Philosophy of Education Paper
EDUC 326 Foundations of Education
University of Wisconsin- Stout
Marketing-Business Education
Spring 2013
Abstract
The main goal of a Marketing-Business teacher is to expand the business knowledge within the students you teach. This should be done by realistic marketing and business activities and experiences. Throughout this paper I explain how the roles of the teacher, education, and curriculum influence the outcome of the marketing business teachings, along with what the philosophies that I can relate to.
Introduction In this paper I will share my views on what education means in my eyes. I will talk about what I think each of the following categories mean to me, on the role of curriculum, education, and what it means to be a teacher. In the paper I also discuss the main philosophies of education and break down the styles of teaching and show what ways best describe me as an educator.
Role of Education
As we all know education is a very serious topic in the United States today and plays an extremely large part in society. Education serves as a means of kids to gain a better perspective on the ever changing world around them. Schools should be a safe environment open to any child. Education teaches kids many different things that will help them become successful in whatever path they choose, either to higher education or entering into the work place. Schools offer many basic life skills aside from just simple reading and arithmetic, such as learning how to communicate and work with others around them. I believe the overall definition of the role of education is best said by United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization, “Education should be a means to empower children and adults alike to become active participants in the transformation of their societies” (UNESCO).
What Should be Taught
Teaching marketing and business in the classroom is a little bit different than most other education areas.
