"The Banking Concept of Education" In Freire’s "The Banking Concept of Education" he discusses how education is an act of depositing information into student’s minds. It is a process where students receive‚ memorize‚ and repeat information. This type of system takes away from creativity‚ transformation‚ and knowledge in a person. The banking concept allows for educators to oppress and dominate their students. The more students store the deposits of information‚ the less they develop the critical

Freire’s "The Banking Concept of Education" We’ve all been students at some point in our lives‚ but how we are taught as students varies on the teacher and the technique. In the "Banking Concept of Education" it is stated that knowledge is a gift bestowed by those who consider themselves knowledgeable upon those whom they consider to know nothing‚ it also suggests that the thought of teachers teach and students are taught is old and outdated. I agree with Freire’s "Banking Concept of Education" in that

“This is a Battle‚ a War” In his essay “The ‘Banking’ concept of Education”‚ Freire introduced the readers two methods of teaching‚ that are “banking education” and “problem-posing education”. A “banking educator” makes the students mechanically memorize the information he or she unloads on them just like depositing in a bank‚ while a “problem-posing educator” inspires the students to be critical and aims for the liberation of society.

Creativity‚ and Originality The purpose of education has been debated throughout history. Criticisms endlessly emerge as society and the education system continues to develop. Many have voiced their positions on the subject and brought up different theories on education and what it should entail.

“This is the ‘banking’ concept of education‚ in which the scope of action allowed to the students extends only as far as receiving‚ filing‚ and storing the deposits” (244). Because of my “special” moment‚ a moment of humility that has haunted me through my educational career‚ school became an institution where I would go to memorize information but never really understood what I was being “taught”. I became a receptacle‚ a depository‚ and my teachers became the depositors. Education became a process

Part 1: After reading about the “Banking Concept of Education‚” as described by Paulo Freire‚ I have come to the conclusion that if you really want to go knee deep into a topic‚ you cannot have the information “deposited” into you by your teacher. Freire talked an excessive amount about questioning‚ critical thinking and consideration of information when talking about forms of learning that do not include the banking concept. This did make sense because when taking in facts that you know you are

“The “Banking” Concept of Education”: Destructive or Convstructive? After reading Paulo Friere’s essay‚ “The “Banking” Concept of Education‚” I have personally come to understand that his argument ultimately states that modern education is the chance for teacher or professors to “deposit” their knowledge into their students who submissively accept what they are taught without question. Freire believes that there is no shared knowledge between teacher and student; the path to knowledge is a one-way
