12. MANUEL QUEZON’S PHILOSOPHY OF PHILIPPINE
EDUCATION
Quezon’s philosophy of Philippine Education is
basically local or Philippine in orientation, a
reflection of the need of colonial people to
upgrade themselves
Intellectually
Morally
Economically trough education
14. EDUCATION FOR BETTER
CITIZENSHIP
The state is therefore duty bound to mould spirit
of the youth in patriotism and self sacrifice with
can be done through education.
Public or even private schools must constantly
instil in the minds and hearts of their students
their duty to defend the nation in time of war
and to be useful and law –abiding citizens in
time of peace.
15. EDUCATION FOR BETTER
CITIZENSHIP
free public primary education and citizenship
training for adults
develop their talents since the government could
create for them a large number of scholarships
“the true worth of a man is measured not only
by a diploma but by his proficiency in his chosen
line of work” - Quezon
16. EDUCATION FOR BETTER
CITIZENSHIP
Poor – should be satisfied with vocational
education.
Intellectually-gifted – should have ambition to
follow a college or universities.
For Quezon, the diploma is simply a stepping
stone towards various paths of progress.
Philippine soldiers should also be given
vocational training to make them economically
self-sufficient.
17. DUTIES OF CITIZENSHIP
A worthy citizen first learns his duties before
speaking his demands the citizen must be a
defender of its state and be a model of oneself be
abiding the law
The citizen and government works together to
maintain peace and order in the country
A women is not a slave and granted the right to
vote, for it was their duty also to choose a leader
that would lead their country well.
18. A NATIONAL SOUL
A nation’s soul was its language because a genuine
national pride is anchored on one’s native language.
The adoption of Tagalog as the basis for the
Philippine national language since it was the most
developed of all existing language in the country
and most widely spoken language in his time.
Tagalog, let subcultures understand each other
19. BUILDING THE FILIPINO
CHARACTER
“A nation is nothing more nor less than its
citzenry” Quezon
A nation strength is not wealth but the
happiness or welfare of the common man.
A nation is strong “when every citizen
recognizes the rights of his fellowmen, and in
turn makes in fellowmen recognize his own
rights”
20. EASY GOING PARASITISM
Filipino deserves personal gain, personal interest
and they don’t value perseverance and other
attitudes that would help them build the character
and to improve their selves.
Self Inefficiency (Quezon)
Filipinos rely on government, that the government
will give them everything, but not the Filipinos
didn’t realize that they must work for their self and
not to defend on government, work hard and be
dignified on what ever field of career you have.
21. NATIONAL SPIRITUAL
RECONSTRUCTION
To meet these societal weaknesses and remedy the
deterioration of the race, Quezon felt the need for
the national spiritual reconstruction.
Make a social code, a code for ethics, personal
conduct that should be adopted.
The code must be some kind of a written Bushido
that “can be explained in the schools, preached
from the pulpits, and taught in the streets and
plazas, and in the remotest corners of our land”
