“…Freire (2005b), the Brazilian educator, coined the term 'conscientization' as ''the deepening attitude of awareness characteristic of all emergences'' (p.107). The word conscientization is conscientization in Portuguese and conscientization in Spanish (Liu, 2012). The meaning of conscientization is to 'make aware ' or 'awakening of consciousness' or 'Critical consciousness' (Lloyd, 1972, p. 5).…”

Conscientization in mathematics refers to the process by which students develop a critical awareness of the world view through education with their life experiences in mathematics learning. This qualitative study to analyze the use of Freire's conscientization in mathematics learning. The information was collected through secondary data as research articles, archival documents related with reliable sources. The conclusion showed that by using Freire's conscientization students develop a critical awareness of the world through education with their real-life experiences in mathematics. It advocated critical pedagogy in which teachers and students learn together through dialogue and it always welcomes critical analysis in the mathematics learning. The study has implication in mathematics learning, students share their experiences with other classmates in small groups as contextual teaching strategies in mathematics. It is recommended that a new relationship between teachers and students as well as society for an effective mathematics teaching strategy should be developed.

Signs of Dysconscious Racism and Xenophobiaism in Knowledge Production and the Formation of Academic Researchers: A National Study

The relation of social ethics to knowledge production is explored through a study about academic research enquiry on minoritised and racialised populations. Despite social change related to migration and ethnicity being a feature of contemporary Northern Ireland, local dynamics and actors seemed under-studied by its research-intensive ‘anchor universities’. To explore this, a critical discourse analysis of published research outputs (n = 200) and related authors’ narratives (n = 32) are interpreted within this paper through conceptualisations of consciousness. Insiders’ perspectives on the influences and structures of the research journey demonstrate the ways in which research cultures (mis)shape the politics of representation, authorship and ethicality. Societal and political disregard for the new publics, reproduced within universities’ hidden curriculum, has been negotiated and to some extent resisted in the research practices of those marginalised (such as women academics), those entering the system (migrant academics), and those local-born whose referential frames were developed external to local universities. Of concern is that the few research enablers were characterised by techno-rationality and doublespeak, impoverishing the depth of theorisation, complexity and intellectual debate necessary for challenging the existing dysconscious racism and xenophobiaism of the social imaginary.
