Navigating Genericism in Education

This chapter explores the challenges educators face when generic teaching methods, particularly in history and science, clash with the specific needs of the subjects being taught. The discussion highlights the detrimental effects of implementing standardized pedagogies, such as Bloom's taxonomy, which may undermine the richness of content and critical thinking. By reflecting on the importance of tailored approaches in curriculum design, the speakers advocate for a deeper understanding of knowledge that respects discipline-specific nuances.
