concrete human situations.
The idea of fostering democratic values contained in the holistic learning perspective is characterised by acquiring tools with which to understand the universal human significance behind every problem. In the communicative process, the varying language skills of the individual are developed, skills in which artistic expression is fundamental for understanding complex human situations.

Previous issue date: 2010-12-16The presented research is in line of search Teaching and Learning of Science and Mathematics of Postgraduate Program on Education in Science and Mathematics of Pro- Rectory for Research and Postgraduate Studies (PRPPG) of Federal University of Goiás. The developed study aimed investigate and reflect about the possibilities of articulation in between the mathematic knowledge and social, political, cultural and economic realities, through contextualized activities with aim in to valorize the students life contexts (background) and give voice to your yearnings, hopes and dreams (foreground). The central problem in the research is constituted as follows: can that articulation contribute to a learning with social meanings and culturally contextualized from mathematics, as to a critical reading and aware of the reality surrounding which encourage the student autonomy? Linked to this question, lies the research goal: investigate if the act of seeking meanings to a effective learning of mathematics through contextualized activities in the students sociocultural reality, plus your interests, contributes to that their knowledge be directed to a critical conscience and to a autonomous exercise of citizenship. This study is constituted by a qualitative approach of research, in the context of Ethnomatematics, Critical Mathematics Education and Dialogical Pedagogy-Liberating. The research has been made on public schools of Goiânia city (Goiás state) with a students class which moved from first to second year of high school during the conduct of research, being structured in two phases: Diagnosis (observation in the classroom, sociocultural questionnaire and diagnostic activity) and Pedagogical Intervention (thematic classes and the project The Mathematics and The Professions). The hope is that it comes against to the potential, the development, the curiosity and the creativity of people seeking a less compartmentalized world in areas of knowledge and life practices, looking for a world that can be understood in its diversity through education, valuing experiences, everyday experiences and dreams, recognizing the subject in your space, in your roots, your culture, your knowledges, your desires, to give "voice" and rescue on the students their right to citizenship, in order to have a society with more opportunities and fewer inequalities.
A pesquisa aqui apresentada se insere na linha de pesquisa Ensino e Aprendizagem de Ciências e Matemática, do Programa de Pós-graduação em Educação em Ciências e Matemática, da Pró-reitoria de Pesquisa e Pós-graduação PRPPG, da Universidade Federal de Goiás. O estudo desenvolvido buscou investigar e refletir sobre as possibilidades de articulação entre o conhecimento matemático e realidades sociais, políticas, culturais e econômicas, por meio de atividades contextualizadas que visaram valorizar os contextos de vida dos alunos (background) e dar voz aos seus anseios, esperanças e sonhos (foreground). O problema central de pesquisa se constitui do seguinte modo: a referida articulação pode contribuir para uma aprendizagem com significados social e culturalmente contextualizados da matemática, bem como para uma leitura crítica e consciente da realidade envolvente que favoreça a autonomia do aluno? Interligado a essa questão, situa-se o objetivo geral da pesquisa: investigar se o ato de buscar significados para uma efetiva aprendizagem da Matemática por meio de atividades contextualizadas na realidade sociocultural dos alunos, bem como em seus interesses, contribui para que os seus conhecimentos sejam direcionados rumo a uma consciência crítica e a um exercício autônomo de cidadania. A presente pesquisa se constituiu por uma abordagem qualitativa de pesquisa, na perspectiva da Etnomatemática, da Educação Matemática Crítica e da Pedagogia Dialógico-Libertadora. A pesquisa foi realizada em uma escola pública do município de Goiânia-GO com uma turma de alunos que transitou do primeiro para o segundo ano do Ensino Médio durante a realização da investigação, sendo estruturada em dois momentos: Diagnóstico (observação em sala de aula, questionário sociocultural e atividade diagnóstica) e Intervenção Pedagógica (aulas temáticas e o Projeto A Matemática e as profissões). A esperança que fica vem de encontro ao potencial, ao envolvimento, à curiosidade e à criatividade das pessoas que buscam um mundo menos compartimentado em domínios de conhecimento e em práticas de vida, almejando um mundo que possa ser compreendido em sua diversidade por meio da Educação, valorizando as vivências, experiências cotidianas e sonhos, reconhecendo o sujeito em seu espaço, em suas raízes, sua cultura, seus conhecimentos, seus desejos, para dar voz e resgatar nos alunos seu direito à cidadania, com a finalidade de termos uma sociedade com mais oportunidades e menos desigualdades.

