4.What do you think Freire means by his quote?
ReplyDeleteI think that it means the relationship between a teacher,who teaching and giving, and students,who taught and taking, was over.
"Teacher-student with students-teachers" is the new relation between them that a teacher is taught something by his/her students and the students teach something for their teacher.
This is so interesting idea for me.

ReplyDeleteI think Mr. Paulo Freire wants to express that one teacher is a student in front of students, though his denomination is “teacher”. Students have broad knowledge actually, and sometimes ask what a teacher can’t answer, which lets him notice that he learns something from students.
