Spartan
The paradigm that I chose to criticize is Spartan. Spartan’s education style seems to be very interesting. At the age of seven girls and boys began to live together in open air barracks. In the barracks they were taught obedience, how to take care of themselves and how to get along with each other. The main focus of a Spartan education was not to focus on literacy, but to produce good soldiers. The society was entirely towards the military life. The education was a harsh process of training for men that would later be necessary when they began their lives as adults. They learned how to wrested, run, throw, and fight to prepare them for the military life. Dancing and music was important for the ceremonial and recreational occasions.
