respond to a felt

need.

- Education must be in response to a need of humanity.

social and

political issues of the time.

Bloom was often called vengeful, reactionary and

antidemocratic, talking against the

American students and the American universities.

that his writings were only focused on a study of classics and

there was no
philosophy in it.

Great Books2

 The Great Books course of Bloom was often criticized due

to its restricted and

narrow conception of classics.

 Chomsky criticized Blooms emphasis on a Great Books

curriculum, maintaining

that its effect would be:

‘Students will end up knowing and understanding virtually

nothing’

Social Issues:

Critics point out that Bloom discussed all major social and

political issues in the

lives of students of his time but was silent on gay rights despite

the rapid spread

of the concept at that time.

Characteristics of curriculum According to John Dewey?

Dewey believed that curriculum should be ultimately producing

students who would be

able to deal effectively with the modern world.

Child based:

- Curriculum should include the child’s own preconceptions and

should

incorporate how the child views his own world.

- Curriculum should build an orderly sense of the world where

the child lives.

Activities of Life in Classroom:

this, he made

connections between subjects and the child’s life.

prominent drawback of homeschooling is isolation and no social

interaction. Although

in some cases homeschooling is fruitful too. Where there are the

following issues:

- Transportation & convenience

- Inaccessibility of schools
- Behavior problems of children

- Concerns over safety

What is home Schooling?

Homeschooling is the oldest and most ancient educational

philosophy. In times before

formal schooling started, some children were sent away to study

with great philosophers

and thinkers, however, most children learned life skills from

their parents, while staying

at home.

Pragmatism is a contemporary educational theory. Pragmatists

believe that reality is

actually what is experienced is subjective and is also changing.

Pragmatics maintains
that practical consequences are the criteria of knowledge,

meaning and value.

Criticism on classical education?

Joy of Learning

- Many critics believe classical education to be too formal.

- They believe it makes learning a chore rather than a joyous

activity.

Knowledge Transmission4

- Classical education is often seen as transference of the

accumulated knowledge of

the society to its youth.

- Critics believe that education should be more than just the

transmission of

knowledge.

- They question whether classical education imparts wisdom.

Individuality
- Classical education is criticized because it fails to satisfy the

individual needs,

interests and capabilities of students.

Education for Virtue

- Most classical educationalists or philosophers focused on

education as a way to

make the student virtuous.

- Critics point out that education should be for the mental

development of a person

and that the soul or its virtue should have nothing to do with

education.

Liberal education?

- Trains individuals in liberal arts that are arts of learning.

- It is preparatory.

- Liberally trained students acquire the skill to go on learning

after they have

graduated, but unless they continue their education, they would

never become

generally educated humans.

Teacher's role Essentialism?

- For essentialists, the teacher is an authority in a discipline and

passes the

discipline’s knowledge to the student, who also learns the

cognitive skills needed

to master the knowledge taught.

- The teacher is the focus of the classroom activity. 5

- The teacher decides what students ought to learn and is

responsible for

presenting the subject matter in a logical sequence and has the

right to discipline

students to create a conducive learning environment.

Sensorial Education and its aims?

Montessori made it clear to the educators that the senses were

the most neglected in the

learning process

- Montessori used sensory materials to provide sensorial

education to the children.

- Each child was introduced to each piece of material

individually.

- The aim was self-instruction regarding each material.

- The reward was waiting for the spontaneous reaction of

children and observing it.

Aims of Sensorial Education

Criticism on teaching and research, Jaspers?

- Critics disapproved of Jaspers’ belief that teaching & research

are inseparable

and a good teacher must be a good researcher as well.

- Those who separate teaching and research tend to view all

teaching as the
transmission of basic information about a subject matter; thus,

teaching becomes

equated here wholly with scholastic instruction.

Teacher role according to Jean Piaget?

Facilitation:

- The teachers’ main role is the facilitation of learning by

providing various

experiences for the students.

Discovery Learning:

- "Discovery Learning" allows opportunities for students to

explore and

experiment, while encouraging new understandings.

Opportunities:6

- Opportunities that allow learners of different cognitive levels

to work together
often help encourage less mature students to advance to a higher

understanding

of the material.

Hands on Experience:

- Teachers can also assess students with the use of hands on

experiences to help

students learn.

