Concept
assumptions made about education and its end, its aims and purposes; and the assumptions and the assumptions
made about the nature of man.
Aims and purposes in education: An aim is a logical prerequisite of a practical theory.A practical theory consists simply of an
argument providing recommendations for achieving some end thought desirable.
Assumptions about human nature: A general theory of education begins, logically, with an assumption about an end, the notion
of an educated man.
Educational Aims: The most important assumption made in a general theory of education is the assumption about
the end to be achieved, the aim.This is a commitment to value and a logical prerequisite of
there being a theory at all.All practical theories, limited or general, must begin with some
notion of a desirable end to be attained.
Two approaches to general theory of education: the approach to educational theory by outlining two major assumptions
which have been made about human nature, assumptions which differ radically in
their emphasis and which, when adopted, have given radically different directions to educational
practice.
