How to promote social justice and Freire's pedagogy in higher education. Examples of English teaching at the university
Journal Title: Práxis Educativa - Year 2019, Vol 14, Issue 1
Abstract
The current university education cannot remain separate from what happens in society. Consequently, the relationship between teaching content and social demands must be strengthened. We intend to introduce social justice in university teaching through the use of social texts in the teachinglearning process. These texts are related specifically to cultural differences, the reality of people in countries of the South and that of women in different countries. The use of multimodal texts in teaching is encouraged so that students learn to read texts in which images appear. For this reason, a proposal of activities carried out by university students of English Studies is made in order to deepen social justice, openness to other cultures and the acquisition of competences. This educational proposal is part of the critical pedagogy of Paulo Freire.
