1. Explain in a sentence why each education philosopher was associated with these given
words:
a) John Locke – the empiricist
John Locke is related with the word empiricist because he is an empiricist educator who
believes that knowledge is achieved via experience and observation by employing our senses in
our interactions with our environment. Because the learner is an active agent of his own
learning.

b) Spencer – the utilitarianist

Because he was a utilitarian educator and felt that we should fit in with our society, Spencer is
linked to the term utilitarianist. His primary areas of interest are professional and vocational
programmes with a practical and scientific foundation.
c) John Dewey – experience
Because he thought that learning is an ongoing process and that we learn from our
experiences, John Dewey is linked to the phrase "learning through experience." The saying
"experience is the best teacher" is one I've included in this quote because no matter what
challenges we face—positive or negative—we can't deny that they affect our life and the way we
see the world.
d) George Counts – Building a new social order
George Counts is linked to the phrase "building a new social order" because he thinks that
educators may make a significant impact on society by teaching and educating pupils, which in
turn transforms society.
e) Theodore Brameld – the Social Reconstructionist
Because of his emphasis on social reformation—in which schools have a duty to assess the
culture and educate students about social issues so they may become involved in finding
solutions to improve society—Theodore Brameld is linked to the term "social reconstructionist."
f) Paulo Freire – Critical pedagogy vs. Banking method
Paulo Freire is associated with the term "critical pedagogy vs. banking method" because he
suggests a critical pedagogy in which the teacher uses his knowledge to enlighten the students

and challenge the inequality in their society because he believes that instead of teaching as
banking, teachers see themselves as sole possessors and their students as empty receptacles.
