Building a Society of Solidarity through Critical Pedagogy: Group Teaching as a Social and Democratic Tool
Nikolakaki, Maria
Journal for Critical Education Policy Studies, v10 n2 p392-417 Oct 2012
Against the menacing shadow of neoliberalism, which promotes individualism and competition, the author illustrates in this paper the need for group teaching. Group teaching as a method of instruction and learning fosters community bonds, solidarity, and is more effective teaching. Group teaching is a democratic tool necessary for society to promote a new community for the people. (Contains 3 footnotes.)
