Philosophies o Educa ion
Philosophy is a sys em o belie s abou eali y. I includes an unde s anding o he na u e o exis ence,
humankind, and i s ole in he wo ld. Philosophy is he ounda ion o knowledge. I p o ides p emises by which
man can disco e u h, and uses his mind o suppo his li e. I c i ically examines eali y cha ac e ized by
a ional inqui y ha aims a he T u h o he sake o a aining wisdom.
Idealism
The oldes sys ema ic ideology o philosophy in Wes e n cul u e aced back on he philosophical posi ion o
Pla o (427-347 BC). In he idealis pe suasion, he powe o he mind inds essence in he cul u e o e hical
cha ac e and mo al eason. Pla o elabo a es his posi ion as he w o e:
“When a man hinks, he becomes all he cha ac e in a d ama se in his mind.
He inspi es, he answe s his inqui y, he e alua es, he conside s i s one al e na i e and hen ano he , he makes
up his mind, hen pu sues ano he di ec ion and so on. This is he ma ix ou o which his delibe a e belie s
come”
The Idealism and Philosophy o Educa ion(2014) blog s a es ha he eache is he symbol o model o good
cha ac e , he mas e s o all so o knowledge, and so he eache has he cen al ole in he eaching-lea ning
(Singh, 2007). The eache has he igh o choose sui able con en om he a ailable li e a u e o each. Thus, i
is necessa y ha eache s uphold he s anda d o p o essional excellence ha is mo ally and in ellec ually
wo hy o ollow. Since he s uden is a passi e ecep o , he s a egies in eaching should encou age hem o
hink and o apply c i e ia in seeking he u h, class oom managemen should emphasize sel -con ol, mo al
judgmen and indi idual esponsibili y, as he cu iculum is subjec -cen e ed. The idealis eache accep s he
ideas o he s uden s, acili a e hinking h ough gene a ion o ideas, and encou ages he s uden s o sha e hei
own ideas. Lec u e is he mos ly used me hod o ins uc ion whe e he s uden s lis en o he eache -cen e ed
app oach (Aliman, A. 2020)
Realism
This philosophy, ha has i s oo s on idealism, is a sys em o hough ha assumes bes he eali y o idea and
expe ience. I is an idea o eali y ha is no me ely p oduc o he human mind o pu e imagina ion bu
expe ien ial. This is a philosophy ha came as a esul o he pedagogical clash o Pla o and A is o le. Sco e
(1991) claims ha he ealis sees ha he e exis s an ex e nal wo ld independen o mind, and ha any hing ha
exis s possesses quan i y and quali y. He added ha wo ld ( he na u al o de ) can be p edic ed and con olled,
and ha alues depend in he elegance o na u e, and i s laws. Thus o be a ealis eache , one mus be able o
ela e lessons o he s uden s’ expe iences and elies on au hen ici y made es s capable and applicable o assess
lea ning ou pu s; uses eaching s a egies which s ess oppo uni ies o disco e y app oach in p oblem sol ing

wi h ules o ex insic punishmen and in insic ewa ds acco ding o acknowledged c i e ia, and uses he
cu iculum as subjec -cen e ed emphasizing accoun abili y and concep -d i en. In addi ion, ealism ecommends
p epa ing s uden s o eal and p ac ical li e o ma e ial wo ld which can be gained h ough senses.
Realism acco ding o Du a, S (2020)is in a o o aining o eache s be o e hey in ol e in eaching. Realism
belie es ha eache s should ha e ull knowledge o he subjec ma e , psychology o lea ne s and he scien i ic

Exis en ialism
This philosophy s a es ha indi iduals a e esponsible o de e mining o hemsel es wha is ue o alse, igh

