    This document discusses and compares four educational philosophies: critical pedagogy, Montessori, progressivism, and perennialism. It outlines the key implications and strengths of each philosophy for educational practice. Critical pedagogy focuses on improving critical thinking skills, Montessori emphasizes self-directed and hands-on learning, progressivism values individual growth and change, and perennialism centers on teaching methods that promote individual progress. While each philosophy has benefits, they also have limitations such as not accounting for learner diversity or focusing too much on abstract concepts over core knowledge.