Learning:

- Children are innately curious and motivated to learn, whether

or not they receive

external rewards and encouragement.

- Teachers must manipulate this.

Assimilation & Accommodation:

- These are the stages where learning takes place.

- When a child is introduced to a new phenomenon, she tries to

understand it by
assimilating it, or associating it with things that she already

knows.

- This implies that children should be introduced to new

experiences that are

related to experiences they have already had but that also

challenge their thinking

in some way.

orderly civic participation centred on obeying the law and voting

in national, state, and

local elections. Public education’s role is primarily one of

(economic productivity) and

non-material civic benefits (individual rights)

Types of Obedience:

There are two types of obedience according to Emmanuel Kant:

Absolute Obedience:

(images, props, and

words) to represent objects in the real world.

- Learns to use language and to represent objects by images and

words.

- Thinking is still egocentric.

- The child has difficulty taking the viewpoint of others.

the red blocks

regardless of shape or all the square blocks regardless of colour.

Explain logic in classical education?

6th – 8th Grades

- Also known as the dialectic stage.8

- This stage typically lasts from 6th to 8th grades.

- By fifth grade, a child’s mind begins to think more analytically.

- Middle-school students are less interested in finding out facts

than in asking

‘Why?’

- Brings the grammar of disciplines into ordered relationships.

- During this time, children’s capacity for abstract thought

expands rapidly.

- Children become attracted to argumentation and abstract ideas.

- They are taught how to analyze, reason, question, evaluate and

critique.

- Logic, the art of arguing correctly, is taught as a core subject.

- The introduction of formal logic shifts the focus from mere

facts to understanding

relationships.
- Students learn to reason as they identify critical assumptions,

logical fallacies and

inconsistencies.

effect, to the

relationships between different fields of knowledge relate, to the

way facts fit

together into a logical framework.

the child.9
- Montessori emphasized on a harmonious relationship between

the family, child

through the symbols of that community.

- This can be done through consideration of the previous history

of the community

- Secondly, schools must enable students to learn & practice

everything which is

necessary for work and for a profession.

- This is a matter of deliberate planning.

primary school that

lays the moral, intellectual & political foundation for the entire

population.

Holt defines education as something that some people do to

others for their own good, molding

and shaping them, and trying to make them learn what they

think they ought to know.

Write three characteristics of skilled leaner?

- Disciplinary Expert

- An individual of any age who has mastered the concepts and

skills of a discipline

or domain and can apply such knowledge appropriately in new

situations.

- Included in the ranks of the disciplinary experts are those

students who are able

to use the knowledge of their physics class or their history class

to illuminate new

phenomena.

- Their knowledge is not limited to the usual text-and- test

setting, and they are

eligible to enter the ranks of those who “really” understand.

Write a note on the idea of university by Karl Jasper?

Most of Jaspers educational philosophy focused on University

education rather than

school.11

Function:

- The university is meant to function as an intellectual

conscience of an era.

- It is a meeting place of different disciplines and world outlooks.

Research:

- Research is a major function of Jasper’s university.

- Discovery & research is an indivisible whole.

- Scholarship depends on a relation to the whole.

Science & Scholarship:

- Science & scholarship are meaningful only when they are part

of a comprehensive

intellectual life that is the very life blood of university.

Objectives of University:

- Research

- Education
- Instruction

Communication:

- To reach the stated objectives, scholars must communicate

with each other and

with students, who in turn must communicate with each other

Briefly explain the experiment of selecting rational method

in

your own words?

- Montessori wanted to find a rational method of teaching

writing.

- She found a more rational method based on clear language.

- Observed that spoken language began at birth as a natural

function.

- Observed that every infant created his mother tongue by

himself.
- Emphasized that language development was not taught but was

natural and

spontaneous.

- Infant’s thought was fixed by one word – a noun

- Child had a greater understanding of language than his power

to use language.

Give five reason why do parents prefer home schooling for

their children.

Lack of Confidence in the Educational System

- Many parents believe they can provide better education then

any public or

private school.12

- Parents did not think that the academic standards of the schools

were

satisfactory.

Religious or Spiritual Beliefs

- Parents feel that religion has fallen to a distant second place in

a school

education.

