当公共利益受到攻击，人们似乎对社会契约或任何其他具有公民意识的公共价值和更大的共同利益的投资越来越冷漠时，教育必须被视为不仅仅是一种证书或通往工作的途径，而教育学也不仅仅是为了考试而教学。与高风险测试等压制教学法不同，批判教学法在很大程度上被视为新自由主义形式的纪律，以促进一致性和限制想象力，批判教学法必须被视为理解和克服当今许多年轻人所面临的机构、政治和历史记忆危机的关键。当代教育工作者和学生面临的挑战之一是，需要重新发挥教育在培养批判性素养和公民能力方面所发挥的历史作用。教育必须动员学生批判性地参与，关注重要的社会问题，并警惕深化和扩大充满活力的民主的意义和实践的责任。这一挑战的核心问题是教育在民主国家应该实现什么目标。在一个基本上已经放弃了平等主义和民主冲动的世界里，怎样才能教育年轻人挑战权威，抵制教育只是培训的观念，并将公共教育和高等教育重新定义为民主的公共领域？点击这里，在《每月评论》网站上购买本文的PDF版本。
At a time when the public good is under attack and there seems to be a growing apathy toward the social contract or any other civic-minded investment in public values and the larger common good, education has to be seen as more than a credential or a pathway to a job, and pedagogy as more than teaching to the test. Against pedagogies of repression such as high-stakes testing, which largely serve as neoliberal forms of discipline to promote conformity and limit the imagination, critical pedagogy must be viewed as crucial to understanding and overcoming the current crises of agency, politics, and historical memory faced by many young people today. One of the challenges facing the current generation of educators and students is the need to reclaim the role that education has historically played in developing critical literacies and civic capacities. Education must mobilize students to be critically engaged agents, attentive to important social issues and alert to the responsibility of deepening and expanding the meaning and practices of a vibrant democracy.… At the heart of such a challenge is the question of what education should accomplish in a democracy.… In a world that has largely abandoned egalitarian and democratic impulses, what will it take to educate young people to challenge authority, resist the notion that education is only training, and redefine public and higher education as democratic public spheres?Click here to purchase a PDF version of this article at the Monthly Review website.
