Question:
Gutek focuses on the ancient philosophers Confucius and Plato. They have some similarities, such as a focus on knowing what is right and doing it, and educating leaders to fulfill their positions in society. However, they also have major differences, such as Plato’s focus on homogeneous ability grouping and his belief in an intellectual hierarchy, versus Confucius’ belief in a moral hierarchy. Given that these philosophers lived thousands of years ago, do you think their beliefs on education still have any relevance in today’s society, and why or why not? Do we see any influence of Confucius or Plato in our education system, and should we?
