Mar Ivanios: A Pedagogue of the Disenfranchised
Samuel, Francis A.
Online Submission, Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the American Educational Research Association (Denver, CO, Apr 30-May 4, 2010)
Archbishop Mar Ivanios (1882-1953) was a visionary and his educational vision has relevance for today. He emancipated the socially marginalized and disenfranchised people of his time through his educational vision and practice. This article is the story of a small community of Christians and their leader who made a difference in their society. Hence, this paper examines, at first, the educational vision of Mar Ivanios in the context of Malankara Catholic Church in Kerala, India; second, it situates his vision in the context of the social ecology of the community in which Ivanios' educational vision took flesh; third, it looks at the education of women in his community and the disenfranchised segment of the society; finally, it delineates the realization of his vision and ends with some concluding remarks. [This article was published by "Public School Monitor" (Associates for Research on Private Education) v31 n2 Spr 2010 under the title, "Educating the Disenfranchised of India: The Story of Mar Ivanios and His Community."]