A presente pesquisa refere-se ao processo de escolarização de crianças e jovens do assentamento Pirituba II, localizado nos municípios de Itapeva e Itaberá, região sudoeste paulista. Trata-se de um Projeto de Assentamento Rural (PA) que está sob a responsabilidade da Fundação Itesp, sendo resultado das ocupações de terras realizadas por famílias camponesas nos anos de 1980, as quais se organizaram em entidades sindicais, pastorais e no Movimento dos Trabalhadores Rurais Sem Terra (MST.) A educação básica tornou-se uma realidade no lugar, devido às lutas por direitos, organizadas, sobretudo, pelo MST. Desde as primeiras ocupações na Fazenda Pirituba, as famílias desenvolveram lutas pelo acesso à cultura letrada para as novas gerações do assentamento. No total são cinco escolas públicas que atendem os filhos dos camponeses assentados. Adentramos nessas escolas para analisar a natureza do projeto político-pedagógico das mesmas, com a pretensão de verificar se ocorreram práticas dialógicas entre educadores, educandos e famílias que participam do MST. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa de observação/participante. Tais procedimentos metodológicos, alinhados aos referenciais teóricos deste trabalho, possibilitaram-nos apresentar reflexões acerca dos encontros e desencontros entre a ação político-pedagógica de educadores e assentados. Palavras Chaves: Educação Escolar/ Assentamento Rural/ MST./Projetos pedagógicos/ Educação LibertadoraThis present research refers to the process of scholarization of children and youths from the settlement Pirituba II, placed in the cities of Itapeva and Itaberá, on the southwest of São Paulo The work is about a Project of Rural Settlement (PRS) wich is under the responsibility of Fundação Itesp. The project is a result from the occupation of earth made by peasant families during the 80´s and these families had organized themselves as trades, pastorals and on Movimento dos Trabalhadores Rurais sem Terra (MST) - Movement of Rural Workers Earthless.The basic education became a reality in this place, because of the fights for rights organized, specially, by MST. Since the first occupations of the Pirituba Farm, the families developed fights for having access to written word culture for the new generations of the settlement.We went to these schools to analyse the nature of the political-pedagogic project of them, intending to verify if there were dialogical practices between the educators, the students and the families that were part of MST. This is a qualitative research of observation and participation. The methodological procedures, together with the teories about this subject, allow us to think about the approaches and the distances between the political-pedagogic activities of the educators and the settlers.

