PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION

• The philosophy of education examines the goals,


• forms, methods, and meaning of education. The term is
used to describe both fundamental philosophical analysis of
these themes and the description or analysis of particular
pedagogical approaches.
PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION

• Philosophical analysis (from Greek: Φιλοσοφική ανάλυση)


is the techniques typically used by philosophers in the analytic
tradition that involve "breaking down" (i.e. analyzing)
philosophical issues. Arguably the most prominent of these
techniques is the analysis of concepts (known as conceptual
analysis).
PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION

• Education sciences (traditionally often called pedagogy) and education theory seek to
describe, understand, and prescribe educational policy and practice.

• Pedagogy - the method and practice of teaching, especially as an academic subject or


theoretical concept.

• Education sciences include many topics, such as pedagogy, andragogy, curriculum,


learning, and education policy, organization and leadership. Educational thought is
informed by many disciplines, such as history, philosophy, sociology, and psychology.

TEACHER CENTERED PHILOSOPHY

• Essentialism
This philosophy contends that teachers teach learners to
acquire basic knowledge, skills and values. Teachers teach
“not to radically reshape society but rather to transmit the
traditional moral values and intellectual knowledge that
students need to become model citizens”
TEACHER CENTERED PHILOSOPHY

• Perennialism
We are all rational animals. Schools should, therefore, develop
the students’ rational and moral powers. According to
Aristotle, if we neglect the students’ reasoning skills, we
deprive them of the ability to use their higher faculties to
control their passions and appetites.
STUDENT CENTERED PHILOSOPHY

• PROGRESSIVISM
Progressivist teachers teach to develop learners into
becoming enlightened and intelligent citizens of a
democratic society. This group of teachers teaches
learners so they may live life fully now, not to prepare
them for adult life.
STUDENT CENTERED PHILOSOPHY

• HUMANISM
Humanism is an approach to life based on reason and our
common humanity, recognising that moral values are properly
founded on human nature and experience alone. It is better
described as an attitude or perspective on life and humanity
which in turn serves to influence actual philosophies and
systems of beliefs.
STUDENT CENTERED PHILOSOPHY

• CONSTRUCTIVISM
Constructivists sees to develop intrinsically motivated
and independent learners adequately equipped with
learning skills for them to be able to construct
knowledge and make meaning of them.
SOCIETY CENTERED PHILOSOPHY

• RECONSTRUCTIONISM
Is an educational philosophy that views schools as tools
to solve social problems. Reconstructionists not only
aim to educate a generation of problem solvers, but
also try to identify and correct many noteworthy social
problems that face our nation.
SOCIETY CENTERED PHILOSOPHY

• BEHAVIORISM
Behaviorist schools are concerned with the
modification and shaping of students’ behavior by
providing a favorable environment, since they believe
that they are a product of their environment. They are
after students who exhibit desirable behavior in society.
YOU, THE TEACHER,
AS A PERSON IN SOCIETY

• “Teachers… are the most responsible and important


member of society because their professional efforts
affect the fate of the earth.”
• - Helen Caldicott
