Feminist Pedagogy – Online

Tenets:

Building equity, trust, mutual respect, and support. Presenting knowledge as constructed. Honoring diversity and lived experiences through intersectional approaches. Examining the “why” in addition to the “what”.

Annotation:

Educator Kathleen Weiler deconstructs Western knowledge systems using a feminist lens. In this work she references Paulo Freire, a Brazilian educator and philosopher, who was a leading advocate of critical pedagogy. By using her feminist lens, she is able to add a bit more breadth to Freire’s pedagogy. Her critiques are broken down into three sections: questioning of authority, personal experience as a source of knowledge, and exploration of the perspectives of a wider range of demographics.
