This unit explores the potential power of education to transform both personal and social-political realities and considers education as a tool for changing deeply held (and sometimes denied) prejudices such as racism, sexism or homophobia. It covers theories and includes examples of consciousness-raising, dialogue and non-traditional community education; techniques which can be used in working with community groups; and theatre, storytelling, problem posing education, critical pedagogy, sentimental education and dialogue. -- Course Website
