Lesson 1: Learning with Traditional Technology


Traditional education or back-to-basics refers to long-established customs found in schools that society has traditionally deemed appropriate. . Some forms of education reform promote the adoption of progressive education practices, a more holistic approach which focuses on individual students' needs and self-expression.

Depending on the context, the opposite of traditional education may be progressive education, modern education (the education approaches based on developmental psychology), or alternative education.

As beneficiaries of this scheme, which educational progressivist John Dewey described as being "imposed from above and from outside", the students are expected to docilely and obediently receive and believe these fixed answers. Teachers are the instruments by which this knowledge is communicated and these standards of behavior are enforced simple oral recitation

elements of coercion on traditional education:

· use of corporal punishment
· inculcating the dominant religion and language
· separating students according to gender, race, and social class, as well as teaching different subjects to girls and boys.
