Re-searching the Familiar.

Shannon, Patrick

Language Arts, v67 n4 p379-87 Apr 1990

Explains how a teacher education course (designed by the author using an adaptation of Paulo Freire's problem-posing methods) actually hampered students' development and learning. Describes how together the class and teacher recognized the discrepancy between the teacher's rhetoric and the course realities and adjusted the course to fit students' needs. (MG)
