Progressivism in Education | Foundations, Key Thinkers, Principles, Dominance & Criticisms

This lecture provides a systematic and conceptually rigorous analysis of Progressivism as a major educational philosophy, tracing its intellectual origins, philosophical foundations, historical development, and contemporary relevance. The video begins by examining the intellectual and philosophical foundations of progressivism, highlighting its roots in pragmatism, democracy, experimentalism, and child-centered educational thought. The lecture then discusses the key figures of progressivism, with particular emphasis on thinkers such as John Dewey, whose ideas on experience, inquiry, democracy, and reflective thinking shaped progressive educational theory and practice. Other influential contributors and reformers associated with progressive education are also discussed in context. A major section focuses on the period of dominance of progressivism, explaining the social, political, and educational conditions that facilitated its widespread acceptance, followed by an analysis of the factors leading to its decline. The lecture critically examines the condemnations and criticisms of progressivism, including concerns about academic rigor, discipline, curriculum structure, and relativism. The video further outlines the core principles of progressive education, such as learner-centeredness, learning by doing, experiential learning, problem-solving, democratic classrooms, social relevance of curriculum, and the integration of school and community life. These principles are discussed in relation to contemporary educational challenges and reforms. This video is particularly useful for B.Ed., M.Ed., Ph.D. coursework, UGC NET/SET (Education), teacher education programs, and competitive examinations, offering both conceptual clarity and critical insight into progressive educational philosophy. #Progressivism #ProgressiveEducation #PhilosophyOfEducation #EducationalPhilosophy #JohnDewey #Pragmatism #LearnerCenteredEducation #ExperientialLearning #LearningByDoing #DemocraticEducation #EducationalReform #FoundationsOfProgressivism #KeyFiguresInEducation #CriticismOfProgressivism #EducationalThought #TeacherEducation #HigherEducation #UGCNET #UGCNETEducation #BEd #MEd #PhDCoursework
