Purpose of Education
- about bringing
value, growth and
freedom to people.
- I agree with Mitch in
that education's
purpose is freedom
through liberation of
the individual.
- Freire's Liberation
Pedagogy that has the
aim of making
individual's aware of the
political and
socio-cultural reality and
their capacity to
transform through action
- I reject the idea of the
"Banking System"
method of teaching as
does Freire and value
his concept of
conscientiousation.

- I believe that education
is about bringing value
and growth just like
Mitch said but I also
believe that the point of
education is to prepare
students to live a useful
life.
- The point of education is to prepare students to live a useful life.
By having education we learn new techniques and skills to
become a valued member of society. In preschool you learn
fundamental movement skills such as catching, in primary you
learn social skills and develop cognitive and physical skills. In high
school you perfect those skills and learn new skills to live with
such as cooking, sewing and woodwork. In tertiary education you
learn something that can help society for instance we are learning
about education with means me can go and help those who need
to learn how to be helpful in society. Making us a valued member
of society.

- Paulo Freire: education is
"the practice of freedom, the
means by which men and
women deal critically with
reality and discover how to
participate in the
transformation of their
world".
- education is for everyone, especially
anyone who is under any sort of
oppression. As someone with serious
health issues I relate with the feeling of
oppression and I look at my own
University education as a means of
escaping my oppression from renal
failure. It shows me that my health
issues cannot rule every part of me.

- I agree with Montessori in terms of
her view that education should be
structured yet influenced through
the needs of students (combination
of freedom and discipline) to
develop independence and
responsibility in the learner which
will make them a strong life-long
leaner.
- Like Nicola and
Mitch I agree
strongly with
Freire and
Montessori.
- my opinion is that the
purpose of education is the
allowing people, no matter
age, ability, status or class
the ability to rise above their
circumstances and give them
opportunities to better
society. This agrees with
Freire's opinion that genuine
education can and should
enable and empower the
recognition of oppression
and partake in its
transformation.
- I also relate to Freire and
Montessori in the their beliefs in
the freedom and universal
access of education.
Montessori's acceptance of the
"whole child" further links back
to ideas of Dewey's connection
of home and school life.
Montessori progresses through
education by addressing simple
but vital life skills such as tying
shoelaces and getting dressed.

- I agree with
Montessori in her
approach to
educating the
'whole child' -
physical, mental
and emotional -
and also agree with
education being
'freedom of choice
within ordinary
structure'.
- I think the purpose of
education is to prepare
students for a fulfilling life. Like
was mentioned in group
meeting last week, I think
educations purpose is to focus
on the whole person not just
certain aspects of it. I guess it's
a very Montessori way of
thinking.
- Like Nicola and
Mitch I agree
strongly with
Freire and
Montessori.
- Education should also prepare students
with predispositions to develop skills for
"earning a living but also for that part of
life which does not involve work" (Karmel).
This is done through nurturing and guiding
of character building within students. I
think that Karmel has some incredibly
relevant points for what the purpose of
education is as he is more recent.
- I really like Confucius'
education including and
focusing on ethics,
encouraging and teaching
people to do what is right.
- Dewey argued that education isn't
about growing up into a valued
member, that its more about how to
live pragmatically and immediately in
their current environment. But with
him saying that I believe that the only
way to become a valued member of
society is to understand their current
environment, I believe they both
come together as one rather than a
either or scenario.
- I really like the idea of the connection
between school and home life discussed
by John Dewey. I agree with his idea that
"school should grow gradually out of home
life." (p.145) The importance of a school
environment that is as real and vital as the
experiences a child has at home. For me,
this speaks to social relevance and the
needs for schools to be in touch with their
communities and "educating" students on
issues that are most prevalent in modern
society. This means that no subjects are
taboo - as these are often the topics at the
forefront of societal evolution.