Sco e (1991) s a es ha exis en ialis s philosophical s ance is dependen on subjec i e ac o s cen e ed on
eason and passion. The ques ion o “who am I” is one ha b ings he pe son in o in ospec ion and e lec ion o
how meaning ul li e is. In addi ion, Kie kegaa d (1813-1855) s ongly poin s ou in one o his li e a y wo ks as
quo ed by Bu le (1968), Kapla (1992), and Faja is (1996) ha wi h exis en ialism, “li e mus be unde s ood
backwa d, bu mus be li ed o wa d.” Rela i ely, Sa e (1905-1990), Collin and Cook (2001) claim ha
“exis ence p ecedes essence” which means ha he e exis s no uni e sal inbo n human na u e. Man is bo n and
exis s, and eely de e mines his essence. Thus man is wha he makes o himsel . As ci ed by D ew (2022)
“Exis en ialis holds ha he humans ha e no p egi en pu pose o essence laid ou o hem by God o by na u e;
i is up o each one o us o decide who and wha we a e h ough ou own ac ions” (Guignon, 2013). Lawless
(2005, p. 326) w i es ha exis en ialis s belie e ha “ he e a e no uni e sal s anda ds o a human li e: we a e
wha we do, he sum o ou ac ions.” Duignan (2011, p. 113) w i es ha exis en ialis s belie e ha “ he e is no
God, and he e o e human beings we e no designed o any pa icula pu pose”. As he e appea s o be no p e-
o dained meaning o li e, humans “a e ee o choose how hey will li e.” Jean Paul Sa e’s amous ph ase
“‘Exis ence p ecedes essence’ would mean
ha we i s simply exis – ind ou sel es bo n in o a wo ld no o ou own choosing – and hen i is up o each
o us o de ine ou own iden i y o essen ial cha ac e is ics in he cou se o wha we do in li ing ou ou li es.”
Guignon (2013).
P agma ism
The philosophy is a philosophy o ac ion as ad oca ed by Pie ce (1839-1914), James (1842-1910). And Dewey
(1859-1952). Wha is ul illing as Honde ich (1995) exempli ies is he p ocess o es ablishing alidi y o
s anda ds o meaning, u h and alues in conside a ion o p ac ical e icacy o wha wo ks ou in p ac ice. In
his way, he eache should pu p emium on eaching ha p omo es an ac i e ole o s uden s, a he han
me ely impa ing knowledge and s uden s passi ely ecei ing i (Ozmon and C a e (2003). O ega (1999)
u he s esses ha a p agma ic eache is one who expec s he s uden s o ac in p oblema ic si ua ions wi h
philosophical pe suasions, and c ea es an en i onmen ha encou ages he s uden s o c ea e knowledge and use
i wi h conscious accoun abili y.
P agma ism s a es ha ac i i y lies a he cen e o educa i e p ocess as educa ion is a con inuous p ocess. I
wo ks on he p inciple o democ acy. I s a es ha educa ion helps indi iduals o mee human needs. Thus,
p agma ic means he quali y o dealing wi h he p oblem in a sensible way ha sui s he condi ions ha eally
exis s, a he han ollowing a ixed heo ies, ideas o ules. P agma ism is an educa ional philosophy ha says
educa ion should be eaching s uden s he hings ha a e p ac ical o li e and encou ages hem o g ow in o
be e people. Many amous educa o s including John Dewey, William James we e p agma is s, and hey belie e
in he idea o p ac ical lea ning i.e. educa ion should apply o he eal wo ld. So p agma ism in educa ion is
p epa a ion o li e. P agma ism makes a man socially e icien . They belie e ha he child en should no be
asked o wo k acco ding o p ede e mined goals. They should a he de e mine hei goals acco ding o hei
needs and in e es s. P agma ism is based on he psychology o indi idual di e ences. P agma is s wan
educa ion acco ding o ap i udes and abili ies o he indi idual. E e y indi idual mus be espec ed and
educa ion should be planned o ca e his inclina ions and capaci ies.
Acco ding o p agma ism, he heo y and p ac ice o educa ion is based on wo main p inciples, namely (i)
Educa ion should ha e a social unc ion and (ii) Educa ion should p o ide eal li e. Wi h p agma ism, educa ion
is no he dynamic side o philosophy as ad oca ed by he idealis s. I is he philosophy which eme ges om an
educa ional p ac ice. E e y indi idual has a social sel and he can be bes de eloped in and h ough socie y.
Thus, we can conclude by saying ha ha P agma ism has b ough democ acy in educa ion. The s uden s lea n
he echnique o managing hei own esponsibili ies which would p epa e hem o ace he di e en challenges
o eal li e. I makes a man socially e icien i.e. he can de e mine his goals acco ding o his needs and in e es s.
Fu he , p agma ism ega ds eache as a helpe , guide and philosophe . The chie unc ion o a p agma ic
eache is o sugges p oblems o his pupil and o s imula e hem o ind by hemsel es he solu ion which will
wo k. The eache mus p o ide oppo uni ies o he na u al de elopmen o inna e quali ies i he child en. His
main ask is o sugges p oblem o his s uden /pupils and o guide hem o ind ou he solu ions. As Bu le
(1969) elucida es, a p agma ic educa o should no only be a decision-make bu also an educa o in ol ed in
o al change in he con ex o educa ion, a guide o he lea ne s, plans lea ning ac i i ies in acco dance o
mul iple in elligence, bo h an educa o and pa en , and one who espec s he eedom o he lea ne s.
This s udy would like o ind ou how he eache s ca ied ou hei eaching unc ion amids he challenge o
pandemic in he con ex o he philosophies o idealism and ealism ( he ancien o adi ional philosophies ha