- Some religions dictate rules or beliefs that are best adhered to

or met in a

homeschool setting.

Special Needs

- A child with special needs may thrive in a homeschool

environment.

- These special needs may be specific to learning style,

development level, or

overall physical health.

- These children may require more or specialized attention,

instruction, and

interaction from a teacher within a conventional classroom.

Parenting Philosophy
- Parents believe that they can better foster desirable character

traits and morals in

their children than might be encouraged in a conventional school.

- Through homeschooling, parents hope to instill their personal

morals and values

in their children.

Unattainable Private Schooling

Many parents who prefer private schooling over public

schooling chose to

homeschool in case of inability to send their children to private

schools due to

various reasons.

Other Reasons

- Transportation & convenience

- Inaccessibility of schools

- Behavior problems of children

- Concerns over safety

Write any five aims of classical education.

- The ancient and medieval scholars started their educational

program by defining

the end goal — the study of philosophy and theology.

- They understood that students must work through the Trivium

and Quadrivium

as preparation for these higher orders of thought.13

- Moving from the Trivium to the Quadrivium, Classical

educationalists hope to

sharpen the abilities of maturing wise students who are

thoroughly preparing for

their university studies.

- Classical education is focused on presenting information and

skills in a logical
sequence at an age-appropriate time, thoroughly and

continuously preparing

students to progress to higher levels of thought.

- The unity of the seven liberal arts and their proper study aims

at producing an

individual with a harmonious and well-ordered soul who would

reason well,

judge rightly, and live virtuously.

- Classical education hopes to contribute to the formation of a

generation of

leaders who are life-long learners, educated and articulate

citizens who are

capable of understanding complex issues, discerning noble

choices, and living

virtuously in service to others.

Difference between imagination, fantasy, and creativity.

- All fantasy is imagination but all imagination is not always

fantasy. Fantasy is

about the unreal. Imagination can be both. Imagination has led

to all the great

(and not so great) innovations of our time. ‘Imagination is a tool

to discover

truth’

- Creativity means, there is nothing by the way of experience yet

something comes

up.

Write point on concrete operational development by Piaget's.

Concrete Operational Stage:

- 7 - 11 years

- In this stage children evolve from prelogical, egocentric

thinking to a more rule

regulated type of thinking.

Logic:

- Child can think logically about objects and events.

- Some of the rules of logic include reversibility, identity, and

compensation.

Understanding of Numbers:

- Child achieves understanding of number (age 6), mass (age 7),

and weight (age

9).

Object Classification:14

- Classifies objects according to several features and can order

them in series along

a single dimension such as size.

- One activity that a child at this age would enjoy is a cooking

activity with their

mom or dad.

Measurements:
- Baking involves measurements, which would be useful to the

concept of

conservation.

- Measuring cups come in all different shapes so it would be fun

to measure the

exact same measurement using different types of measuring

utensils.

Ingredients:

- Also the ingredients could be classified into different

categories such as the dry

ingredients and the wet ingredients and so on.

Nature of knowledge by Jaspers.

Reliable Knowledge:

- Jaspers was particularly conscious of the theoretical difficulties

of securing

reliable knowledge.
Objectivity:

- Even if a particular kind of knowledge is universally valid, it is

not absolutely

objective.

- Knowledge is the product of a particular method chosen by the

investigator.

Universal Validity:

- Since knowledge cannot be completely objective, it cannot be

universally valid;

hence Jaspers definition of universal validity relies upon

universal consensus.

Scientific & Philosophical Knowledge:

- Jaspers analyzed the relationship between science and

philosophy, as he believed

both to be an integral part of education.

Methodical Knowledge:
- Scientific knowledge is methodical knowledge, i.e. we know

by what means it was

arrived at and in what sense and within what limits it holds good.

Certain Knowledge:15

- Scientific knowledge is absolutely certain, i.e. it stands the test

of any reasoning;

it must be distinguished from the convictions by which man may

live and be

prepared to risk his life.

General Validity:

- Scientific knowledge has general validity, i.e. it is recognized

without limitation

by everyone who understands it; it stands in contrast to any

other form of

knowledge in which man may place unlimited faith.

Intelligence theory by Howard Gardner.

Theory of Multiple Intelligences

- Humans have several different ways of processing information,

and these ways

are relatively independent of one another.

