Curriculum
Perennialists
believe that reading is to be supplemented
with mutual investigations (between the teacher and the
students) and minimally-directed discussion through the
Socratic method in order to develop a historically oriented
understanding of concepts.
Why should perennialism be applied in teaching?
These principles are likely to make one develop a good personality and
morality if learned and applied in life.
Willbe useful in later life specially when learners begin to appreciate the
need to be educated of the facts and knowledge.
