  4. Existentialism… • Activity: Students choose a topic to create a presentation on, and also choose the means in which they present. • Role of Teacher: Seeks to get to know each student. • Role of Student: Students choose their preferred medium, and evaluate themselves. • Pros: Students are able to explore topics they are interested in, students choose their own pace of learning. • Cons: Students may get side-tracked easily, students may not learn as much with less guidance. • Famous Endorsers: A.S Neill and Maxine Green

  5. Essentialism… • Activity: Lecturing from a presentation; students are guided by this/take notes. • Role of Teacher: To be a model of academic and moral virtue. • Role of Student: To be culturally literate and competitive in the world. • Pros: Lots of direct instruction, lots of guidance from teacher. • Cons: Lecturing may become tedious, students might lose interest more easily because of the less hands-on concept. • Famous Endorsers: Will Bagley and E.D Hirsch

  6. perenialism • Activity: Studying a classic novel. • Role of Teacher: To be a scholarly role model. • Role of Student: To increase personal intelligence and appreciate learning. • Pros: Students learn morals; students learn how to analyze. • Cons: Almost a complete focus on books, less lecturing time in class from teacher. • Famous Endorsers: Robert Hutchins and Mortimer Adler

  7. Which philosophy we align with… • We both identify with “Progressivism”, because of the hands-on learning techniques. Students seem to learn best by physically doing things and being involved in the class, and therefore are typically more productive and willing to learn.
