Education Brings About Conformity or Freedom
I thought there was a lot to the following quote - some thoughtful consideration may be required
Paulo Freire: Education either functions as an instrument which is used to facilitate integration of the younger generation into the logic of the present system and bring about conformity or it becomes the practice of freedom, the means by which men and women deal critically and creatively with reality and discover how to participate in the transformation of their world.

Unfortuantely, most educational institutions teach conformity, and more
unfortunately, the general work world wants that conformity. Have you been at a board meeting or company seminar where someone actually tried to be constructively critical and attempted to present some creative
solutions?