The purpose of this is to analyze lhe "freireana" teaching-Ieaming concept, emphasizing its epistemological concepts linked to existential phenomenology. In other words, lhe reader will find a bibliographical research performed in lhe sense to search categories that will evidence ali lhe philosophical influences Paulo Freire had in his work. I hereby denominate this teaching-Ieaming concept of "existencial-phenomenology". Therefore, this text is divided into two maio chapters. The first chapter has lhe purpose to promete a general overview of lhe maio epistemological chains developed in western philosophy in modero times, reaching lhe "existencial-phenomenology", passing through empirics, rationalism, naturalism, Husserl's phenomenology and Marxism. The text has lhe intent to contextually show lhe maios ideas defended by "phenomenologyexistencial", showing how this philosophical chain stands face lhe current limitations in lhe epistemological chains that carne before. In lhe second chapter, there is a systematization of lhe "freireano" thinking emphasizing first lhe political category and then lhe teaching-leaming concerto We tried to demonstrate how lhe "freireano" teaching-Ieaming concept has a dimension that goes beyond conventional concepts in regards of contemplating lhe dialogic investigation of lhe curriculum as an essential element, therefore necessary, to lhe teaching-leaming processo After configuring lhe "freireano" teaching-leaming concept in ali its several dimensions (dialogic, dialogic construction ofthe curriculum, educator role and lhe relation educator-educated), I finish lhe work by analyzing lhe epistemological precepts of lhe "freireano" teaching-Ieaming concept linked to existential phenomenology. I present into categories lhe intension ofthe conscience, lhe being-in-the world, with-the-world and withthe- others, thé teaching-learning as knowledge act and others, are present in "freireano" thinking and serve as fundamentaIs so Freire could develop and legitimate his positions regarding his teaching-Ieaming concept and, therefore, his liberating pedagogy.
o intento desse trabalho é fazer uma análise da concepção freireana de ensmoaprendizagem enfatizando, os seus pressupostos epistemológicos ligados à fenomenologia existencial. Em outras palavras, nele o leitor ou a leitora encontrarão uma pesquisa bibliográfica feita no sentido de buscar em várias obras de Paulo Freire categorias que evidenciam as influências que ele sofreu da corrente filosófica, que aqui denominei de Fenomenologia Existencial, sobre a sua concepção de ensino-aprendizagem. Para tanto, esse texto divide-se em dois capítulos que se articulam. O primeiro capítulo tem como objetivo apresentar um panorama geral das principais correntes epistemológicas que se desenvolveram na história da filosofia ocidental a partir da modernidade, chegando até a Fenomenologia Existencial, passando pelo empirismo, pelo racionalismo, pelo naturalismo, pela fenomenologia de Husserl e pelo marxismo. Nele existe a intenção de contextualizar as principais idéias defendidas pela Fenomenologia Existencial, mostrando como essa corrente filosófica se posiciona frente às limitações presentes nas perspectivas epistemológicas anteriores a ela. No segundo capítulo, é feita uma sistematização do pensamento freireano dando ênfase primeiramente à categoria da politicidade e posteriormente ao ensino-aprendizagem. Procurou-se demonstrar como o conceito freireano de ensino-aprendizagem possui uma dimensão que vai além das concepções convencionais, na medida em que contempla o processo de investigação dialógica do currículo como um elemento essencial, portanto necessário, ao processo de ensino-aprendizagem. Depois de configurada a concepção freireana de ensino-aprendizagem em suas diversas dimensões (dialogicidade, construção dialógica do currículo, papel do educador e a relação educador-educandos), termino o trabalho analisando os pressupostos epistemológicos da concepção freireana de ensino-aprendizagem, ligados à fenomenologia existencial. Mostro como categorias como a intencionalidade da consciência, o ser-nomundo, com-o-mundo e com-os-outros, o ensino-aprendizagem como ato de conhecimento e outras, estão presentes no pensamento freireano e serviram como fundamentos para que Freire pudesse desenvolver e legitimar suas posições a respeito da sua concepção de ensino-aprendizagem e, portanto, de sua Pedagogia Libertadora.

This thesis seeks to define liberation theology, its evolution and its relevance in economically advanced and poor or emerging societies The focus is on Paulo Freire, the lay theologian, whose Pedagogy of the Oppressed, outlines the quest for conscienticao or critical consciousness through transformational education Freire, once considered a radical, developed a rapid method of teaching both literary and critical thinking skills to the poor and oppressed people of his native Brazil. His dialogical method, called co-intentional education, provides the skills needed for participation in destiny and in the democratic process unlike banking education that indoctrinates to continue the 'culture of silence' thus avoiding change, power sharing or threats to the prevailing cultural elite Also discussed are the anti-dialogic actions Freire warns about that prevent conscientization or transformation and are prevalent in developed and modern societies as well as poor and emerging onesacase@tulane.edu

March 2015This study aims to explore ideas of liberation in relation to the present tendencies of gender representation in Tango. I argue that the traditional pedagogic model, observed in Johannesburg, tends to perpetuate hegemonic discourses mainly through terminology in which gender binaries, codes and subjectivities are normalized. Such representations reduce, or even reject, plurality and diversity by sustaining specific power dynamics, necessarily related to the role of men and women. Tango is characterized by certain aesthetic elements described in this thesis, and here I prioritize the analysis of its role as a social dance, in the category of couples’ dances. I argue that couples’ dances are embedded in historically and socially constructed stereotypes; thus, the dynamics observed in balls are not capable of reflecting present gender complexities and identities. To do so, I first present a critical reflection of the history of couples’ dances and Tango, along with my own lived experience as a movement facilitator. Then, I present descriptions of the first phase of the research, the Performance as Research (PAR) project in which I aimed to deconstruct hegemony by challenging gender fixities. The PAR included creative processes, interviews, performance, media and textual production, and the main outcome was related to the pedagogy of dance, presenting the DE-GENDERED MODEL of teaching-learning. In the second phase of research, or what I call the fieldwork, I engaged with different methods, such as dance meetings based on investigative approaches, body mapping, micro-performance, group discussions and questionnaires to collect data together with a group of 9 participants. I made sense of all the information collected during PAR, and, given by participants during fieldwork, by correlating theories of performance, critical pedagogy, gender and queer studies, with the purpose of including collaborative pathways of embodiment.

