Describe the curriculum designed based on idealism.
IDEALISM
Idealism, in philosophy, is any view that stresses the central role of the ideal or the spiritual in interpreting experience.
In idealism, education aims to discover and develop each individual's abilities and complete moral excellence to serve society better. The curricular emphasis is the subject matter of mind: literature, history, philosophy, and religion. Teaching methods focus on handling ideas through lectures, discussion, and Socratic dialogue (a way of teaching that uses questioning to help students discover and clarify knowledge). Introspection, intuition, insight, and whole-part logic (The fallacy of composition arises when one infers that something is true of the whole from the fact that it is true of some part of the whole) are used to bring to consciousness the forms or concepts which are latent in mind. Character is developed through imitating examples and heroes.
THE CURRICULUM AND IDEALISM
The human race's experiences as the epitome of sciences and humanities should provide the primary consideration in deciding on a curriculum. According to naturalists, the present occasions, activities, and interests should be the guiding factor. The idealists believe that the child's present and future actions are unnecessary for curriculum construction.
The idealist's point of view is subjective, as opposed to merely objective values. He attaches great importance to the quality of personal greatness, which some issues have in abundance. The idealist does not emphasize one subject in preference to another.
The pragmatists emphasize the principle of utility as the main criteria for determining the nature of the curriculum.
In "Philosophy of Education," Lodge writes: "All subjects on the curriculum will be used to develop mastery over techniques to solve new problems rather than to train memory capable of flawless reproduction of systematic contents."
