Topic: Student Power
Team: Nick Gamba
Thesis: Professors can make the students feel more empowered by assigning more group activities, discussions, and presentations instead of lectures which, according to Freire, would also allow them to become greater learners.
Quotes: “The capability of banking education to minimize or annul the students’ creative power and to stimulate their credulity serves the interests of the oppressors, who care neither to have the world revealed nor to see it transformed,” (Freire 2).
“Any situation in which some individuals prevent others from engaging in the process of inquiry is one of violence,” (Freire 6).
