Here are guides for quoting source
and citing sources in your essay and on the works cited page in MLA.ASSIGNMENT FOR WRITING (5 full pages, double spaced)
“Surely all of us, anyone who has made it through twelve years of formal education, can think of a class, or an occasion outside of class, to serve as a quick example of what Freire calls the ‘banking’ concept of education, where students were turned into ‘containers’ to be ‘filled’ by their teachers. If Freire is to be useful to you, however, he must do more than enable you to call up quick examples. He should allow you to say more than that a teacher once treated you like a container or that a teacher once gave you your freedom” (Bartholomae and Petrosky, 1999).
Your assignment for this module is to write an essay that offers a rich perspective on the Freire reading that I have provided. The reading originally comes from Paolo Freire’s book The Pedagogy of the Oppressed, but I have given you an easy-to-access file from a textbook by Bartholomae and Petrosky. You can use their source for citation in your essay (unless you find Freire’s original book, which is not required).
Your rich perspective should include two things. First, include illustrative incidents from your own educational experience interpreted as Freire would interpret them. These should be examples of the “banking” concept and the more preferred “problem-posing” concept that Freire describes. You will need to provide careful detail: things that were said and done, perhaps the exact wording of an assignment, a textbook, or a teacher’s comments. And you will need to use the language of Freire’s argument, to take key phrases and passages and see how they might be used to explain your cases. Quote Freire in your discussion of the experiences. Second, Freire would not want you to fall in line with his ideas like you’re a robot. Generations of educators and students have cycled through schools since he wrote down these groundbreaking ideas. How has time tested them? Use your examples, in other words, as a way of testing and examining what Freire says, particularly those passages that you might want to challenge. This is your chance to provide scholarly criticism, agreeing and disagreeing with him as you see fit.
