Anyon does think that more research needs to be done to clearly show how economic status has a direct connection to the role in children’s education. What I think one of the key aspects of Anyon’s essay is the examples that were given for each school and how the social class affected the teaching. Examples were given by what the teacher said and how he/she taught, I was able to put myself in the classroom and see how I would have handled learning. Starting with the working-class schools, Anyon observed how teachers didn’t explain the work, how it would relate to other lessons, or the point of learning. I feel if you don’t understand the point of something, what is the point of learning?

Pedagogy is the art of education. Education includes more than an expert’s knowledge. It is no longer an impartation from expert into an empty vessel, the student.

She does this by creating discussion about topics and reminding her students that she isn’t the teacher but is a student of the class as well. This concept strongly benefits the students because they interpret the meaning of things and become open minded for different topics. In Rodriguez’s “Achievement of Desire” he shares his experience as a student throughout his whole life, starting with early schooling, college, and then, to where he is today, as a writer. During Rodriguez’s early schooling, Freire might say his education was the banking concept rather then the problem-posing. Rodriguez’s early schooling would be considered the banking concept of education
The power amid the two often leans toward one side, being monopolized and abused. My notion on oppression is that the mentality of one is manipulated by the unbalance of power in this subjugation. In certain cases oppression is necessary to keep peace; like the government and the people. If the government fails to oppress the public with the power of law, chaos would rain

Do we actually know about what it means to be educated or what it should mean to be educated? Jon Spayde narrows the definition in his essay Learning in the Key of Life. Jon Spayde states “The whole world’s a classroom.” Which I would have to agree with, because everywhere people go, people learn. Everything surrounds people with new knowledge whether they want to take it in or not.
