mencabo,

I appreciate your work here with the question of how Freirian thinking can inform curriculum.  And I'm particularly taken with the idea that educators' work is to guide students to find 'fulfilling labor.'  This makes me think of the leadership curriculum you designed a few semesters ago; looking back at that now, would you associate it with the kind of endeavor you're wondering about here? 

In terms of the question of how leaders/teachers might 'do in order to accommodate different views of reality,' this raises for me the notion that we might see students more as individuals than Freire does, in his description of community cultures, localized themes, and so on. I wonder what you think about Laura H's example from her field site as a way to address this question--?
