Out of all the theories of education, the one I agree the most is
progressivism. The curriculum for progressivism focuses on problem-solving
and learning through experience. It teaches the students to think for
themselves and draw their own conclusions. Students would have the chance
to do everything hands-on rather than listening to a lecture. I think that's very
important for young students, especially in early elementary school, because
sitting still all day is so difficult for them. Giving students the opportunity to go
to museums for art, or historical buildings for social studies gets them
interested in what they are learning and makes it feel more real to them.
Instead of being bored at school, students would be excited about what they
are learning. Progressivism also supports an open classroom. I believe it's
important for students to frequent the community and be a part of the world
outside their home and the classroom. Children need to have life experiences
and be able to relate what they are learning to the real world so that the
subject matter has relevance.
A progressive teacher would most often use group projects in the
classroom. again, this model's real life, in that students learn to work together
to come up with a common solution, rather than having the teacher just tell
them the correct answer. This method is a great way for students to learn
problem-solving and develop critical thinking skills. I believe these are lifelong
skills that are important for children to learn at an early age, and that they will
use them for the rest of their lives.
