A large place is given to those studies whose values have been validated by all men. The teacher of Christian Education must know the truth. He or she must determine what is the foundation of the curriculum in the school and make sure it gets taught to the student. If there is time for electives, the teacher must be well-rounded enough to be able to assist each student in his or her particular interest. Time as a viewpoint This viewpoint says that time is a basic trait of reality.
Time is past, future, and present.
Time not only affects learning now, but learning has the quality it now has because of the circumstances which conditioned it by times past. History, therefore, is an inevitable ontological dimension of the educational process. This is true of past time, and equally true of future time. Time produces change and with change come novelties. Education must prepare students for their contemporary life.
