This paper considers education to be the process of naming. The teacher gives names to things in the world through lessons and evaluations. The lessons/evaluations are based on a representative theory of knowledge with its naming relationship between language and reality. The enforcement of this position by the teacher results in the negation of students as active knowers. Thus, the result of this form of lesson/evaluation is that the self becomes a passive object who memorizes and recites. An analysis of a classroom lesson and attendant evaluation reveals this objectivism to be a process accomplished via lessons and evaluations constituted in the mundane activities of the classroom
