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.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

truth.
22. Example:
My philosophy of Education as a Grade School Teacher
I believe that every child
has a natural interest in learning and is capable of learning
is an embodied spirit
Can be influenced but not totally by his/her environment
is unique and so comparing a child to other children has no basis
does not have an empty mind, rather is full of ideas and it is my task to draw out
these ideas.
I believe that there are unchanging values in changing times and these must
be passed on to every child by my modeling, value inculcation and value
integration in my lesson.
23. I believe that my task as a teacher is to facilitate the development of every
child to the optimum and to maximum by:
reaching out to all children without bias and prejudice towards the “least” of the children.
making every child feel good and confident about him/herself through his/her experiences
of success in the classroom.
helping every children master the basic skill of reading, communicating in oral or written
form, arithmetic and computer skills.
teaching my subject matter with mastery so that every child will use her/his basic skills to
continue acquiring knowledge, skills and values for him/her to go beyond basic literacy and
basic numeracy.
inculcating or integrating the unchanging values of respect, honesty, love and care for
others regardless of race, ethnicity, nationality, appearance and economic status in my
lessons
consistently practicing these values to serve as model for every child
strengthening the value formation of every child through hands-on-minds-on-hearts –on
experiences inside and outside the classroom.
Providing every child activities meant to develop the body, the mind and the spirit.

best hope”
“A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stop.”
27. What is Morality?
- the quality if human acts by which we call them right or
wrong, good or evil

norm, rule, or law of morality. Otherwise it is said to be
wrong.
28. Meaning of Foundational Moral principle

- on which something is based, founded, originated or initiated.
- foundation of a building upon which all other parts stand.
Meaning of Foundational Moral principle
- The universal norm upon which all other principles on the
rightness or wrongness of an action are based. It is the
source of morality.
- contained in the natural law.
29. Natural Law

- man’s share in the Eternal Law of God (Theist, 1964)
- the light of natural reason, whereby we discern what is good and what
is evil ..an imprint on us of the divine light. (St. Thomas)

FUNDAMENTAL OR FOUNDATIONAL MORAL PRINCIPLE.
- built into the design of human nature and woven into the fabric of the
normal human mind.
30. “Writings, customs, and monuments of past
and present generations point out to this
conclusion: that all peoples on earth, no
matter how savage and illiterate, have
recognize a supreme law divine origin
commanding good and forbidding evil”
(Pacino, 1964)
31. All men have a mind which cannot bear to see the suffering of others…
If now men suddenly see a child about to fall into a well, they will without
exception experience a feeling of alarm and distress… from this case we
may perceive that ho who lacks the feeling of commiseration is not a man;
that he who lacks a feeling of shame and dislike is not a man; he who lacks
a feeling of modesty and yielding is not a man; and that he who lacks a
sense of right and wrong is not a man… man has these four beginnings.
(Mencius, A Chinese philosopher)
32. “Do not do to others what you do not like others to do to you” – Kung-fu-tsu
“Do to others what you like others do to you” – Golden rule of Christianity

- appear only in regard of objects intentionally given as
“absolute”.
Example:
Belief
Adoration
Bliss
41. Max Scheler’s Hierarchy of Values
Values of the Holy
Spiritual Values
Vital values
Pleasure Values
42. We act and live well if we stick to Scheler’s hierarchy of values
We will live miserably if we distort Scheler’s hierarchy of values
43. Values Clarification
What is Value Clarification?
What is value confusion?
When we don’t know what we really value or when we are not
clear on what we really value, we end up lukewarm or uncommitted to
a value?
44. The advocate of value clarification assert that we must clarify
what we really value..
Values – individual beliefs, attitudes and activities that are:
a. Freely chosen
b. chosen from among alternatives
c. chosen after due reflection
d. prized and cherished
e. publicly affirmed
f. incorporated into actual behavior
g. acted upon repeatedly in one’s life
46. Etymology of the word “Vocation”
Vocation - a strong desire to spend your life doing a certain kind of ``
work (such as religious work)
- the work that a person does or should be doing
- from the Latin word “vocare” – to call
- teaching is a call
- there must be a caller and a responder
- it was God who called you here for you to teach
47. Etymology of the word “Mission”
Mission - any important task or duty that is assigned, allotted, or self-imposed
- an important goal or purpose that is accompanied by strong
conviction
- from the Latin word “Misio” –To send
- you are called to be a teacher and you are sent to the world to
accomplish a mission, to teach.
48. “Once a teacher, forever a student”
- you have a mission that calls for a continuing professional
education
- how is your preparation?
- your unique and most significant contribution to the
humanization of life on earth is in the field where you are
prepared for – teaching.
- to teach is to influence every child entrusted in your care to
become better and happier because life becomes more
meaningful . To teach is to help the child become more human.
49. Dear Teachers:
I am a survivor of a concentration camp.
my eyes saw what no man should witness:
- gas chambers built by learned engineers.
- Children poisoned by educated physician.
- Infants killed by trained nurses.
-Woman and babies shot and burned by high school and college
graduates
So I am suspicious of education. My request is: help your student become
human. Your efforts must never produce learned monster, skilled
psychopaths, and Eichmann’s.
Reading, writing, arithmetic are important only if they serve to make our
children more human.
50. Teaching: Mission and/or Job?
If you are doing it only because you are paid for it, it’s a job.
If you are doing it not only for the pay but also for service, it’s a mission.
If you quit because your boss or colleague criticized you, it’s a job;
If you keep on teaching out of love, it’s a mission.
If you teach because it does not interfere with your other activities, it’s a job.
If you are committed to teaching even if it means letting go of other activities, it’s a mission.
If you quit because no one praises or thanks you for what you do, it’s a job.
If you remain teaching even though nobody recognizes your efforts, it’s a mission.
It’s hard to get excited about a teaching job;
Its almost impossible not to get excited about a mission.
If our concern is success, it’s a job;
If our concern is success plus faithfulness, it’s a mission.
An average school is filled by teachers doing their teaching job;
A great school is filled with teachers involved in mission of teaching.
51. The element of a Profession
“The term professional is one of the most exalted in the English
language, denoting as it does, long and arduous years of preparation, a
striving for excellence, a dedication to the public interest, and
commitment to moral and ethical values.”
– Hon. Hermogenes P. Pobre,
52. Teaching as your profession
- end goal of profession is service
- we cannot give what we do not have
- do more, have more in order to be more
- you must be willing to go through a long period of preparation
and a continuing professional development. You must strive
for excellence, commit yourself to moral, ethical and
religious values and dedicate yourself to public service
- the “pwede na” mentality is inimical to excellence, indicator of
defeatism and resignation to mediocrity.
53. TEACHING may not be a lucrative position. It can
not guarantee financial security.
It even means investing your personal time , energy, and resources.
Sometimes it means disappointments, heartaches, and pains.
But touching the hearts of people and opening the minds of children
can give you joy and contentment which money could not buy.
These are the moments I teach for. These are the moments I live for.
