The Power and Possibilities of Art-Based Community Participatory Research and Pedagogy in Preparing Critical Educators
Tue, April 21, 10:35am to 12:05pm, Virtual RoomSession Type: Roundtable Session
Abstract
This symposium explores the potential and possibilities of different forms of art-based activity (i.e., performing arts and film) for public engagement, for learning through social movement, and for creating opportunities for community activism. We draw on the work of Paulo Freire as we prepare critical educators to engage with community members in participatory research, pedagogy, and action, to promote conscientização and praxis and to take a stance of advocacy toward vulnerable populations.
