A Conceptualization of True Liberator Pedagogy: Foundations of a Transformative Educational Approach

The integration of True Liberator Pedagogy (TLP) to blending of critical pedagogy, Design Thinking (DT), and transformative learning theories offer a strategy to tackle the changing demands of contemporary education. This educational approach is influenced by Freire, Vygotsky, Dewey, and other modern educational theorists, advocating for a move away from traditional teaching methods towards 'action-oriented learning' as a different approach to traditional didactic methods. TLP focuses on fostering critical awareness, compassion, and interactive learning to transform education beyond academic pursuits, aiming for societal empowerment and creativity. This approach boosts academic achievement and promotes the growth of socially conscious, compassionate, and creative individuals. TLP's approach to curriculum design promotes active engagement, practical implementation, and deep contemplation, in accordance with the needs of a world that is increasingly integrated and interconnected. The practical application of TLP is discussed, suggesting that it has the potential to revolutionize education and promote a fairer society.
