There are many different pioneers that have a philosophy and theories that had an impact. The education today and their theories are based on developing children 's skills in a perfect environment. However, there are three pioneers in education that most influence the education these days: Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Fridrich Froebel, and Maria Montessori.
First, Jean-Jacques Rousseau focused on the child 's freedom and learn in nature. Now we can find schools that focus on the child 's freedom and independence. According to Rousseau, the school environment should be natural like environment that helps children to flourish. In addition, they can depend on the sense that they experience in nature, and he believed that ‘children should be freed from

Moreover, Froebel theory is similar to Rousseau theory that the child should learn in nature. In addition, Froebel wants to teach teachers to be sensitive to child 's willingness and needs. Also, they should do not be taskmasters and should not let the child memorize thing by heard that they do not understand. He believes that the child is a self-active learner. For example, Froebel 's kindergarten or child 's garden that was founded in the year 1837, Its environment should “have games, play, songs, stories, and crafts that help the child learn through his imagination and teach them about the culture heroes and the values.” Like when the child play with other children become in a group that in the future that may help them to be part of the society. Moreover, the kindergarten should have materials that the child could shape: clay, sand, cardboard, and sticks that will let the child use their imagination to build things like a castle. In addition, nowadays many preschools follow Frobel 's theory and let children use their imagination to learn and the teacher considers the child 's need and does not force them to learn things by hard that they may not understand, and the teacher respects the culture values that the child does the
Otherwise, why now the parents spend a lot of money to send their children to a good school to study, because the school education environment to the children’s influence is very important. When Wes A moved to Bronx, his mother had made a decision to send her children to private school after her seeing how poor the public school system had become, so she worked multiple jobs to manage the cost and relied on her parents to take care the children before and after school while at work. “My mother decided soon after our move to the Bronx that I was not going to public school. She wasn’t a snob, she was scared.”(47) Because she knew, if the children are growth of a bad education environment, the children of the world to know nature will be distorted. Without a good education, there is also no habits; No good sense, and also there will be some bad behavior. Today, the rate of crime is high; almost all can find the root cause of their growth environment. Maybe the lack of discipline, discouraged by mistake friends or too much stress, but all shows the importance of good education environment for children to grow
We went ahead and shopped for some souvenirs. I believe I my mom bought me a Batman tee shirt, along with a few other things I could not recall. Then I saw a store that sold candy. Walking in I saw a diverse variety of sweets, and they had everything from chocolate to lollipops. My eye caught a little container full of gummy worms, and I decided to a bag full of them. Once my mom purchased the candy, we began to head out. I remember walking next to my father. When suddenly, boom! I ran into a ginormous window, and my dad walked through the door. My parents and the young lady working the cash register began to laugh. My mom said, "Are you okay?", "Yes, I am fine.” I said. She looked at my forehead, and she noticed I had a small bruise. My mom thought it best that we sat down for a few minutes. I thought we should go on another roller coaster. We ended up getting on The Superman Krypton
A famous Swiss educator, Rousseau was considered to raise the Copernican Revolution after he came up with a theory “children-centered”. In his famous book Emile, he severely criticized rigid and inflexible traditional education which seriously distorted and suppressed the natural world of children. He called for “regard children as children” and asked people to teach children according to children’s physical and mental development rule. (Liu, 2014)
Personally, being an educator gives me a chance to have a great impact on the world. I have always enjoyed seeing the look on someone’s face when they make a new connection or learn something. I have many strong beliefs in the education process and many times feel that the needs of the student are overlooked. As a teacher, the students would be priority and that is the backbone of my teaching philosophy. I know that I am not very experienced and have much to learn. This I will strive to do throughout my education and even when I enter the teacher workforce.
Me and my siblings were at home. Jewel and Chris is there name. Jewel and Chris were watching fairly odd parents and my father was at work. I was making breakfast for my siblings and my grandma was asleep.My grandma slept through everything and even my father thought she was dead. I was in the kitchen when I heard the phone.
