" Educators should believe that all students can learn and should set and support realistic expectations for student success . These expectations should be communicated in positive ways . " ( GCU Learner Goals ) These words are only meaningful if they are real and backed up by behavior. We must trust in the potential of students to excel in school. I am still growing, just like

Assessment Description
In “Work or Love? A Christian Evaluation of John Dewey’s Views on the Purpose of Schooling,"
Cimpean states:
Dewey rejects the Christian purpose of schooling, which is to serve and love God. When evaluated from a Christian perspective, Dewey’s progressivism falls short due to its refusal to promote the Christian ideal of serving and loving God. Dewey’s purpose for schooling is to promote a democratic state.
In your opinion, what should be the purpose of schooling?
There are four purposes of schooling which are intellectual purposes, political and civic
purposes, economic purposes, and social purposes. Among them, I think one of the four
The purpose of schooling that appeals most to me as a potential educator is intellectual purposes.
Intellectual development in school is important in school because intellectual pursuit leads to
personal enlightenment. It helps the students to know how to think, understand, and reason.
Intellectual Purposes
