According to ........................ "Individuality is of no value and personality a meaningless term apart from social environment in which they are developed and made manifest".

  • A.Auguste Comte
  • B.Ross
  • C.Ottaway
  • D.Clarke

Answer: B

The statement is from Ross.

James S. Ross, in Groundwork of Educational Theory, used it to argue for the social aim of education: individuality and personality have meaning only in a social setting, so education must develop the individual through and for society, not in isolation from it.

Auguste Comte founded sociology but did not write on this aim of education. A. K. C. Ottaway wrote Education and Society, a sociology of education, and Sir Fred Clarke wrote Freedom in the Educative Society; both are associated with the social view of education, but the sentence quoted is Ross's.
