2. EDUCATION HISTORY
It comprises the theories,
methods, administration systems
and situation of schools from
ancient times to the present
throughout the world.
The concept 'education' denotes
the methods by which a society
maintains its knowledge, culture
and values and affects the physical,
mental, emotional, moral and social
aspects of the person.

3. EDUCATION IN THE PRIMITIVE
COMMUNITY
Education goes hand in hand with the evolution of the
human being, since all societies, as primitive as they may
be, are supported by teaching.
Education assumes its origin in primitive communities
and because the human being goes from living a
nomadic lifestyle to establishing himself and being
sedentary; where he already benefits from his first tasks,
such as hunting and fishing, agriculture and the gathering
of his food and above all from his survival.

4. THE FIRST EDUCATION SYSTEMS
In Egypt, temple schools
taught religion, principles of
culture, principles of writing,
science, mathematics, and
architecture.
Education in ancient China
focused on philosophy, poetry,
and religion, according to the
teachings of Confucius, Lao-tse,
and other philosophers
The physical training methods that
predominated in Persia and were
linked by various Greek
philosophers, became the model of
the systems of education in ancient
Greece, which valued both
gymnastics and mathematics and
music.

5. BASIC WESTERN TRADITIONS
Roman education transmitted to the
western world the study of the Latin
language, classical literature, engineering,
law, administration, and government
organization.

6. THE MIDDLE AGES
Medieval education also
developed the way of learning
through work or self service
Education is a privilege of the upper
classes and most of the members of
the lower classes did not have access
to it

7. HUMANISM AND RENAISSANCE
The Renaissance was a period in which the study of
mathematics became widespread, as a consequence of the
interest in Greek and Roman culture that increased with
the discovery of manuscripts kept in monasteries.

8. THE CATHOLICISM
Jesuits, as the members of the congregation are known,
promoted a system of schools that played a leading role in
the development of Catholic education in many countries
since the 16th century.

9. XVII CENTURY
It was a period of rapid progress of many sciences and
the creation of institutions that supported the
development of scientific knowledge

10. XVIII CENTURY
Among his concrete proposals was the teaching to read
a later age and the study of nature and society by direct
observation

11. XIX CENTURY: SCHOOLING SYSTEMS
Swiss educator Johann Pestalozzi, whose ideas and practices
exercised great influence in schools, adapting the method of
teaching to the natural development of the child

12. XX CENTURY STUDENT-CENTERED
EDUCATION
Progressive education was a teaching system based on
the needs and potentialities of the child rather than on
the needs of society or the precepts of religion

13. WHAT IS PEDAGOGY?
Pedagogy is defined simply as the method, and practice, of teaching. It encompasses:
• Teaching styles
• Teaching theory
• Feedback and assessment
• When people talk about the pedagogy of teaching, they will be referring to the way teachers
deliver the content of the curriculum to a class.

14. PEDAGOGICAL APPROACHES
•1. Behaviourism
A behaviourist pedagogical approach would say learning is teacher centred. It would advocate the
use of direct instruction, and lecture based lessons.
.The theory of Behaviourism in a classroom setting came from pedagogical research by
Thorndike (1911), Pavlov (1927) and Skinner (1957). Behaviourist pedagogy is the theory that the
teacher should be the sole authority figure, and leads the lesson

15. 2. CONSTRUCTIVISM
• Constructivism is based on the pedagogical research of Piaget (1896-1890). Piaget wrote
extensively about ‘schemas’, an idea that learners come ready to learn, and the teacher must
build activities to facilitate their learning.Younger children work things through physically,
whereas older children tackle symbolic and abstract ideas.

16. 3. SOCIAL CONSTRUCTIVISM
• A Social constructivism pedagogy could be considered to be a blend of two priorities: teacher
guided, and student centred. Cognitive psychologist, LevVygotsky developed social
constructivism, building on the work of Piaget, but argued against the ideas of Piaget that
learning could only happen in its social context, and believed that learning was a collaborative
process between student and teacher.

17. 4. LIBERATIONISM
• Liberationism is a critical pedagogy developed by the Brazilian educator, Paulo Freire.
• A liberationist approach is one where the student voice is placed at the centre, and a
democracy is put into the classroom.Value is placed on having the teacher as a learner, and the
class discovering subjects together.
