HW 50

Gatto

i agree with alot of what gatto was saying. a few things that he said were how school should not be a place where you hate going, it should be a place where you want go to and learn interesting things in school while also learning about the outside world. another thing that he saids is how homeschoolers have it less bad than people who go to public school because they don't have to endure what we go through.

Freire

From what i understood a few things that he was saying was how teachers are meant to fill the student with content and also how students are forced to memorizes and repeats phrases without really understanding what they really stand for. another thing that he mentions is how the teachers are the ones in control and they are the ones who bestowed the gift of knowledge to the students.


Delpit

one of delpit goals is to try to give African Americans in low income family's a good education. one thing that she saids that i do agree with is ""If teachers make judgments only according to the tests being inflicted on the children by the schools, then they can misunderstand their children's brilliance." which i agree with because students have different strengths in different areas so some students could be a good test taker and some are not and if teachers were to judge just on that than they would be missing some of the strenghts of the students.
