Education is for developing reflective thinking, hypothesising, problem solving, personal meaning, in the context of the learner’s broad culture. These abilities, and indeed, all skills, develop in collaborative activity with other people – teachers and other learners. They become internalised, personal, through imitation, “apprenticeship” and purposeful practice of them. Knowledge is important only when acquired and used for well understood purposes.
Active engagement, curiosity, intuition, imagination are important, as well as logical thought. Successful use of these complex skills provides great personal satisfaction and motivation to meet new challenges. Significant writers underpinning this view include John Dewey (1916, 1938), Lev Vygotsky (1962), Jerome Bruner (1960, 1966, 1996) and Robin Hodgkin (1970).
