Pedagogy of the Oppressed by Paulo Freire
Pedagogy of the Oppressed

brodie, March 14, 2008

This book should be required reading for any teacher, particularly any language teacher from the United States. It is already a classic, and hopefully will become foundational. Freire was a brilliant man.

Snow Crash (Bantam Spectra Book) by Neal Stephenson
Snow Crash (Bantam Spectra Book)

brodie, March 14, 2008

While the book involves a plot that is page turning, it also possesses an eery forecasting of the world to come. Written at a time when most Americans had never heard of the internet, Stephenson was already exploring concepts like avatars and viruses in an in depth way. A great read, and a thought provoking story.
