Aims: The purpose of transformative education is to empower learners to see the social world differently and through an ethical lens, so that they will challenge and change the status quo as agents of change.]]> 2022-02-26 11:02:02 UTC https://padlet.com/brkkrblgn/tqa1s9khxxfnfg9t/wish/2067439917 brkkrblgn https://padlet.com/brkkrblgn/tqa1s9khxxfnfg9t/wish/2067442106 Definition: It is a sub-context to Multicultural Education that aims to see if the goals of Multicultural Education are achieved.

It doesn't just ask questions but offer answers as well.

- Critical pedagogy tries to raise awareness on the whole learning process while the other two only focus on their respective areas of interest.

- Critical pedagogy looks like it has more of a philosophical approach then the other two.

- While Transformative learning and critical pedagogy are things of their own, Critical multicultural learning seems like it is just a sub-context of Multicultural learning. 

- Although in different contexts, all three try to raise awareness.]]> 2022-02-27 12:35:58 UTC https://padlet.com/brkkrblgn/tqa1s9khxxfnfg9t/wish/2068141132
