Identify advantages and disadvantages of respecting children's natural needs and interests, as proposed by Comenius

What will be an ideal response?


ANSWER: Advantages should center on the ability of children to explore their interests with few limitations and on the idea that learning may be more efficient when the individual child is ready to learn a particular skill or concept. Disadvantages should center on concerns about the amount of learning that takes place when the emphasis is not to rush or pressure children and on the need to include, in the curriculum, certain content that the children themselves might not identify.
