Quotable quotesEducation and the global
economy are envisioned as having an interdependent
relationship. Competition in the global economy is
dependent on the quality of education, whereas the goals
of education are dependent on the economy. Under these
circumstances, education changes as the requirements of
the economy change. As a result, human capital theory
now dominates discussions of education for the global
economy. (6)

"Critical pedagogy is a process of learning and
relearning. It entails
a sometimes painful reexamination
of old practices and established
belief of educational institutions
and behaviors. Critical pedagogy causes one to make
inquiries about equality and justice. Sometimes these
inequalities are subtle and covert. The process requires
courage and patience. Courage promotes change and
democracy provides learners equal access to power."
Lily, a teacher, is cited in Joan Wink's
"Critical Pedagogy: Notes from the real world."
(Longman-1997-p. 60)
