Freire is mentioning the unjust world of education and how\nthe education system is a system of oppression. The metaphor presented is that\neducation is like a bank where information is continuously deposited into\nstudents, but then that information just sits there and thus education becomes\nan act of power by giving all the power to the depositors (teachers). Freire\nsays \u201ceducation [is] the exercise of domination\u2026 indoctrinating them to adapt to\nthe world of oppression\u201d (3). In a school setting, the students usually don\u2019t\nquestion the material that\u2019s being presented and by being fed information\nwithout asking to apply it in the outside world, the educators are suppressing\nour consciousness and awareness of reality. If we are oppressed from the start\nof our education, we are less likely to question matters outside of an\neducational setting. So, Freire suggests education should be more of a collaborative\nlearning experience between teacher and student. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
