Importance of physical environment is given in ....................... .

  • A.Realism
  • B.Naturalism
  • C.Spiritualism
  • D.Idealism

Answer: B

The importance of the physical environment is stressed in Naturalism.

Naturalism holds that nature is the whole of reality and that education should follow nature. Rousseau, its best-known educational exponent, wanted the child Emile educated in the countryside, learning from things and from the natural consequences of his actions rather than from books. The physical environment is thus the child's chief teacher.

Realism also values the material world, but as an object of knowledge rather than as the setting of education. Idealism and spiritualism emphasise mind, ideas and the spirit over the physical surroundings.
