    It is important to show students how women in history have had an impact in their lives today. This site is a great resource for students and teachers.

    I am so happy this is one to share. Women history is very important because it seems like most students think of Men in history. This is another great resource for us-I think I may share this with some current teachers now to see if they can use it.

    I like this site because it talks about Canada and the pioneer life. It's easy to think that pioneers were only in the US. We need to expand our thinking which this site does a great job helping us learn more about pioneers in Canada.

Critical pedagogy: schools must equip students to challenge the status quo | Teacher Ne... - 0 views

critical classroom implement doing schools cultural literacy opinion

shared by Bill Olson on 24 Sep 21 - No Cached
  • The pedagogy popularised by E.D.Hirsch, and recently promoted by the likes of Civitas, reduces teaching into nothing more than a bleak transmission model of learning.
  • "cultural literacy".
  • But Hirsch's "cultural literacy" is a hegemonic vision produced for and by the white middle class to help maintain the social and economic status quo.
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • Young people who enter the educational system and don't conform to this vision are immediately disadvantaged by virtue of their race, income or chromosomes.
  • Moreover, teaching a prescribed "core knowledge" instills a culture of conformity and an insipid, passive absorption of carefully selected knowledge among young people.
  • The narcissistic notion that we can help underprivileged students by providing them with teachers who are privileged young graduates from elite institutions is a mistake.
  • Teachers can't ignore the contexts, culture, histories and meanings that students bring to their school.
  • Working class students and other minority groups need an education that prepares them with the knowledge of identifying the problems and conflicts in their life and the skills to act on that knowledge so they can improve their current situations.
  • School leaders have a duty to promote learning that encourage students to question rather than forcing teachers to lead drill-oriented, stimulus-and-response methodologies.
  • Students need the freedom and encouragement to determine and discover who they are and to understand that the system shouldn't define them – but rather give them the skills, knowledge and beliefs to understand that they can set the agenda.
  • The philosophy was first described by Paulo Freire and has since been developed by the likes of Henry Giroux, Peter McLaren and Roger Simon. Critical pedagogy isn't a prescriptive set of practices – it's a continuous moral project that enables young people to develop a social awareness of freedom. This pedagogy connects classroom learning with the experiences, histories and resources that every student brings to their school. It allows students to understand that with knowledge comes power; the power that can enable young people to do something differently in their moment in time and take positive and constructive action.

      What types of technology or trends will you use in your classroom?

      I love TED talks myself as something to use. I also plan to use a family connection app to reach out to parents, or at least texting parents. Keeping track and learning to use whatever new tech is being used by students is something I am planning on doing. I have no real idea on what is coming next for tech but I am planning on using it as best as I can.

    Hi, Debi! I also love TED Talks like Joe and because of that I'm a little sad I may not be able to include them in my classroom if I teach in the primary grades like I hope to do. Where I'm at now, I hope that technology will be a help and not in a hindrance in my classroom. I think that using YouTube projected on the Smart Board would be a great way to show read alouds of books I don't have in the classroom, for kids yoga, Go Noodle, chromebooks for ABCYA, playing music for cleanup or relaxing music during writer's workshop, using an Amazon Echo in the classroom for music and timers as well as a break time for kids to ask it questions, etc. I've heard from my mentor school that they use Class Dojo to stay updated with parents and I hope to learn more about that. I know that Google Classroom is great and is what my mentor school used for distance learning.

  • Paulo Freire (1921–1997) was a champion of what’s known today as critical pedagogy: the belief that teaching should challenge learners to examine power structures and patterns of inequality within the status quo.
  • Remember that teachers and children are both learners:
  • Develop their critical literacy

  • Use first names in your school
  • opening your own eyes to the injustices around us
  • When you start to notice how one dominant group in society may be imposing a culture or worldview on everyone else, you can begin to resist it.
  • Encourage active enquiry and curiosity-lead participation:
  • Admit that the teacher doesn’t know everything
  • Give choice
  • Make project work research-oriented
  • Think carefully about texts, clips, and other resources you use
  • Introduce the vocabulary of critical literacy