- The theory of multiple intelligences allows for the idea that

there is more than

one way to define a person’s intellect.

- Gardner opposes the idea of labeling learners to a specific

intelligence.

- He argues that each individual possesses a unique blend of all

the intelligences.

What do you know about Rousseau Emile? and emile focus?

5 marks

Criticism on Maria Montessori prepared environment.

- A prepared environment is artificial.

- One cannot decide which prepared environment is best.

How school appearance show equality?

- In recent years, attention has been focused on the need for

freedom and equality

in schools.

- Montessori Method gave children equal importance.

- They were all ‘heard’

- Children can be freed and guided towards making sound

decisions at the same

time.

Characteristics of Kant character development.

- Humans are the only beings in need of an education.

- Concern for child development & learning through activities.

- “Children ought to be educated, not for the present, but for a

possibly improved

condition of man in the future; that is, in a manner which is

adopted to the idea

of humanity and the whole destiny of man.” Kant – Thoughts on

Education16

Write three points of Quadirvium.

- The Quadrivium followed the preparatory work of the Trivium.

- The Quadrivium is expected to be the preparatory work for the

pursuit of

philosophy.

- The Quadrivium in its modern day application may be

considered the study of

numbers and its relationship to physical space or time.

Learning process by progressivist.

- Learning is rooted in the questions of learners that arise

through experiencing

the world.

- Learning is active, not passive.

- The learner is a problem solver and thinker who makes

meaning through his or

her individual experience in the physical and cultural context.

Jaspers view about education

‘Helping the individual to come into his own in a spirit of

freedom and not like trained

animal’. ‘Education is accomplished when contents are freely

acquired; but it fails when

it is authoritarian’

Allan Bloom Areas of Interest.

- Greek philosophy

- History of philosophy

- Political philosophy

- Politics

What is leaning style? who is a physical/ Kinesthetic learner

and
interpersonal learner?

Learning Style

A learning style is a method of perceiving and processing

information.

Physical Learner

- The physical or kinesthetic learner can be identified through

his or her

restlessness.

- These learners think best while on the move.

Intrapersonal

- Intrapersonal learners are usually shy and introverted.

- They think better when allowed to focus completely and

independently. 17

- Intrapersonal learner excels when learning new information via

self-paced

activities or independent projects.

- They prefer to do things alone rather than as part of a large

group.

What are democratic schools?

- Democratic schools are generally based upon a notion of

genuine participatory

democracy, practiced everywhere throughout society, with all

ages of people.

- According to the proponents of democratic education, young

people ought to

have the power (and responsibility) in the schools where they

spend so much of

their lives.

Need for Democratic Education?

- Today, the developed world at large believes in democracy as

the preferred form

of government.
- It makes sense for the preference of a democratic education

which would produce

men and women who are trained from a young age to be

responsible and

accountable citizens of a democracy.

Sports Resources for Doers.

- Holt believed that sports resources were also essential for a

person’s education,

as we are, by nature, active, playful, and game loving creatures.

- Among outdoor sports resources, Holt has mentioned running,

bicycling, skating

etc.

- He believed that such activities are an important part of ones

learning process as

they are also an important part of one’s daily routine, e.g. getting

from one place

to another through walking or bicycling.

- He also mentions many indoor sport resources such as

gymnastics, tumbling and

squash.

- Board games such as chess also help develop a person’s mental

capacities, thus

becoming another source of learning.

Define Progressivism in your own words.

Progressivists believe that education should focus on the whole

child, rather than on the

content or the teacher. This educational philosophy stresses that

students should test

ideas by active experimentation. Learning is rooted in the

questions of learners that

arise through experiencing the world.

The Formal Approach

School-at-Home18

This school-at-home, or formal approach means that the

education process is the

same as at school, except that it is taking place at home.

Parent-Teacher

The parent or parents who are responsible for the education of

the child act as a

traditional classroom teacher during the study hours.

School Rooms at Home

Homeschooling parents employing the formal approach often

specify a room at

home to act as a traditional classroom.

School Schedules

Homeschooling parents using this approach also prescribe

schedules for their

children to adhere by.

Curriculum

Homeschooling parents using this approach strictly follow a

school like

curriculum in the process of educating their child.

