Although this
class is a continuation of the Patience
program from the academic year, it is also open to new students wishing
to participate in this pedagogy.
We will ask students to take a very
personal stake in their educational development, and this is not a
program for students looking for an external, faculty-given pedagogical
structure. Students will pay special attention to what individual
and
group work they plan on doing, how they plan to learn, how they
will
know they learned it and what difference the work will make in their
lives and within their communities. Students will be encouraged to
assume responsibility for their choices. Faculty and students together
will work to develop habits of worthwhile community interaction in the
context of the education
process and liberation. The faculty are
interested in providing an environment of collaboration where faculty
and students will identify topics of mutual interest and act as
partners in the exploration of those topics.
