 *

*Background: *Popular education is a highly effective strategy for building
knowledge and skills,  developing leadership, and organizing for social
justice. Most closely associated with the adult literacy work of Brazilian
Paulo Freire, popular education is used around the world in many fields. It
is applicable to all areas of educational practice. Popular education is
based on the idea that, no matter our occupation and level of formal
education, we all know a great deal as a result of our life experience.
Therefore educators should start with what people already know and build on
it.

*In the Part I workshop, you will become familiar with:*

   - The underlying philosophy of popular education and key popular
   education methods, such as brainstorming, sociodramas (social skits),
   cooperative learning, role plays, and dinámicas (educational games)
   - How to move through the cycle of praxis (from action to reflection to
   action) in the course of a class
   - How participants can apply what they are learning to their day-to-day
   work
   - How this method can be used to teach any subject
   - The history of popular education and how it grew out of the lived
   experience of people working for social change.

*Please note: This is Part I of II workshops. Participants may stay for
Part II or may attend a Part II workshop in the future when available.
Participants may stay until 1:30pm to join us for lunch (provided by OPHA)*

 *In the Part II workshop you will:*

   - Have an opportunity to put what you learned in the Part I workshop
   into practice for more hands-on training. Bring work samples that you would
   like assistance with.

*Please note: This is Part II of II workshops and is for participants that
have previously participated in a **Popular Education workshop.
