It is a philosophy of education that focuses
on using education to eliminate social
inequities.
It is student-centered philosophy that is
currently relevant and beneficial.
Prepares students for a future that is ever
changing.
Social Reconstructionism
Its focuses on educating students about
issues going on in their society.
It inform students, give them the skills they
need to be able to take action with what they
learn, encourage them to improve society
and guide them in improving society.
Social Reconstructionism
Reconstructionist believe that students learn
more, remember it longer, and apply it to
new situations better if they learn through
experience, rather than trough being told
something.
Purpose of Education
Its main purpose is to reconstruct the society.
George Counts proposed schools reform society, an
idea that spread like a wildfire when his book Dare
the Schools Build a New Social Order was written in
1932, and still has not burn out.
Education was the means of preparing people for
creating new social order.
Purpose of Education
 Sadket and Zittleman (2010) explain that the purpose of
education is to encourage “schools, teachers, and students
to focus their studies and energies on alleviating pervasive
social inequities and, as the name implies reconstruct
soci0ety into a new and more just social order.
 Learning and all efforts that follow should be for the
common goal of eliminating injustices in the society. Since
“racism, sexism, global warming, and environmental
pollution, homeliness, poverty, substance abuse,
homophobia, AIDS, and violence are rooted in
misinformation and thrive in ignorance. The school is an
ideal place to begin alleviating this problems.
Purpose of Education
Theodore Brameld, the founder of Social
Reconstructionism, believes that public education
system that perceived behavioral sciences can bring
about fundamental changes in the social economic
structure of society.
Brameld founded social reconstructionism as a response
to the realities of World War II, he recognized the
potential for either human annihilation through
technology and human cruelty or the capacity to create
a beneficent society using technology and human
compassion.
Purpose of Education
 Paulo Freire, reject the social Darwinism and introduced
Praxis Doctrine.
 Freire accused schools in endorsing social Darwinism, in
other words, students who are talented or come from rich
and powerful families rise to the top of their classes and
undeserving students fall to the bottom both socially and
economically. He introduces one of his own, Praxis, which
means self-improvement are attainable and injustices in
society don’t not exist.
 He believes that educations is to reconstruct society for the
better, which proves the praxis doctrine to be true and social
Darwinism to be false.
Social reconstructionism focused on the
discrepancies between wealth and poverty in
society, the social and economic reforms
needed and the possibilities of schools who,
with the help of other cultural agencies, could
become agents of reconstruction and reform
in the society.
The Curriculum
The curriculum should be used to improve students
abilities to think critically about problems in the
society. Students are presented with social
challenges and problems they should feel a desire
to want things to be different.
The lessons allows the learners to freely discuss
about issues in the past and in the present, that
automatically cause the students to formulate their
own opinions towards controversial or important
topics.
The Curriculum
The curriculum incorporate lessons that require
students to take action and they are learning on
how to become responsible citizens and how to
take matters on their own hands.
The curriculum should inform students, stir
emotions within them, shed light upon social
inequities, improve student abilities to think critically
and charge students to take action.
The Curriculum
Reconstructionist do not believe is
predetermined curriculum. They would use
the subject matter from any or all disciplines
when needed to solve problems.
Assessment
 Learners are required to express their opinions about certain
problems within society eloquently and adamantly.
 Assessment are designed with the tent to improve students
communications skills through testing students abilities to
write essays, provide short answers to questions, thoroughly
answering discussion questions and being able to explain
why answers are correct or why they believe what they do.
 Students also make research as an assessment rather that
standardized test. They are evaluate subjectively on the basis
of their ability as a social activist rather that give written
examinations.
Role of the Teacher
Teachers are facilitators of learners. Its their duty to
provide the learners lessons that bot intellectually inform
and emotionally affect students about the inequities that
surround them.
Teachers also create a democratic environments so that
lessons and topic maybe discussed, debated, and
students voices may be heard. In order for students to
end up changing their society, they have to believe that
their voice matters and they can make difference in the
world.
Role of the Teacher
Teachers main role is being the resource person
or a research project director that guides the
students learning rather than being a dispenser
of knowledge. Teachers carries on a dialogue with
students, helping them identify problems, frame
hypothesis, find data, draw appropriate
conclusions and select efficacious courses of
actions.
The Method of Instruction
It is student-centered philosophy, means “less
authoritarian, less concerned with the past and
training of mind, more focused on individual needs,
contemporary relevance and preparing students for a
changing future”.
Teacher spend less time on lecturing and more time
allowing students to work together in groups,

another.
