Introduced as a twentieth-century pedagogical approach, progressive education is designed to develop students in a much more different way than other styles. The term "progressive education" was used to describe ideas and practices intended to create a more effective student for the democratic society of which he was a part. Although there are numerous differences in style and emphasis among progressive educators, they share the idea that democracy means capable and active participation of all citizens in social, political and economic aspects. In class, we discussed how a "progressive" education can help create a tolerance for diversity, meaning that each individual can be recognized for their own abilities, ideas, interests and cultural identity, and also develop a more critical attitude , socially skills involved in the process. By understanding this idea, such a person can effectively understand and even contribute to the affairs of their community in a collaborative effort to achieve a common good.
