I came across this quote while reading Freire's work. It seems to be symbolic of the need to change social work curriculum. Including technological advances to improve societal conditions for our populations is the first step in the transformation of our world toward equality.
“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.”
