Critical Pedagogy

"Agog" is considered as a word root for leading, and pedagogy is equal to instruction. Critical pedagogy is to think deeply about the benefit of eduction. What education can do for our living nowadays? We know that modern society is complicated. Since the revolution of industry and the creation of computer, the machines take place of labour greatly. Many people tend to lose their jobs, while others collect their wealth through technology such that the gap between the rich and the poor widen than before. The education, however, plays a major role for social mobility that some people can promote their living levels to high standards. Eduction makes people awareness about their situations and acts as motivation tool. Teacher should be empowered to improve the system of the eduction. In Taiwan, we have seen many examples that some peolple take advantages of eduction and become later scholars, businessmen, and lawyers. I hope the education can separated from the political influences and provide more equal chances for our whole society.
