Dangerous Minds In chapter 4‚ Freire begins to discuss freedom. Although he believes that it should have some limits‚ he wants us‚ as teachers‚ to give our students all the freedom they need. Watching the movie Dangerous Minds made me question where one draws the line and if we even have that choice over our students. In this movie we see how these students in her Academy class are "bright‚ challenging" students who actually turn out to be rowdy and disrespectful inner-city kids. These students

I completely agree with Freire’s argument that students are objects‚ just taking up space in a classroom. Under his hypothesis‚ in our current educational system‚ the student could only ever be as proficient as the teacher.

It encourages students to develop skills despite social class‚ backgrounds or race. Critical literacy originated from Paolo Freire (1985). It also encourages readers to question the information they come across rather than passively accept it.
