Tim is joined by Dr. Louise Taylor. Louise began her career as a teacher later managing a youth alternative education facility. Most of her working life has been in the tertiary education sector working with teachers and educational leaders to support and grow innovation and equity in their settings. Louise has a PhD in teacher professional learning for progressive social change and she is resolute about positioning social justice and equity at the centre of her work. She is currently working as a research and education consultant with contracts in management, research, design thinking and mentoring.
In the podcast after Tim somehow manages to talk about Rage Against the Machine, and the film The Matrix, Tim and Louise talk about practical steps to take to put Critical Pedagogy at the heart of your practice. A particularly interesting point to note is Louise talking about elevating your knowledge to a certain level of expertise, as many of you have in your most recent qualifications, then letting it go and acknowledging a different perspective, this is why you are so perfectly positioned to incorporate Critical Pedagogy into your practice. Frierie stated the only way to use that knowledge was through dialogue and then you can combine what you don’t know. Louise gives an excellent example of the value of knowledge in the podcast that you might like to try in your classes, as well as a way to address behavioral challenges through critical pedagogy.
