Philosophy of Education

So I just took a self-assessment to find what education philosophy best describes me. It was very clear that the type of philosophy that best fits me are the ones on the Post Modernity, Contemporary and Liberal, and Non-Authoritarian side of the spectrum. Humanism and Progressivism both scored the highest with a tie. Both philosophies focus on the individual and freedom. The student is the focus and are involved in the learning process. Education focuses on the student and interaction with others including active learning and group decisions. I feel that these philosophies best describe how I feel about how a classroom should run. I feel that the textbook style of learning is outdated and that students today are different from previous years. Today students are more aware of technology and are interested in new ways of learning. I feel that these days using textbooks is not a good way to keep students interested in the lesson. The students need to be more involved in learning so they will keep focus on what is being taught. By engaging in group activities and active learning the student becomes part of the lesson and has a better chance to retain information. I feel that Humanism and Progressivism best describes my philosophies of learning.
