Abstract "Education is naturally transformative, but the acquisition of new skills and construction of new knowledge are only possible when we empower students, instead of forcing their conformity. Our current compliance-based teaching methodologies rely on coercion, conditioning and external motivators that engender submission and fear in students and teachers. These practices are divisive and destructive to the learning process. This book discusses ways of replacing the banking model of instruction with new approaches, valuing the identity, dignity, and humanity of our students"-- Provided by publisher.
