Vortrag und Diskussion: Anarchistische Pädagogik

Café Noir, Monday, April 6 at 04:00 PM GMT+2

Der Vortrag bietet eine Einführung in den Themenkomplex Pädagogik, seine Akteure und ihr Verhältnis zu einander.

Anschließend wird eine Verbindung zur anarchistischen Gesellschaftsutopie aufgezeigt, um in der Frage nach Möglichkeiten anarchistischer Pädagogikkonzepte im Hier und Jetzt zu münden.

Um dem Vortrag folgen zu können sind weder Vorkenntnisse im Bereich der Pädagogik, noch in anarchistischer Theorie nötig.

Im Anschluss an die Einführung gibt es die Möglichkeit der offenen Diskussion über Erziehungskonzepte und den Einfluss der Gesellschaft auf diese, bzw. deren Einfluss auf die Gesellschaft.

Der Vortrag richtet sich an alle, die sich für die Themenkomplexe der Pädagogik und Erziehung interessieren und sich damit auseinandersetzen. Egal ob als Eltern, als ausgebildete oder angehende Pädagog*innen oder aus reinem Interesse.

'public opinion on A.I. has turned sharply negative; it now polls beneath ICE or Donald Trump (though above the Democratic Party or Iran). There is an A.I. backlash building, and understandably so: Who wants a technology that may take your job and eventually threaten human sovereignty? At the same time, A.I. is everywhere, and being woven into almost everything, and a staggering number of Americans use it daily. Backlash or no, I expect that trend to accelerate, not reverse'

'the University wants to prevent itself, along with the entire institution of higher education, from becoming obsolete. But as this pattern speeds up, Penn’s commitment to AI innovation seems less like an enhancement to our learning and more like a detriment to our critical thinking abilities...the University has essentially endorsed shortcuts and the outsourcing of academic thinking, threatening the very freedom of inquiry and open expression it claims to promote'

Solid quote from @loriemerson
