Testimonials from Our Students…

“to educate [for] citizenship is to educate to ethics, solidarity, and participation… [I am reminded] that the quality of education is not evaluated by its "materiality" but by the values that are shared among the educational community, no matter if these are in a traditional K-12 public system, in a NGO, community centers, churches or any other arena that is [engaged] with the processes of social development.

“I’m better informed about issues and theory, research and politics.  I feel empowered to make changes beginning in [my] classrooms.”

“I feel as though I have the ability to stand up for my students, families, etc. whereas before I was worried about rubbing anyone the wrong way.  Research which has been provided in classes has made what I have to say much more powerful and meaningful.  I am able to inform other educators about what I have been learning so that we can take a stronger stand against issues which arise.  I have even provided research to staff members so that they can learn.”
