SpracheSpielsOverReals Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Which programs are strong in critical pedagogy, particularly those that don't require the GRE? I am interested in the general intersection of politics, society, and education with a particular focus (potential research interests) in the politics of neutralisation within schools, the neutralisation of the political in a fundamentally political institution, teaching as a political act, critiques of standards/standardisation/standardised testing, and related themes and topics. Think Michael Apple, Paulo Freire, Michel Foucault, and so on. Would rather not consider programs that require the GRE as I am not only against the GRE / standardised testing for ideological reasons, there are other quality (non-education) programs I am looking at that don't require the GRE.
