When the pro-slavery states are defeated, America sees the start of a democracy in the country. The Emancipation Proclamation was the first ...

Philosophy of Education

In my argument, I would like heavily borrow from the propositions of Maria Montessori and John Dewey. My philosophy of education is therefore based on learner-centered learning in which the learner becomes the focal point of the teaching and learning process (Kolb, D., 2004). As an early childhood specialist, I believe that pre-school stage of learning should be highly regarded because it is the real foundation in a pupil’s education experience. Hence, learning should be made more pragmatic by actively engaging the learners. They should be taught a wide range of subjects and be given an ample opportunity ...
