Three Principles for a New Progressivism.
Silcock, Peter
Oxford Review of Education, v22 n2 p199-216 Jun 1996
Proposes three principles for a new progressivism. These establish the nature of individualism in education, the need to empower individuals through education, and the economy of means by which this can be achieved through progressivist methodology. Assumes a constructivist rather than a social-constructivist model of human development. (MJP)
