John Dewey, Wm. H. Kilpatrick
Progressivism
Experimentalism
Education is life, not preparation for lifeEducation is directly related to interests of the childLearning is best accomplished through problem solvingThe teacher’s role is not to direct but to adviseSchools should encourage cooperation rather than competitionOnly democracy permits – in fact, encourages - the free interplay of ideas and personalities, both of which are required for true growth
Lloyd Duck, Teaching With Charisma.
Reconstructivism Lloyd Duck, Teaching With Charisma
Tthe child, the school, and education itself are shaped by social and cultural forces.Civilization now faces the possibility of self annihilation. The means and ends of education must be refashioned to meet the demands of the cultural crisis. In Fact,….The main purpose of education should be to promote a clearly thought-out program of social reform.The new society must be a genuine democracy.People must be persuaded to reconstruct society AND this persuasion should begin in school.
Negotiating or Haggling
Assumptions
Ultimate value of society is human dignity which calls for personal freedom and choice But the basic values that we can choose among (freedom of speech, equality of opportunity, cultural autonomy, representation ...) conflict from time to timeSociety consists of people with conflicting views Negotiation is always required; in fact, a free society requires open conflict and negotiation
Jurisprudential ModelA high-level model for citizenship education
Think systematically about contemporary issuesSociety consists of people with legitimate conflicting issuesNegotiation is always requiredThree types of competence– Familiarity with agreed-upon the values framework
(Declaration of Independence, Constitution, Bill of Rights, other Amendments)
– Skills in resolving issues– Knowledge of contemporary political and public issues
Basic Social Values
Rule of law
Equal protection under the law
Due process
Justice
Preservation of peace and order
Personal liberty
Separation of powers
Local control of local problems
(Joyce/Weil, p. 84)
Bill of RightsThe Protection of Human Values
Freedom• To think and act on own behalf
Justice• Due process; governmental fairness
Equality• Distribution of burdens and benefits
But all balanced with the welfare and needs of other members of the larger
communityThe Balance
Individual Rights of Rights Larger Community
Or the “Spock” Question
Do the needs of the many outnumber the needs of the few OR
Do the needs of the few – or the one - outnumber the needs of the many?
Instructional
Nurturant
Jurisprudential Inquiry Model
(Joyce/Weil, p. 93)
Most Arguments Center on Three Types of Problems
Definitional– What are the meaning of all words used to express
the problem and the issues
Value– Good or bad? Yes or no?
Factual– What really happened from the perspectives of all?
How Deal with the Model?
ConcreteSituations
What are thefacts? Whatare the issues?
A Statement in policy form.. “Should ….”
What are the conflicts?
What are the classes ofvalues?
Deal with the Model
Have there been similar cases? What
was determined there?
Any compromisespossible?
Take a stand - Argumentation
Findings?
What are the classes of values?

Legitimate educational purpose
Health and safety
Serious disruption of the educational process– Need for definition of “serious”– Is a threat of disruption enough to sustain the rule?– For whom is the rule intended, the individual who is
exercising his/her Constitutional rights or the majority who would be disquieted?
So when individual rights are considered damaged
Burden of proof still rests on complaining student(s)
But all balanced with the welfare and needs of other members of the larger
communityThe Balance

Roots in Personal SocialDimensions
•Finding personal meaning within social worlds
•Resolve personal dilemmas with assistance of group
A Vehicle for Students to
Explore their feelingsGain insight into their attitudes, values, and perceptionsDevelop problem-solving skills and attitudesExplore subject matter in varied ways (Joyce/Weil, p. 60)
Some AssumptionsPeople can gain some control over their belief systems if they recognize their values and attitudes AND test them with the views of othersThe ‘here and now” is the real content of the classEmotions can be brought to consciousness and enhancedStudents’ feelings can be drawn out and released– Recall the “catharsis” of Rogers’ model
Assuming Roles…
“patterned sequences of feelings, words, actions…”The effect of taking another person’s side