Summer School

Often, these parents incorporate summer school (at home) in

their children’s

schedules as well.

Extracurricular Activities

Like at a traditional school, extra-curricular activities are also an

important part

of the formal approach to homeschooling.

Why parents’ involvement is important according to Maria

Montessori?

- Parents play a very important role in a child’s education.

- Montessori believed in the union of the family and the school

in the matter of

educational aims.

- Mothers were allowed to visit the classroom at any time to

observe.

- Idea of collective ownership of school by parents & teachers

was promoted.

- Teachers must be available to parents for regular discussions of

their child’s

development.

- Child psychology in education was discussed with parents.

Deep Democracy

- Deep Democracy advocates full participation in all aspects of

social and civic life-

--not only those conventionally identified as ‘political’.19

- Beyond the teaching of core democratic values and dominant

institutional

arrangements, public education is to provide direct experience

with practices of

collective civic engagement.

- Young citizens are to enact complex processes of teaching /

learning that lead to

deliberative competence, social imagination, and inclusive

participation in social

transformation.

- Deep Democracy and its educational imperatives have yet to

be widely

established and sustained.

- Confronted with fundamentally non-democratic social

structures, civic education

for Deep Democracy faces formidable resistance.

- Civic educators must address tensions between the

instructional requirements of

individual vs. social learning along with recognition of private

achievement vs.

collaborative accomplishment.

Platonic Idealism.

- The search for absolute (universal) truth in all fields of life.

- Truth is perfect and eternal.

- Dialectic (Means a two sided conversation. In dialectic, two

persons will talk from

their perspectives and when they bring up their knowledge, they

create a new

knowledge by the end of the time.)

- Humans have lost the knowledge that souls possess.

- It is the responsibility of humans to search for that knowledge

and truth in order

to lead a good and virtuous life.

Freeform learning

Freeform learning or unschooling is an approach used by parents

who are severe critics

of the traditional schooling.

How learning takes place according to John Holt?

‘Doing’ as Effective Education

- By doing, Holt includes actions such as talking, listening,

writing, reading,

thinking and even dreaming in addition to.

- Holt describes doing as a way of making education more

effective, as education’s

ineffectiveness was a dilemma of his time, as it still is today.

Learning Experiences

- Holt criticizes the commonly held belief about there being two

kinds of learning
experiences, i.e. experiences from which we learn, and

experiences from which

we don’t learn anything.

- Holt believes that there is no experience from which we don’t

learn. 20

- We learn something from everything we do, and everything

that happens to us or

is done to us.

Interest in Learning

- Holt believed that we are unlikely to learn anything good from

experiences which

do not seem to us closely connected with what is interesting and

important in the

rest of our lives.

Curiosity
- Holt also maintained that curiosity is never idle, it grows out of

real concerns and

real needs.

Learning Environment

- Holt suggested an environment where children are not taught,

rather they are

facilitated.

- There should be no rules, no mandatory attendance, and no

structure – just

uninhabited learning.

John Dewey's thoughts?

What is Freedom according to Maria Montessori?

- Montessori suggested freeing the child’s spirit (mind).

- For this, children required a stress free environment.

- Montessori wanted to eliminate slavery in pedagogy.

- She believed they needed both physical & mental freedom to

develop normally.

5 points on homeschooling laws?

Universal Free Public Education

- With the advent of free public education, came compulsory

attendance statutes

and truancy regulations.

Limiting State Control Over Education

- The 1920’s stood witness to the leading major court cases

limiting the power of

government to control education.

Parent Qualification

- Some countries require no qualification other than being the

child’s parent or

legal guardian, others require them to have a specific level of

formal education, or
to work with certified teachers.21

Attendance

- Attendance in some form or the other is required in all

countries that enforce

education.

Evidence Presentation

- Homeschooling parents need to present this proof to the local

authorities in

order to be allowed to continue educating their children at home.

Private School Status

- Some states or countries consider homeschools as private

schools, thus

homeschools fall under the private school regulations.

Progressivist theory?

Perennalist curriculum?
- The perennialist curriculum is universal and is based on the

view that all human

beings possess the same essential nature, and must therefore be

educated in the

same way.

- Perennialists emphasize that students should not be taught

information that may

soon be outdated or found to be incorrect.

