Title
Feminist Pedagogy in University Classroom: Understanding the Classroom as a Place
Where Knowledge is Created as Opposed to Knowledge Being Delivered to Students
Synopsis
The purpose of this paper is to look at Feminist Pedagogy, which is an exploratory and interactive form of teaching. This paper compares feminist pedagogy in contrast to the traditional method of teaching— lecturing, so I will use it only as a comparison of how feminist pedagogues ensure that teaching is about dialogue and cognitive learning instead of only a teacher speaking and students listening.
