TEACHING TOWARD FREEDOM(ISBN=9780807032695) 英文原版 下载 pdf 百度网盘 epub 免费 2025 电子书 mobi 在线

For William Ayers, noted educator and activist, "the allure of

teaching, that ineffable magic drawing me back to the classroom

again and again, issues from an ideal that lies directly at its

heart: Teaching, at its best, is an enterprise that helps human

beings reach the full measure of their humanity."

In Teaching Toward Freedom, Ayers illuminates the hope as well as

the conflict that characterize the entire project of education: how

it can be used in authoritarian and dehumanizing ways in the

service of the state, the church, or a restrictive existing social

order-an idea he abhors-or, as he envisions it, as an undertaking

to help students become more fully human, more engaged, more

participatory, more free. Drawing on his own classroom experiences

and those of his many colleagues, as well as on popular culture,

film, poetry, and novels, Ayers redraws the lines concerning how we

teach and why, and the surprising things we uncover when we allow

students to become visible, vocal authors of their own texts and

creators of their own lives.

"Committed and aware teachers," Ayers argues, "must endeavor to

accomplish two crucial tasks. One is to convince students . . .

that there is no such thing as receiving an education as a passive

receptor or an inert vessel-in that direction lies nothing but

subservience, indoctrination, and worse. All real education is and

must always be self-education. The second task is to demonstrate to

students . . . that they are valued, that their humanity is

honored, and that their growth, enlightenment, and liberation are

the paramount concern. We take the side of the student. . . ." This

lucid and inspiring book will help teachers at every level to

realize that ideal.--From the Hardcover edition.
