Abstract

The pleasure of teaching is, in itself, an act of resistance, given the multiple criticisms that are made of teachers and professors, the rampant cynicism that operates in society, and the boredom reflected by our students regarding the process of teaching. If we do not recognize this historic and cultural reality it is not possible to do honest and fruitful work.

Once you feel in charge of your classroom, many things can go wrong, even if you have prepared everything. You need the rest of the classroom—the audience as collaborator—to make sense out of education as a process of resistance and struggle.
