Philosophy of education

Shantae Prigmore My Personal Philosophy of Education Children are the future. They need and deserve committed, educated, understanding, teachers. Children have the potential to change the world and offer something unique and new. They are all special individuals. Each student has many different talents and abilities.

Education has always been my main focus in life. I enjoyed school when I was younger, and I strived to achieve in school when I grew up. In elementary school, I had several teachers that made learning enjoyable. One particular teacher inspired me to believe in myself. She taught me how important it is to follow my dreams. To this day, she guides me and encourages me in my endeavors. She continues to teach me what is most important in life. Furthermore, she shows me how education can impact and…

A Personal Philosophy of Education and Learning I firmly believe that children, regardless of circumstances all have the capability to learn and teach others something meaningful and important. The time just needs to be taken to find the method the child can best use to do this. Not all children are equal in how they learn or express the ideas that they learn and it should be our job to help find that method and allow for the child to use it at its fullest potential. Both the ideas of multiple…

My philosophy of education Introduction In this paper I am going to write about my philosophy of education which reflects my own vision and it is slightly inspired by educational philosophies and schools of thoughts which I relate to the most.

Also, I'm going to sum up this paper by discussing where my…

Key Point #1 A key point I inferred while reading chapter four was that the success of Integrated literacy instruction, like other comprehension strategies, rests upon the background knowledge of the students. A possible example of this is on page 95, where Sophia explains that her class was losing interest in the ocean unit they were learning about, so she moved on to something else. I have to wonder how many of the children in her class had actually been to the ocean, or had any prior…

The common misconception of the term education is that it is just about pursuing a higher education degree. This statement is not entirely true. A person can in fact be educated without higher learning, by going to the library and reading about different subjects. People with a higher education degree know more, but this is not necessarily enough because the other part of being educated is life experiences. A person can be book smart, but that is not nearly enough because what a person learns in…

reasons I have chosen a career in Inclusive Early Childhood Education. Being a teacher, I know that I too will be able to provide a young child with the same kind of positive influence. As a senior in high school I had the opportunity to participate in the Mentorship Program. The goal of the program is to allow the students to experience a career by gaining a first-hand experience. Eight weeks are…

My philosophy of education is comprehensive, and I concur with various aspects of Perennialism, Essentialism, Progressivism, and Social Reconstructionism. Essentialism is the philosophy I am most familiar with and it has had a profound impact on me. Perennialism is also a philosophy that has had significant influence on my beliefs. Progressive and Social Constructionism also contribute certain ideals to my educational philosophy. Although I do not agree with each aspect of these curriculum…
