Who is Gabriel Bode from Pedagogy of the Oppressed and what is their importance?

Gabriel Bods is a civil servant working for the Chilean Instituto de Desarrollo Agropecuario. He observed that students are interested in discussion only when it relates to their needs. When interested, the students still digressed from the discussion and did not relate their needs to the causes of those needs. Bode began using two situations. The first one reflects a main theme. After discussing the first image, Bode leaves the image visible while bringing up secondary, related images that present additional related themes. The comparison of the two images helps students make connections.
