change.

2. How can transformative education be truly transformative?


- Transformative education includes cognitive understanding of how students learn,
emotional preparation to relate to many students whose varied needs are not always
evident, content knowledge from which to draw different ways to present a concept,
and, lastly, the ability to make teaching decisions quickly and act on them. Usually,
teachers have students ask questions and solve real-world problems. Questions which
requires students to analyze, synthesize, create, empathize, interpret, reference
background knowledge, defend alternative perspectives, and determine what they
know and don't know and organizing them.
