are in harmonious relationship. All people can easily exist in harmony when society gives them

Great people were instructed by some of the most distinguished teachers of their era to
have quickness of mind and exemplars of modesty.
Idealism is a group of metaphysical philosophies that assert that reality as humans can
know if, it is fundamentally mentally constructed , or otherwise immaterial. It manifests as a
skepticism about the possibility of knowing any mind independent thing. It believes that the
ultimate nature of reality is ideal, or based upon ideas, values or essences. The external, or real
world can not be separated from consciousness, perception, mind, intellect and reason in the
sense of science. Idealism is when you envision or see things in an ideal or perfect manner.
Realism tends toward a more pragmatic and actual view of a situation. Reality exists
independent of the human mind. Truth is objective that can be observed. Aristotle, the Father
of Realism emphasized that the aims of realism include: understand objective reality through the
diligent and unsparing scrutiny of all observable data. The exercise of rational thought is viewed
as the ultimate purpose of humankind. The realist curriculum emphasizes the subject matter of
the physical world, particularly science and mathematics. The teacher organizes and presents
contents systematically within a discipline, demonstrating use of criteria in making decisions.
Teaching methods focus on mastery of facts and basic skills through demonstration and
recitation. Students must also demonstrate the ability to think critically and scientifically using
observation and experimentation. Curriculum should be scientifically approached, standardized,
and distinct- discipline based. Character is developed through training in the rules of
conduct( https:// oregonstate.edu 22 Oct 2018 )
Humanism is a person-centered education philosophy. Learning is student-centered and
personalized, and the educator’s role is that of a facilitator. Affective and cognitive needs are
key, and the goal is to develop self- actualized people in a cooperative, supportive environment

There are 5 principles of Humanistic Education ( facultyweb.cortland.edu 23 Oct 2018):
1. Students should choose what they want to learn. Students will be motivated to learn a subject
if it something they need and want.
2. The goal of education should be to foster student’s desire to learn and teach them how to
learn.
Students should be self-motivated in their studies and they have the desire to learn on their
own.
3. Grades are irrelevant and that only self – evaluation is meaningful. Grading encourages
students to work for a grade and not for personal satisfaction.
4. Both feelings and knowledge are important in the learning process. Humanistic teachers do
not
separate the cognitive and affective domains.
5. Schools need to provide students with a nonthreatening environments so that they will feel
secure to learn.
