Abstract

Few fields of study have generated as much research as education, with such a paucity of results. 1 Current critic isms of the education system suggest a slowness in responding to societal change, quite possibly resulting from a reluctance or even an inability to readily apply current theory to practice. The tendency has been to blame the teachers for a lack of professional maturity in keeping a breat and applying theory to the classroom. If such accusations are being made then perhaps the teachers should be permitted to respond. And so they do in this paper.
