Editor's Notes

  1. Pragma – “Activity” or “Practice” emphasizes the importance of teaching practical, useful knowledge and skills that can adapt to the evolving needs of students and the world they live in, rather than focusing on fixed theories or absolute truths that may not be directly applicable to their lives. Pragmatism asserts that truth and values are not absolute or unchanging but are instead relative and subject to evolution based on context, experience, and changing circumstances. This perspective informs how pragmatists approach education and the development of critical thinking skills in students. Key proponents C.B. Pierce, John Dewey, William James, and others.
  2. emphasize the need for educational systems and practices to be flexible, student-centered, and responsive to the ever-changing nature of life. believe that education should address the fundamental biological needs of students. This includes providing them with the knowledge and skills necessary for physical well-being and survival. For example, it involves teaching students about health, nutrition, safety, and other aspects of personal well-being. Meeting these biological needs is seen as a foundational step in preparing students for a productive life. education should not be limited to the acquisition of academic knowledge but should also encompass physical, emotional, social, and ethical development. All-round development ensures that students are well-prepared for various aspects of life.