This qualitative study of an adult literacy program, Literacy for Liberation, operated by a non-governmental organization and serving a marginalized demographic in Haiti, considered the impact of a literacy program designed to enhance technical and critical literacy skills while promoting communal and individual change. Data, collected in five open-ended interviews and two observations, focused on the contextual, logistical, and beneficial aspects of the program. Results were analyzed using markers from Freire’s framework of critical pedagogy: humanization, situated literacy, dialogue and consciousness-raising, and transformation. Findings revealed limited economic, social, and communal benefits, and that replication of the program may be possible if certain steps are followed. Overall conclusions demonstrated that expanding literacy programs in this setting can facilitate social and economic progress for previously illiterate adults and future generations, particularly where structural inequality is evident. Final recommendations included comparison studies of other programs and longitudinal research of descending generations.

Full textAbstract:
William Stetson Kennedy (1916-2011), an activist and muckraking journalist, focused on social and economic conditions in the South. In seven decades of activism, he fought for peace, workers’ rights, civil rights, and environmental protections. Kennedy collected oral histories as a folklorist with the Federal Writer’s Project, and he infiltrated the Ku Klux Klan and worked to get their state charters revoked. This project breaks new ground by bringing to light a neglected aspect of Stetson Kennedy’s work: his years (1943-1947) as the editorial director for the Political Action Committee of the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO-PAC). In this role, Kennedy fought against voting restrictions and informed workers about candidates and voting issues.
This dissertation explores several research questions: How are alphabetic, civic, and critical literacies activated and enhanced through labor rhetoric? In what ways are these three literacies connected? What are the implications of interconnected literate praxis in academic spaces and beyond? The writer employs archival research, primary field research, and critical theory. Using critical theory enables the writer to stake new claims about key concepts: the subject, agency, ideology, discourse, rhetoric, and literacy. This project enriches existing scholarship in rhetoric and composition through focusing on literacy programs in labor movements. Although labor unions have long provided instruction in reading, writing, history, and political economy, little work outside of history and sociology has been done on worker education. Literacy building outside the classroom has received some attention in rhetoric and composition, but the role that unions play in this process has been neglected.
In addition, this rhetorical biography provides an historical account of a writer who helped educate workers largely through the use of dialect, folklore, and other forms of vernacular/working-class discourse. Vernacular discourse must be recovered in order to rectify the privileging of academic/elite discourse and to end the longstanding silence about socioeconomic class in US society. Furthermore, this project connects rhetorical theory to rhetorical practice, what Paulo Freire called praxis. Ultimately, this project provides a new view of literacy by theorizing how three different literacies interact, as well as the implications of these interactions in classrooms and communities.

Full textAbstract:
This multi-year critical ethnographic study examined the development and use of oral languages, and academic, digital, and critical literacies among high school debaters who participated in the Ivy League Debate Institute (ILDI), an intense academic apprenticeship for low-income Black and Brown youth attending public high schools in a large northeastern city. The study documented and analyzed a high school intervention that sought to foster powerful readers, writers, speakers, and engaged citizens through critical debate education that embraces new literacies, critical theory, empirical research, community-based literacies, and Hip-Hop culture. In addition to documenting the language and literacy practices of the majority of students participating in the apprenticeship during an eight week summer workshop, the research also followed a subset of ILDI students over the course of three years as they participated in after school trainings, weekend debate tournaments, public presentations, and researched and practiced at summer debate institutes.
Drawing upon African American literacies and rhetoric(s) and sociocultural and critical education theories, this research investigated the role of critical debate in the development of participants’ academic literacies, civic engagement, and identities. A sociocultural lens that views learning as changing participation over time in communities of practice (Lave, 1991) was used to analyze a wide range of data: field notes and researcher memos from after school meetings and events; video recordings of meetings, public presentations and debate tournaments; online correspondence; student generated speeches, academic essays and research notes; and semi-structured interviews with participants elucidating on the role of the debate apprenticeship in the development of academic and critical literacies.
The study reveals the role of the critical debate apprenticeship in supporting students to become more dexterous users of multiple literacies, languages, and discourses, and to leverage these resources in academic and civic spaces for self- and social justice advocacy. The study expands what counts as academic discourse and literacy development to create more room for cultivating both literacies of access and social justice. Combining student-led instruction in evidence-based advocacy skills and print-based and new literacies with oral language and Hip-Hop can support participants in employing diverse cultural and linguistic practices and academic, new, and critical literacies to develop well-reasoned and persuasive texts that speak to social injustices, offering new possibilities for literacy education in high schools, first-year college classrooms, preservice teacher training, and in out-of-school spaces.

