It could be described as a form of artificial or ‘heightened’ documentary. Although the genre has existed in some form or other since the early years of television, the current explosion of popularity dates from around 2000. Critics say that the term ‘reality television’ is somewhat of a misnomer and that such shows frequently portray a modified and highly influenced form ofreality. with participants put in exotic locations or abnormal situations, sometimes coached to act in certain ways by off-screen handlers. and with events on screen manipulated through editing and other post-production techniques. Part of reality television's appealis dueto its ability to place ordinary people in extraordinary situations. Some commentators have said that the name ‘reality television’ is an inaccurate description for several styles of program included in the genre. In competition—based programs the producers design the format of the show and control the day-to-day activities and the environment. creating a completely fabricated world in which the competition plays out. Producers specifically select the participants. and use carefully designed scenarios, challenges, events, and settings to encourage particular behaviours and conflicts. Mark Bumett. creator of “Survivor and other reality shows. has agreed with this assessment. and avoids the word ‘reality to describe his shows:he hassaid, “I tell good stories. It really is not reality TV. It really is unscripted drama’.

I passed all the other courses I took at my university, but I could never pass Botany. This was because all Botany students had to spend several hours in a week in a laboratory looking through a microscope at plant cells. and I could never see through a microscope. I never once saw a cell through a microscope. This used to enrage my instructor. He would wander around the laboratory pleased with the progress all the students were making in drawing the involved and so I am told. interesting structure of flower cells, until he come to me. I would just be standing there. “I can't see anything’. I would say. He would begin patiently enough. explaming how anybody can see through a microscope. but he could always end up in a fury, claiming that I could too see through a microscope but just pretend that I couldn't. “It takes away from the beauty of flowers anyway. “I used to tell him”. We are not concemed with the beauty in this course’. he would say. “We are concerned solely with what I may call the mechanics”. “well”. Ud say. “I can’t see anything’. nothing at all, except nowand again a nebulous milky substance —a phenomenon of maladjustment. You were supposed to see a vivid. restless clockwork of sharplydefined plant cells. “I see what looks like a lot of milk”, I would tell him. This, he claimed. was the result of may not having adjusted the microscope properly. so he would readjust it for me. or rather, for himself. And I would look again and see milk.

Whatis education if it is not about empowering: empowering in order to gain more control over your life. It requires you to look at fundamentalissues. It requires you to look at other people so that you may have an understanding of your own identity. It is a cultural action within which you as participant learn to recognise the structural relation between personal and collective consciousness. The teacher takes you beyond binaries, and shows you the truth that in order to learn you have to define your needs. your goals. and your strategies. and necessarily understand that needs. goals and strategies differ both in nature and priority from person to person. and from group to group. The classroom becomes the site of experience. Identity and authenticity may be fashioned here. The leamer takes the first step in how to negotiateknowledge.
