IDEAS IN EDUCATION Confucius' view of education is based on the conviction that “Man is born with uprightness” . Even immoral persons have an upright essence. So, Confucius said, “By nature men are alike.” He honored and respected all human beings, and for him all men were able to learn about the good and to do good. Therefore, “In education there should be no class distinction.” True education , according to Confucianism, is self- education . “ Self- illuminative sincerity is called nature. The self- illumination of sincerity is called education .”

EDUCATIONAL THEORY THEORY OF LEARNING What is learning? How are skills and knowledge acquired? THEORY OF TRANSMISSION Who is to teach? By what methods? What will the curriculum be? THEORY OF SOCIETY What is society? What institutions are involved in the educational process?
