Today my discussion group and I discussed the topic if we agree or disagree on the different ways Freire believes students learn. As a group we all believed that yes the banking concept is one of the many ways a student learns, but we also agreed that this is to the only way that students can learn. some other ways that we felt are how students learn is through one on one interaction which we thought was a great way for students to learn because when one on one with a teacher it is easier for the teacher to interact with the learner and this makes it more efficient for the student to get the concept of the subject. Another way a student can learn is through group activities. Group activities are great because it not only gives you and your peers a challenge as you work on a project or a discussion together. But it also gives each and every student a chance to hear the different opinions of the other students. When being able to listen to other students talk it gives every other student a chance to learn from someone that is in the same shoes as you. That is why I believe that the discussion groups we are doing for effective writing is such a. good idea. Without the discussion groups I do not think that I would understand the concepts of the readings we’ve been doing if it wasn’t for the discussion groups
