Transformative-Emancipatory Pedagogy (TEP) to Reimagine Education

This book bridges an important gap in the field of higher education, by showing how and under what conditions critical and transformative pedagogy can be used to teach controversial issues and human rights in highly diverse classrooms. In the context of higher education, as a result of internationalization and the inclusion of under-represented groups, today’s universities and colleges have become increasingly diverse. This book will offer philosophical and theoretical insights as well as empirical evidence about how to develop and test concrete pedagogical interventions to teach about controversial topics in the field of human rights, while enhancing the inclusion of diverse groups of students. This is an open access book. Teresa M. Cappiali is an academic, international consultant, and the founder and CEO of NOIWE-No Innovation without Education, a start-up based in Sweden.
