In curriculum development the idealists..........................
Answer: C
Idealists attach a higher importance to humanities than physical and biological sciences.
For idealism the highest reality is mind and spirit, and the aim of education is the development of the self towards truth, beauty and goodness. The idealist curriculum therefore gives first place to the subjects that express human thought and spiritual values: religion, ethics, philosophy, literature, history and the arts. The sciences are included but ranked below them.
Advocating vocational subjects is characteristic of pragmatism and realism. Idealists do not give importance to literature only; they value all the humanities. Logical divisions of subject-matter are not the distinctive idealist position on curriculum.