Full textAbstract:
The thesis deals with the theoretic concept of Contextual Pedagogy and its application in the context of a disempowered and marginalized society, the Ju/'hoansi ("Bushmen") of Nyae Nyae in North Eastern Namibia.
Contextual Pedagogy derives from the notion of Contextual Theology and is thus initially based on a pedagogical analysis of the KAI ROS-Document, whereby its sociopolitical content and its inherent methodology are being transferred into a context of pedagogy. Referring to theoretical concepts of Critical Theory and Liberation Pedagogy, Conditional Fields are being identified in a first analysis which determine
and explain the pedagogical situation in a colonial context of Apartheid South Africa. During a three-year qualitative field research, central aspects of Contextual Pedagogy are being applied within the framework of the development of a post-colonial and community-based school programme in Nyae Nyae, the Village Schools Project. This school programme comprises a curriculum for a teacher training course as well as a curriculum for Grade 1-3 learners in five selected villages of Nyae Nyae, and is based on the dynamic processes between the communities, the Student Teachers and the author as their Teacher Trainer and Village Schools Co-ordinator. A further theoretical evaluation and reflexion of the field research gives rise to a pedagogical superstructure of Contextual Pedagogy, which also investigates the notions of power, empowerment and over-empowerment within a context of development work. By doing so, the previous Conditional Fields of pedagogic work within a theoretical framework of Contextual Pedagogy become extended in relevance for a pedagogical context of a post-colonial society with special reference to marginalized subjects. In conclusion, the finalization of the research project and its subsequent handing-over process to the Namibian government analyzes the paralyzing effects of an excessive bureaucracy, and the resurgence of conservative and colonial thought in the young and fragile democracy of Namibia.Educational Studies

As founder and director of the Youth Media Literacy Project and a self-titled Imagitator (one who agitates imagination), I have spent over 10 years teaching media literacy in various high schools, universities, and community centres across North America. This study will focus on my own personal practical knowledge (Connelly & Clandinin, 1982) as a culture jammer, educator and cancer survivor to illustrate my original vision of a ‘holistic media literacy pedagogy’. This research reflects on the emergence and impact of holistic media literacy in my personal and professional life and also draws from relevant interdisciplinary literature to challenge and synthesize current insights and theories of media literacy, holistic education and culture jamming.

A condição humana tem como características inerentes a sua finitude e vulnerabilidade. Em diversos momentos da História, houve um abuso da heterogeneidade social na acentuação dessas componentes, perpetuando mecanismos de ostracização, dominação e exclusão.
A vida e ensinamentos de Jesus de Nazaré centralizaram esta questão, constituindo, pela perspetiva da sua opção preferencial pelos últimos da sociedade, a premissa fundamental da Teologia da Libertação. O influxo desta via teológica teve alcance interdisciplinar, motivando inovações no campo educativo, com a sistematização de uma educação libertadora.
Uma pedagogia libertadora de inspiração cristã consubstancia-se como uma perspetiva cujo contributo ao sistema escolar se afigura como uma mais-valia, despertando esperança no esbatimento das desigualdades sociais, bem patentes no paradigma social hodierno. É nesta base que se desenvolve o presente Relatório da Prática de Ensino Supervisionada, e também nela que assenta a releitura da Unidade Letiva 2 do 6º ano “Jesus, um Homem para os outros”.The human condition has inherent features such as its finitude and vulnerability. In several historical moments, an abuse of the diverse social accentuation of that componentes occured, perpetuating mecanisms of ostracization, domination and exclusion. The life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth concerned central relevance to this point, constituting, by the perspective of its preferential option for the last in the society, the fundamental premise of the designated Liberation Theology. The influx of this theological point of view had interdisciplinary range, motivating innovations in the educational field with the systematization of a liberating education. A liberating pedagogy with christian inspiration constitutes itself as a perspective which contribute to the scholar system reveals itself as a positive increment stimulating hope on fighting social inequalities well exposed on the hodiernal social organization. It is on this basis that this Report of the Supervisioned Lectural Practic develops itself and it is on that point too that the rereading of the second Unit of 6th grade “Jesus, a Man for the others” grounds its reflexion.
