The liberals, or progressives, tend to be interested in the development of the whole child, not merely in training the child’s mind or in preparing the child for adult life in a remote future Then emphasize rich, meaningful school living in the present, and they view subject matter as a resource for total human development rather than as a goal itself They not downgrade content but believe it should be acquired not for its own sake but as a means of fostering thought and inquiry
