HD 563 - Advanced Studies in Education for Critical Consciousness


3 credits
Education for Critical Consciousness is grounded in the works of John Dewey, Paolo Freire and Sylvia Ashton Warner, all of whom believed that people learn through what they are passionate about. Students will critique and evaluate the work of these theorists along with that of other theorists who have similar beliefs about such issues as moral development, relationships and literacy and curriculum.
