First published in 1982, Means and Ends in Education explores the
contrasts between approaches to teaching where teaching is simply a
means to some other end; approaches in which the end determines the
means; and approaches in which means and ends are integrated and
education serves an intrinsic purpose. The book considers the
concept of education and evaluates different processes and
techniques of teaching and learning. Divided into three parts, it
covers instrumentalist approaches, learner-oriented approaches, and
liberal approaches to education. It puts forward differing views as
to what the term 'education' means to different professions and in
different contexts, and how different approaches result in a very
different experience for the recipient. It also discusses the
extent to which an evaluation of methods of education and an
evaluation of the aims of education are linked. Means and Ends in
Education will appeal to those with an interest in the philosophy
of education.
