Abstract

In this paper the author examines naivety as a teacher’s condition that to some extent shapes not only his or her vision about education but also shapes his or her teaching practice. The author unfolds in his argument how the naïve teacher, who is a credulous, trustful and uncritical man or a woman, is not able to fathom the intentions, consequences, inconsistencies and contradictions posed by education and fail to reveal the intricate socio-political-economical-cultural tangle that underlies his o her teaching practice, school and curriculum since those actions happen in hidden and disguised ways. The analysis is carried out under the critical pedagogy approach.
