Any Attempt To Treat People

Experience Teaches Us Not To Assume That The Obvious Is Clearly Understood

Teachers And Students (leadership And People), Co-intent On Reality, Are Both Subjects, Not Only In The Task Of Unveiling That Reality, And Thereby Coming To Know It Critically, But In The Task Of Re-creating That Knowledge. As They Attain This Knowledge Of Reality Through Common Reflection And Action, They Discover Themselves As Its Permanent Re-creators.

In Problem-posing Education, People Develop Their Power To Perceive Critically The Way They Exist In The World With Which And In Which They Find Themselves; They Come To See The World Not As A Static Reality, But As A Reality In Process, In Transformation.

Dehumanization, Although A Concrete Historical Fact, Is Not A Given Destiny But The Result Of An Unjust Order That Engenders Violence In The Oppressors, Which In Turn Dehumanizes The Oppressed

The Teacher Is No Longer Merely The-one-who-teaches, But One Who Is Him/herself Taught In Dialogue With The Students, Who In Turn While Being Taught Also Teach. They Become Jointly Responsible For A Process In Which All Grow.