- Perennialists value the past and teach universally agreed upon

knowledge and

cherished values of the society.

Evolution of culture.

- It is this plastic period of necessary dependence that has

furnished the

opportunities for inducting each generation into its heritage of

culture.
- The cultures of primitive people are relatively simple and can

be transmitted by

imitation or by coming-of-age ceremonies.

- Primitive peoples pamper and indulge their offspring.

- They do not sense a responsibility to provide for their own

future, much less for

the future of their children.

- More highly organized systems of education, however, become

necessary with the

development of more complicated cultures.

Trivium of education of learning

Developmental Stages

 Grammar

 Logic22

 Rhetoric

The trivium covers elementary through high school ages.

Learning

Trivium-based education organizes learning around the maturing

capacity of a

child’s mind by using teaching methods and materials specific to

each stage of

development.

Grammar of trivium in your own words

How Plato originated dialectic method?

- The dialectic method is also called the Socratic method.

- The method originates from Socrates’ teaching style.

- His ideas were only transferred orally, Plato was the one who

wrote them down

and refined the method.

- All thinking begins with a thesis or a point of view.

Perennialist teacher or Role of Perennialist Teacher

- Perennialist classrooms are teacher centered in order to

develop the students

intellectual & moral qualities through dissemination of Western

traditions.

- The teachers are not concerned about the students' interests or

experiences.

- They use tried and tested teaching methods and techniques that

are believed to

be most beneficial in disciplining students' mind.

- Teacher is considered a master of taught subjects, and guides

the discussion or

the learning process.

Free Schools

- Free schools that offer courses on a number of different topics

that learners may

take on their own discretion.

- Beacon Hill Free School, Boston.

- Free schools are a lot like traditional centers of adult education,

except that they

have the least bit of administrative structure and more diversity.

- Free schools are not built around a political ideology.

- It gives them a broader base in the community.

- Free schools charge no money, therefore they do not need to

guarantee anything

to students.

- This arrangement makes them the perfect centers of

unschooling.

- An important thing to consider is that free schools are not at all

costly.

- Students don’t pay, and teachers aren't paid.23

How education achieve character training

- Character training in Aristotle’s scheme of education takes

precedence over all

other immediate objectives of the school.

3 roles of teacher according to Jasper

Guiding Hand:

- Children must be educated according to their own inclinations

& abilities under

the guiding hand of the educator.

Lifelong Education:

- Jaspers was in no doubt about the fact that the value of school

is directly bound

with the quality of its teachers who can only perform their task

of educating

young people through life-long self-education & training.

Need for Substance:

- Good teachers must recognize the need for substance in their

teaching, which

only research can provide.

Intuitive, traditional and expert learner?

The Intuitive Learner

- The Intuitive learner reflects neurobiological and

developmental constraints

which are purely genetic in nature.

- All human beings are subjected to these constraints.

Traditional Learner

- These learners are often subjected to historical and institutional

constraints that

are embedded in schools.

- Schools have evolved over the centuries to serve certain

societal purposes in

certain ways.
- These goals are often reflected in the school policies and pose

as a constraint to

deep understanding and learning.

Expert Learner

- Expert learner faces certain disciplinary and epistemological

constraints that

comes to operate within any field of expertise over the years.

Who was Maria Montessori and what was her major focus

on?

Maria Montessori was a very famous and influential educational

philosopher.

- Maria Montessori was born in 1870 and died in 1952.

- She was a clinical paediatrician. (Dr of infants)

- She was an educator.

- Maria Montessori wanted to become an engineer before she

switched her
allegiance to medicine.

- She based her work on observation rather than theories.

- She never claimed to have invented or created a new procedure.

- She always cited other sources or philosophers.

- Her interests were in mental health.

- She worked with children with mental deficiencies and applied

that knowledge to

neurotypical children.

- She observed young ‘idiot children’ in asylums.

- She believed that mental deficiency was at root a pedagogical

problem.

Criticism on democratic education

Democratic education has certain vocational aims which are a

continuation of its

educational aims.

Dependence of Children
Children at a young age are incapable of doing many things,

thus they require

authoritative figures to guide and direct them.

Lack of Authority

Society as a whole needs to reestablish the value of authority,

while nevertheless

empowering and educating students according to their way.

