Quote

"I think my generation, and those who followed, have changed the understanding of what school is and what it does in society. That is, I believe we have substantially changed the conversation. I don't think mainstream scholars, politicians or reformers could argue with legitimacy today that education has nothing to do with the political-economic contexts of schools and neighborhoods. And it would be difficult to assert convincingly that race, societal class and gender do not impact learning in significant ways. School, it is now widely understood, is an institution that is not socially neutral, but tends to be strongly supportive of the system and its mainstream ideas--and thus, those who profit most from these" (Anyon).

Part 1: Introduction and Highlights

Jacqueline Jordan Irvine is currently a professor of urban education at Emory University and the recipient of many awards. Her most popular piece of work is her book titled Educating Teachers for Diversity, which was published in 2003.

Part II: Impact and Influence

Dr. Irvine's major claim to her research is that culture, race, ethnicity and social class influence the teaching and learning processes. I believe in the 21st century, this is an important idea as it was once believed that such factors had no bearing and teachers should be colorblind. She has published most of her work regarding the above issues and why they are important. Jordan suggests in this book, her other book titled "Culturally Responsive Teaching" not only the importance, but how such aspects can be implemented in the classroom and even provides lesson plans for classrooms.

Educating Teachers for Diversity: Seeing with a Cultural Eye

Maxine's career began in 1965 when she joined the Teachers College at Columbia University. She served as the only female among a sea of male colleagues who thought her way of thinking was "too literary." Fortunately, their comments didn't stop her from sharing her voice. According to the New York Times, "...[Maxine is] one of the most important education philosophers of the past 50 years."

After her passing, her colleagues from the Teachers College said, "Maxine's brilliant vision of art as a means to awaken each of us how we respond to the world and endure as her greatest legacy."

As a teacher, Greene's philosophy was to teach students to use their own voice in both their speaking and writing, as opposed to mimicking or conforming to the voices of others. In other words, staying true to yourself.

In 1976, Greene was a "Philosopher-In-Residence" at the Lincoln Center Institute for the Arts in Education. She spent the majority of the time conducting workshops focused on "Literature as Art" in addition to holding summer sessions for students. Throughout this period, one of Greene's most important accomplishments was inspiring the creation of the "High School of Arts" creating a new vision for the typical public school.

By 1984 after many years of teaching, Greene became the FIRST female president of the American Educational Research Association in its 31 years of existence.

Although this does not even begin to cover Maxine Greene's accomplishments, it's an overview of her teaching philosophy and how far this took her.

"A democratic education means that we educate people in a way that ensures they can think independently, that they can use information, knowledge, and technology, among other things, to draw their own conclusions".
