The purpose of teaching is to transfer knowledge to the student and if the student leaves that teacher s class with the same knowledge that the student entered the class with, the student did not learn and the teacher s purpose was worthless. It is imperative that the students know that subjects such as reading and math are essential for all types of work environments and for social interaction. The student should know that knowledge and understanding of these subjects will benefit them in everyday activities. It is the teacher s responsibility to make sure that this knowledge is embedded in the student. I somewhat agree with all four branches of philosophy.
Metaphysics raise many interesting points.
They should know that the real them is not based on material things, but that the real them is what is within their minds. As far as Epistemology, I agree that sometimes thought should be driven by divine revelation. Axiology is effective because it teaches right from wrong and good from bad. Logic is where the brain does most of the work. Deductive and inductive reasoning, from my experience, are both very effective ways to learn and reason, in different situations, depending on the individual s learning style.
