The solution is not in the banking concept. Students are taught that they have their own opinions and can make up their own minds. When in fact that is not true. The teachers are the ones who think for the students, giving them the illusion that they are thinking for themselves. Why is it that it takes one person to teach 25 to 30 students, and out of that 25 to 30 students less than one percent can come up with the idea that they have a mind of their own.
Education is a system of oppression.
You are only taught what the teachers want you to know. You only learn what you can comprehend of what is taught and it can only be applied if you follow the rules of the game. I feel that if we, that is students are going to be taught, then teach us everything. Don t teach us parts of the truth or give us one side of the story. Freire is telling us that we are basically being lied to.
