Take James Beane's "10 self and 10 world questions." (See this Trailfire for more information.) Mix in a healthy dose of Paulo Freire's "generative words" and "generative themes." (See a description of "generative themes that discusses images in a book, Brave New Schools. And find "generative" in the third chapter of Pedagogy of the Oppressed.) And I think we've got the makings of a really powerful curriculum! I'm planning to write more about this soon. Maybe I can make it sound coherent?
