What I have learned in module 1 to module 3 in The Teaching Profession

Philosophy of education every action a person makes is considered to have a


deeper meaning, the people that think deeper than just the surface about why a
person made that action are philosophical thoughts. The philosophy of education
is important because it’s the baseline of how a teacher runs the classroom.
Philosophy is not only a professional tool but a way of improving the quality of life
as it helps us gain a deeper and wider perspective of human existence and world
around us.
 There is a need for the people to realize that the study of the
philosophy of education is very much necessary because people were
having difficulty coping up with change inasmuch as this change were
not in the present accelerated rate.
 Philosophy of Education becomes important because it provides the
people with an analysis regarding the use of our ideas in the best way
possible in order to prepare us in facing the future.
The 7 philosophies of education
1. Essentialism to promote the intellectual growth of the individual; to
educate the competent education. Teachers would act as a role models of
enduring values. Essential skill of the 3R’s which is READING, ‘RITING,
RITHMETIC.
2. Progressivism learning occurs as the person engages in the problem solving.
Knowledge leads to growth and development of lifelong learners who
actively learn by doing. Teaching is more exploratory than explainatory. The
method is important than the subject matter.
3. Perennialism to educate the rational person. Teachers helps the students
think with reason. Use of great books and return to liberal.
4. Existentialism number of choice making situations that leads to personal
self-definition. Free learners to choose what to study.
5. Behaviorism student’s behavior is a product of his environment teach
students to respond favorably to various stimuli in the environment.
6. Linguistic philosophy believes and wants its students to believe that
solutions to philosophical problems can be found by reformation of the
language or a deeper and better comprehension of the language.
7. Constructivism , by reflecting on our experiences, we construct our own
understanding of the world we live in.

Module 2
Morality is the quality of human acts by which we call them right or wrong,
god or evil. I realize that doing wrong to others is just an evil so that do not
do any harm to others.

And module 3
