Besides protecting the main characters‚ the personas used serve

There are many controversies about education some people believe children should be taught by the "banking" concept

Dead Poets Society (1989) is a film about the pupils of a dissident new English Teacher‚ John Keating‚ in a preparatory school. It is implicitly stated in Freire’s writing that students
