This document discusses multiculturalism and multicultural education. It defines multiculturalism as emphasizing unique cultural characteristics and their relationships in receiving nations. The advantages are listed as leading cultural exchanges, adding variety to citizens' lives, and bridging ignorance. The disadvantages include anxiety over national identity, disunity, and questionable loyalties. Multicultural education aims to create equal opportunities and transform schools and society. It discusses four approaches: contributions, additive, transformation, and social action. The goals are preparing students for a pluralistic society and promoting democracy.
Anthropological Foundations of EducationSergz Diaz
The following slides contain the concepts on anthropological foundations of education which serve as one of the pillars of our educational system. This anthropological foundation traces back the history of our education in terms of the early forms of Philippine culture, beliefs, customs and traditions which served as patterns reflected to the kind of educational reform who have today.
Anthropology, specifically cultural anthropology is one of the foundations of education and the educational system. It greatly effects how the educational system is designed.
The Seven Philosophies of Education
Existentialism - Existentialism in education focuses on the individual, seeking out a personal understanding of the world.
Essentialism - Essentialism values the “essence” of each object. Essence refers to the attribute, or set of attributes that make an object what it fundamentally is, and must have.
Progressivism - Progressivism holds 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.
Behaviorism - Behaviorism holds that behavior is shaped deliberately by forces in the environment and that the type of person and actions desired can be the product of design.
Constructivism - Constructivism claims that the learner actively constructs his or her own understandings of reality through interaction with objects, events, and people in the environment, and reflecting on these interactions. For learning to occur, an event, object, or experience must conflict with what the learner already knows. Therefore, the learner's previous experiences determine what can be learned.
Linguistic Philosophy - Linguistic philosophy is the view that philosophical problems could be solved (or dissolved) either by reforming language or by understanding more about the language that we presently use.
Perennialism - Perennialism is a normative educational philosophy according to which one should teach the things that are of everlasting relevance to all people everywhere and that the emphasis should be on principles, not facts.

John Daley looks at how Australasian economies and cities are changing. Despite mining and agricultural booms, economic activity is gravitating towards big cities and their centres. These new patterns create challenges: longer commutes; geographic divides that limit opportunities for both businesses and individuals; and put social fabric under strain.
To make the most of 21st century urbanisation - and share the benefits fairly, there need to be reforms to planning, transport and taxation. These are the core of the reform agenda for our times.

INTRODUCTION:
Whenever two or more people come together with a shared purpose, they form a culture with its own written and unwritten rules for behavior. Our families, workplaces, and communities all have cultures. These cultures have a tremendous, though rarely recognized, impact upon our behavior as individuals.
Each cultural environment provides a set of standards to which we must adapt. Our behavioral patterns change dramatically from one cultural context to another. We are expected to behave in accordance with our cultures, but if we choose not to go along, we must be prepared for the consequences. When we select goals for ourselves that violate the culture, we must either change the culture or endure a never- ending struggle.
Changes in culture that are initiated by a group need cultural support of the members of the group, or else they will not last long. A supportive cultural environment is needed for a lasting change.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.
