Just another though process of not being passive (not that you are) in the learning mode
We must reframe the pedagogical (teaching) relation between student and teacher.
The role of the teacher, supposedly, is to suppress the ignorance of the pupil. Yes, s/he is there to suppress the gap between ignorance and knowledge. However the teacher must always keep one step ahead of the ignorant student who is gradually and for some teachers alarmingly, losing his ignorance. For if he/she doe not their status or command or justification for their salary is gone, This was very evident at Cambridge, I thought they were a bunch of frauds, not all of course.
In the pedagogical scheme the ignorant person (student) is not only the one who does not know what he does not know; he is as well the one who ignores what he does not know
that he does not know
and ignores how to know it.
Meankwhile, the master//teacher is supposedly the one who knows what remains unknown to the ignorant, he also knows how to make it knowable and at what time and what place and when and according to what protocol.
Pedagogy is set up as a means of objective transmission, one rule, one theorem after another.
This knowledge .is supposed to be conveyed from the Teacher's mind to the mind of the pupil.
But this transmission is predicated (set) on a relation of inequality.
You see the Teacher knows something that the student will never know, short of becoming a Teacher her/himself (and living off the State as they do),
and that is, something that is more important than the knowledge conveyed between the two parties.
You see the teacher knows the exact distance between ignorance and knowledge the pedagogical distance between a determined ignorance and a determined knowledge
There is then the endless verification of its starting point
Inequality, which produces stultification (stasis not advancing) not emancipation
