This course introduces the practice of critical, engaged pedagogy, and trains students in a methodology of facilitating academically rigorous, community-engaged learning circles in the context of the university. The aim of critical teaching/learning is to promote the practice of critical solidarity, justice and community. Through this course, students will learn to apply theoretical concepts of critical pedagogy as they develop specific skills in preparation for acting as peer facilitators of critical, self-reflective learning about structural injustice and community organizing. This course requires an application process.
