BWS 304 - African-centered Pedagogy

3 hours
Pedagogy- the science of teaching- has an ancient and unique format in African experience. Researchers have found evidence of African pedagogy in the ancient rock paintings of Zimbabwe (Mshaya Mvura Cave). This course will examine the whole- system- based pedagogy that emerged from, and is still being implemented in many locations on the continent of Africa. We will search for its retentions in the Diaspora, The lives and teachings of great African teachers (Ptahhotep, Imhotep, Cheikh Anta Diop, Boukman, Mortimer Planno, Malcom X) will be fully explored.

This course will satisfy the multicultural core requirement.
