“... teaching cannot be a process of transference of knowledge from the one teaching to the learner. This is the mechanical transference from which results machinelike memorization, which I have already criticized. Critical study correlates with teaching that is equally critical, which necessarily demands a critical way of comprehending and of realizing the reading of the word and that of the world, the reading of text and of context.” WorldWayReadingProcessRealizingResultsLearningStudyTeachingDemandCriticalLearnersOf ContextComprehendingTransferenceMemorization Book:Teachers as Cultural Workers: Letters to Those who Dare Teach Source: Teachers as Cultural Workers: Letters to Those who Dare Teach

“You must learn to look at people who are angry with you straight in the eye without getting angry back. When children see their parents treating them this way, they then recognize the parents' authority. It speaks louder than words. Their new respect for the parents is as good for them as it is for the parents. It never works to demand respect of children. It must be given willingly as a result of strength of good character in the parents, which is manifested by their non-reaction to stress in the children.” PeopleWayLooksChildrenCharacterEyeSpeakGivenParentResultsDemandAuthorityStressAngryReactionsBack WhenGood Character Author:Roy Masters

“The NSF study projected a shortfall of 675,000 scientists and engineers without considering the future demand for such individuals in the marketplace. It simply observed a decline in the number of 22-year-olds and projected that this demographic trend would result in a huge shortfall. This could be termed the supply-side theory of labor market analysis. But making labor market projections without considering the demand side of the equation doesn't pass the laugh test with experts in the field.” YearsIndividualSidesResultsNumbersLaughingStudyFieldsTheoryHugeDemandLaborTestsScientistAnalysisExpertsTrendsDeclineEngineersConsideringEquationsProjectionMarketplaceDemographicsScientists And Engineers Author:Howard Wolpe

“We can change our thinking. Rather than viewing the chemical adulteration of our environment and our bodies as the inevitable practice of convenience and progress, we can decide that cancer is inconvenient and toxic pollution archaic and primitive.

“The common people feel themselves oppressed by the grasping of some, and their vanity is flattered by others. Fired with evil passions, they are no longer willing to submit to control, but demand that everything be subject to their authority. The invariable result is that government assumes the noble names of free and popular, but becomes in fact the most execrable thing, mob rule.” PeopleFeelsFactsGovernmentPassionEvilNamesResultsCommonSubjectsWillingDemandAuthorityAssumingNobleVanitySubmitOppressedGraspingFlatteredMob Rule Author:Polybius
