On Monday the Digital Literacy for ALL Learners research assistants and I
discussed some of the similarities and differences between
Dewey/Inquiry-based learning and Freire/popular education as it informs our
demystifying technology approach. This following a brief email dialog Chip
Bruce and I had on the topic late last week. Today I got a chance to read a
paper by Richard Kahn and Douglas Kellner, "Paulo Freire and Ivan Illich:
technology, politics and the reconstruction of education”. The paper also
periodically references Dewey, especially at the end as they envision a
reconstructed education. Very interesting reading that I’d love to discuss at
some point. I think it describes aspects of our collective approaches well.
