PEDAGOGY QUOTES
Pedagogy must be oriented not to the yesterday, but to the tomorrow of the child's development. Only then can it call to life in the process of education those processes of development which now lie in the zone of proximal development. ~ Lev S. Vygotsky
The technology itself is not transformative. It's the school, the pedagogy, that is transformative.~Tanya Byron
That's at the core of equity: understanding who your kids are and how to meet their needs. You are still focused on outcomes, but the path to get there may not be the same for each one. ~Pedro Noguera
Pedagogy is not about training, it is about critically educating people to be self reflective, capable of critically address their relationship with others and with the larger world. Pedagogy in this sense provides not only important critical and intellectual competencies; it also enables people to intervene critically in the world....Critical pedagogy becomes a project that stresses the need for teachers and students to actively transform knowledge rather than simply consume it. ~ Henry Giroux
