There is no doubt that our world is becoming increasingly more
connected through digital technologies. For meaningful
participation in this environment we need to be digitally literate,
yet there are many children in developing countries who have yet to
touch a computer because of social disadvantage. For these
children, schools are the only place where they can build this
capacity. Regrettably, many schools in these communities are under
resourced. They do not have sufficient and relevant library books,
let alone digital resources. As a consequence, teaching and
learning strategies have remained unchanged for decades. The field
of critical pedagogy evolved through the initial work of Paulo
Freire. This theory is underpinned by critical thinking about
societal issues followed by action and reflection. When citizens
are armed with such knowledge and skills, they can positively
impact on the lives of the underprivileged. Critical pedagogy,
however, is still struggling to find its meaningful place,
particularly in higher education. This is largely due to the lack
of effective strategies and critical educators. Share Engage
Educate is an auto-ethnography which presents accounts of the
initiatives that were undertaken to promote print and digital
literacy in rural and remote schools in eight developing countries.
It highlights the experiences of school leaders, teachers,
university staff and students, and globally minded citizens working
alongside local communities to enhance the quality of education for
over 15,000 children in these schools. This book explores how
critical pedagogy can unfold in educational spaces through
knowledge sharing, engaging and in the process educating all
stakeholders.
