TYLER AND DEWEY'S IDEAS

1. Differences

   • Tyler
     • Said the curriculum design depends on three sources such as the students, the society, and the content requirements.
     • Education used a teaching system based on a Rational Method.
     • The institutional philosophy was so important to develop educational objectives.
     • The educational objectives derived from systematic studies about students.
   • Dewey
     • He focused that learners must be active participants in an ever-changing world.
     • Traditional learning occurred in a listening environment.
     • The curriculum should be built so that the student learns through experiences.
     • He emphasized that humans are social beings who are educated individually, and the society is the connection of individuals.

2. Similarities

   • Like Dewey, Tyler places the learning of the student into the teacher’s hands.
   • Both Dewey and Tyler take contemporary life into account when developing their proposal for the curriculum.
   • Both believe that it is necessary to focus their curriculum development efforts on students.
   • They mentioned the importance of having qualified people to carry out educational tasks
   • Scholars in modernity continue to theorize how and what creates learning in the most fluid possible for them.

3. RALPH TYLER

   • Tyler says that everyone who has to design a curriculum will have to go first to three sources:
     • *The society
       • Four basic questions must be answered to develop a successful curriculum.
         • 1.- Objectives
         • 2.- Activities.
         • 3.- Didactic resources
         • 4.- Evaluation
     • *The students
     • *The content requirements

   • His most important work is Basic Principles of Curriculum and Instruction (1949).

4. JOHN DEWEY

   • He was against of what he called "the viewer's knowledge theory."
   • He intended to formulate new pedagogical proposals in opposition to the traditional school
   • The practice itself Dewey's methodological the proposal consists of 5 phases:
     • 1. Consideration of some actual and real experience of the child.
     • 2. Identification of a problem or difficulty raised from that experience.
     • 3. Inspection of available data, as well as search for viable solutions.
     • 4. Formulation of the solution hypothesis.
     • 5. Verification of the hypothesis by the action.
