| Some thoughts on the role of education...
The first problem for all of us, men and women, is not to learn, but to unlearn.
-Gloria Steinem
I have never let my schooling interfere with my education
- Mark Twain
It is, in fact, nothing short of a miracle that the modern methods of instruction have not entirely strangled the holy curiosity of inquiry.
-Albert Einstein
Education either functions as an instrument which is used to facilitate integration of the younger generation into the logic of the present system and bring about conformity or it beocmes the practice of freedom, the means by which men and women deal critically and creatively with reality and discover how to participate in the transformation of their world.
- Paulo Freire |
