Topic selection:#3 Student/teacher relationships at WCU.
Team selection: Ethan Stein
Thesis: The teacher and student relationship at West Chester University is similar to most schools. A few ways Freire thinks the teacher and student relationship should be changed are the student should try talking about the lesson as though they were teaching it, the student should not memorize but instead learn the material, and the material should be of interest so they have the want to learn.
Quotes: The banking approach to adult education, for example, will never propose to students that they critically consider reality (Freire 2).
Worse yet, it turns them into “containers,” into “receptacles” to be “filled” by the teacher (Freire 1).
Group Member- Haley, Seamus, and David
Seamus- I feel that although I like your thesis statement, I feel that it is too broad and is lacking a potential solution to the problem . For your essay I feel that you should come up with maybe a simple solution that has detail on how it will solve the problem.
David- I feel like the quotes you picked from Freire’s writings are great details to support your thesis statement.
Haley- I like how your proposal focuses on how things need to change. That can be connected to Freire and how he is against the current education system.