While learning about Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), historical trauma, and Ricky Greenwald’s “Who helped you and how?” from the Child Trauma Handbook, I felt my knowledge on trauma work grow and expand.
In grade 2 on the weekend I went to my friends house for a sleepover and we started playing with his little brother. We played a few games and nothing went wrong. Then we played a game where we were running away from his brother and he had to catch us. So we ran upstairs and into his room. We covered the door so he couldn’t get in, but eventually we let him in and he couldn’t get my friend so he went for me. When he finally got me he grabbed my legs and I fell and my head hit the corner of his bed and I was bleeding and screaming like crazy. So I ran down the stairs screaming my bloody head off. So hi mom drove me to the hospital and gave me ice: for my head. When we got the the hospital I was so scared I wasn’t even
Childhood trauma can have a profound impact on the social development of adults. Childhood trauma victims should be handled with care by social work professionals when they are seeking assistance to resolve disruptions in their life that stem from devastating events of their past. The level of care that this population needs to receive should involve utilization of well-developed practice considerations to ensure problem areas are being appropriately addressed. The presence of physical, psychological, personality, mental health disruptions are compelling area that should be needs to be examined amongst childhood trauma survivors. The in depth inspection of these different areas will reveal how the social development of this population is affected
As a school counselor, my mission is to help students learn about themselves and develop in three areas; personal/social, education, and career. I believe that every student has a gift that was given by God and my goal is to help students identify those gifts and purse those gifts to become successful students and citizens.
Pestalozzi, Froebel, and Rousseau made major contributions to education through their ideas and methods. Many of these thought and philosophies are important to me in my current views of students and education, influencing the kind of teacher I aspire to be and the methods I plan to put in place.
Friedrich Froebel was a German scholar born in 1782 who did a lot of work on child’s play and how children use nature in their development. Although one of the early theorists (1782–1852), Froebel’s theories are still relevant today. He stressed the importance of play and recognised that the outdoor environment is vital to children’s learning and development. Each child should be allowed the time and space to play and develop through play activities.
Play and speech constitute the element in which the child lives, therefore imparting on objects everything that he imagines representing his inner being outwardly imputing the same activity to all about him. Thus, in German Kindergarten, Froebel opened to the outside world of children the inner nature of the human spirit, through child-play as the highest phase of human development.
The role of teachers in employing these theories in their work is to design and plan their curriculum to stimulate children’s learning and cognitive development through play. Educators are acting as the stage manager. They are required to schedule some time for children to participate in open-ended, self-initiated free play. They need to set up environments for play, planning schedules with enough space, materials and time for children to play. For instance, an early childhood teacher has decided to let children play with sand in a day. She /He needs to set up the sand center in a safe area and supervises children fully to make sure that children are playing safely. She /He needs to provide sufficient supply of tools and materials to use in sand so that every child have adequate choices to choose the tools they want. Rather than divide the tools for children, the educator make children do their own choices and therefore children can gain some sense of control. When children are playing with sand, the educator should observe each child carefully, encouraging them to solve the problems themselves and consider their feelings (Crosser, n.d.). Moreover, the educator should interactive with children responsively and positively. She /He can ask questions including “What do you think/ feel about playing with
Ever since a long time ago, adolescents had always been taught by teachers in several different ways. Since, every teacher has their own belief in a certain type of philosophy because not everyone is the same. As well as, there is no right way for a teacher to teach with their specific philosophy since, each child has their own way of learning. On a few occasions a student will appreciate other philosophies that my classmates did not infer to have had in their survey they had taken. Depending on the type of philosophy the teacher uses on the students shapes the way the classroom.
The environment through which education is realized is critical for the learning children. In this aspect, there exist many forms of schooling that support education of children; public schooling, home schooling and private schooling. However, each method of schooling has its own advantages and disadvantages compared to other schooling methods. The above arguments are based on both home schooling and public schooling. Each schooling method focuses on pertinent issues that make the method as the most ideal compared to the other. Moreover, these arguments focus in realization of specific goals of education and education environments as indicated in each subheading.