Extreme Philosophy

Critics believe that democratic education is an extreme

philosophy where

students have all the rights and teachers have none.

Learning

Children left to their own devices will never voluntarily learn

anything

challenging or worthwhile.

Self-directed?
Critics raise the important question of whether democratic

education is really

self-directed or not.

Tyranny of Majority

Democratic education would mean that every student has to

suffer through core

curriculum that would stifle the individualism of students.

Essentialism

- Essentialism is a content centered educational approach.

Empiricist and rationalist school of thought focus on?

- Rationalist: Thinks analytically

- Empiricist: Thinks synthetically

3 characteristics of idealism philosophy.

- Ideas are the only true reality.

- Focus on conscious reasoning in mind.

- Mind vs. the material world (When you travel from the world

which is material

towards the world which is spiritual, and when you reach the

spiritual world, you

in fact find the ultimate truth.)

Socialization according to homeschoolers.

- The word socialization holds a different meaning for different

people.

- By socialization, some mean social activity, others mean social

influence, and yet

others mean social exposure.

- Socialization is often defined by homeschoolers as the process

whereby people

acquire the rules of behaviors and systems of beliefs and

attitudes that equip a

person to function effectively as a member of a particular

society.

Maria Montessori Prepared environment.

- Each prepared environment should only have one set type of

material

- One piece of each material enables the child to reduce his mind

to order

- Orderliness, hygiene & attractiveness of the furnishings

- Environment must have a calming effect on children

- Use of natural wood materials

- There should be no objects to distract children’s attention

- Bare floors

- Few tables & chairs of different sizes to accommodate all

children

- Soft pleasing colors

Maria Montessori views about developing reading

Beginning Reading

- Children practiced reading words mechanically before reading

‘logical’ text.

- Between 4 and 7 years, children were word lovers and

understood words.26

Oral Reading

- Montessori stressed that the child who begins to read by

interpreting thought

should read mentally.

Jasper Criticism of Concept of University

- Critics have objected to Jaspers conception of a university to

be too aristocratic.

- Jaspers only allows the very best to become a part of the

university.

- University becomes a domain of special privilege which is

very antidemocratic.
Ignorance Comes from Evil

- Ignorance: Socrates believed that the root of moral evil is

ignorance. Through

ignorance, humans can misplace or loose knowledge.

- Since humans have the ability to ‘know’ or to rediscover the

knowledge, it is up to

them to either remain ignorant or to search for the truth.

- Human mind has indefinite potential. It is only natural that

man would want to

know more because once an individual gets onto the path of

discovery, there is no

end.

Teaching implications derived from Jean Piaget Philosophy

1. A focus on the process of children's thinking, not just its

products.
2. Recognition of the crucial role of children's self-initiated,

active involvement in

learning activities.

3. A de-emphasis on practices aimed at making children adult

like in their thinking.

4. Acceptance of individual differences in developmental

progress.

Curriculum that Plato suggested has three aspects

Depth:

- Studies must not be limited to subjects that are new or meet

occupational needs.

- Most contemporary problems have solutions in the great

literature of the past.

- Philosophers have debated issues such as individual, society &

their relationship

since the beginning of thought.

- Studying such philosophers in-depth constitutes a quality

education.

Holistic Learning:

- Specialized learning is useless.

- Students must see the whole instead of the partial.

- ‘Important’ subjects such as the natural sciences are of

maximum value only

when they help us see the whole picture.

- Dialectic aims at achieving holistic learning.

- Holistic learning requires a critical attitude, background in

mathematics, and

extended study.

Self-Directed:

- A student should learn with interest and through self-

motivation.
- An educational direction given by another does not have the

same affects as self

directed studies.

General Education

- A lifelong education which continues after the end of formal

schooling.

- It is around the age of 60 that a person becomes generally

educated, and is

wise & mature.

Principles of Progressivism

1. The process of education finds its genesis and purpose in the

child.

2. Pupils are active rather than passive.

3. The teacher’s role is that of an advisor, a guide, a fellow

traveler, rather than an

authoritarian and classroom director.

4. The school is a microcosm of the larger society. Learning

should be integrated.

5. Classroom activity should focus on solving problems, rather

than on artificial

methods of teaching subject.
