Q.5 (a) Read the following paragraph and answer the questions that follow.
Philosophy of Education is a label applied to the study of the purpose, process,
nature and ideals of education. It can be considered a branch of both
philosophy and education. Education can be defined as the teaching and
learning of specific skills, and the imparting of knowledge, judgment and
wisdom, and is something broader than the societal institution of education
we often speak of.
Many educationalists consider it a weak and woolly field, too far removed
from the practical applications of the real world to be useful. But philosophers
dating back to Plato and the Ancient Greeks have given the area much thought
and emphasis, and there is little doubt that their work has helped shape the
practice of education over the millennia.
Plato is the earliest important educational thinker, and education is an
essential element in "The Republic" (his most important work on philosophy
and political theory, written around 360 B.C.). In it, he advocates some rather
extreme methods: removing children from their mothers' care and raising
them as wards of the state, and differentiating children suitable to the various
castes, the highest receiving the most education, so that they could act as
guardians of the city and care for the less able. He believed that education
should be holistic, including facts, skills, physical discipline, music and art.
Plato believed that talent and intelligence is not distributed genetically and
thus is be found in children born to all classes, although his proposed system
of selective public education for an educated minority of the population does
not really follow a democratic model.
Aristotle considered human nature, habit and reason to be equally important
forces to be cultivated in education, the ultimate aim of which should be to
produce good and virtuous citizens. He proposed that teachers lead their
students systematically, and that repetition be used as a key tool to develop
good habits, unlike Socrates' emphasis on questioning his listeners to bring
out their own ideas. He emphasized the balancing of the theoretical and
practical aspects of subjects taught, among which he explicitly mentions

Q.5 (a) Read the following paragraph and answer the questions that follow.
Philosophy of Education is a label applied to the study of the purpose, process,
nature and ideals of education. It can be considered a branch of both
philosophy and education. Education can be defined as the teaching and
learning of specific skills, and the imparting of knowledge, judgment and
wisdom, and is something broader than the societal institution of education
we often speak of.
Many educationalists consider it a weak and woolly field, too far removed
from the practical applications of the real world to be useful. But philosophers
dating back to Plato and the Ancient Greeks have given the area much thought
and emphasis, and there is little doubt that their work has helped shape the
practice of education over the millennia.
Plato is the earliest important educational thinker, and education is an
essential element in "The Republic" (his most important work on philosophy
and political theory, written around 360 B.C.). In it, he advocates some rather
extreme methods: removing children from their mothers' care and raising
them as wards of the state, and differentiating children suitable to the various
castes, the highest receiving the most education, so that they could act as
guardians of the city and care for the less able. He believed that education
should be holistic, including facts, skills, physical discipline, music and art.
Plato believed that talent and intelligence is not distributed genetically and
thus is be found in children born to all classes, although his proposed system
of selective public education for an educated minority of the population does
not really follow a democratic model.
Aristotle considered human nature, habit and reason to be equally important
forces to be cultivated in education, the ultimate aim of which should be to
produce good and virtuous citizens. He proposed that teachers lead their
students systematically, and that repetition be used as a key tool to develop
good habits, unlike Socrates' emphasis on questioning his listeners to bring
out their own ideas. He emphasized the balancing of the theoretical and
practical aspects of subjects taught, among which he explicitly mentions
03

reading, writing, mathematics, music, physical education, literature, history,
and a wide range of sciences, as well as play, which he also considered
important.
1. What is the difference between the approaches of Socrates and
Aristotle?
(a) Aristotle felt the need for repetition to develop good habits in students;
Socrates felt that students need to be constantly questioned
(b) Aristotle felt the need for rote-learning; Socrates emphasized on dialogic
learning
(c) There was no difference
(d) Aristotle emphasized on the importance of paying attention to human
nature; Socrates emphasized upon science
2. Why do educationalists consider philosophy a ?weak and woolly? field?
(a) It is not practically applicable
(b) Its theoretical concepts are easily understood
(c) It is irrelevant for education
(d) None of the above
3. Were Plato?s beliefs about education democratic?
(a) He believed that only the rich have the right to acquire education
(b) Yes
(c) He believed that only a select few are meant to attend schools
(d) He believed that all pupils are not talented.
(b) You are the office manager and want to remind everyone to clean up after
themselves in the lunchroom. There was recently an infestation of
cockroaches. The building has since been fumigated but you still require the
cooperation of staff to prevent a re-infestation. State the purpose of the memo,
your reason(s) for sending it and what actions taken.

(c) Write a letter to a dealer of Laptops for asking the price and availability of the
laptop of your desired features for bulk purchase.

Q.5 (a) Make a pr?cis in about 1/3 of the following passage.
It is physically impossible for a well-educated, intellectual, or brave man to
make money the chief object of his thoughts just as it is for him to make his
dinner the principal object of them. All healthy people like their dinners, but
their dinner is not the main object of their lives. So all healthy minded people
like making money ought to like it and enjoy the sensation of winning it; it is
03
6
something better than money. A good soldier, for instance, mainly wishes to
do his fighting well. He is glad of his pay ?very properly so and justly
grumbles when you keep him ten years without it ?till, his main mission of
life is to win battles, not to be paid for winning them. So of clergymen. The
clergyman's object is essentially baptize and preach not to be paid for
preaching. So of doctors. They like fees no doubt ?ought to like them; yet if
they are brave and well-educated the entire object to their lives is not fees.
They on the whole, desire to cure the sick; and if they are good doctors and
the choice were fairly to them, would rather cure their patient and lose their
fee than kill him and get it. And so with all the other brave and rightly trained
men: their work is first, their fee second ?very important always; but still
second.
(b) You are the Training Coordinator. You have been asked to make
arrangements for a half-day seminar at the Conference Centre. The seminar
is for 10 Departmental Heads from various departments. Write a memo to the
director of the Conference Centre for making arrangements for space, tables,
audio-visual equipment, and refreshments.
