Relationship between Philosophy and

Education

Philosophy and education have a deep relationship. The goals are set by philosophy, and education tells us how to get there. Philosophy is a way of thinking, and education is a way of doing things. Philosophy is a way of thinking, and education is a way of doing things. Education is a form of practical philosophy. Whereas education focuses on the concrete, philosophy is more concerned with abstractions. Two sides to the coin: education and philosophy. All of history's greatest thinkers were also among its greatest teachers.

Education's Purpose and Objectives The dominant educational philosophy dictates the educational objectives. Different educational philosophies prescribe different educational goals. When it comes to education, Idealism focuses on self-improvement, while Naturalism focuses on self-defense. Education's aims can vary depending on the philosophy in place at any given time. Those who believe in democracy are more likely to become democrats. In a nutshell, philosophy is the driving force behind education's goals.

Curriculum and Philosophical Thoughts To achieve the goals of education, a school's curriculum includes all of the activities and experiences it offers its students. When it comes to deciding on a school's curriculum, nowhere is this philosophical dependence on education more apparent than in practise. The curriculum's content is determined by philosophical principles. Depending on the philosophy of the school, the curriculum's content can be quite different.

Idealists stress the importance of life's higher values and advocate for the study of religion, ethics, logic, literature, the arts, and the humanities, among other subjects.

Functioning and social sciences are favoured by pragmatic thinkers. Pragmatists include language, social studies, general science, practical arithmetic, and arts and crafts in their curriculum. There is a practical purpose to these topics.

There is a strong emphasis on physical sciences and direct experiences among Naturalists. Children should be taught according to their current interests and activities rather than their past experiences, according to the Naturalistic school of thought. A child's aptitude and ability are taken into consideration when deciding which subjects to teach them. As a result, the curriculum's content is influenced by philosophical

considerations.

Teaching Philosophy and Methods The two, philosophy and teaching methods, are inseparably linked. As a discipline, philosophy is a way of life. The act of establishing and maintaining physical contact between a student and the material being taught is known as the teaching method. Teaching methods vary from system to system based on their philosophical foundations. Methods such as lectures, roundtable discussions, and question-and-answer sessions are all part of the idealist teaching approach. Naturalists place a high priority on the education of children. They advocate hands-on, experiential learning. Practitivists are proponents of project management, problem-solving techniques, and team-based approaches.

Educator and Philosopher The educational process would not be what it is without the teacher. As a person and as a teacher, a teacher needs to study philosophy. As a teacher, philosophy has a profound impact on your thinking and your teaching. A teacher is both a thinker and a doer, with their own set of ideas and convictions. A teacher has a profound impact on a student's mindset and outlook on life. Having high ideals, ethics, and morals, one can be considered an idealistic teacher. He must serve as an example for the students. Teachers are seen as stage-setters in Naturalism, who work behind the curtain. Teachers, according to Pragmatism, are friends and guides to their students, helping them grow as individuals.

Textbooks and Philosophical Thought A tcxt book lays out the expectations for what knowledge students should possess. In order for textbooks to be accepted by society, they must adhere to the prevailing educational philosophy and national ideals.

Discipline and Philosophy The discipline's nature and form are determined by philosophy. The student's behaviour is what defines discipline. A country's political, economic, and philosophical outlook is always reflected in the discipline it employs. A nation's health is dependent on its citizens' adherence to a strict code of personal conduct. Idealists believe in a strict regimen of mental and physical discipline. A discipline of natural consequences is held by naturalists and a free discipline by pragmaticists. A democratic and socially conscious view of discipline has emerged, one that is in harmony with democratic values such as political integrity and the preservation of the environment.
