Views education as having limited
relevance to professional education
because of its focus on the basics such

ESSENTIALISM
Rooted in idealism, it contends that both
body and mind are important in education and as
such, core knowledge and skills are essential to a
successful society because those requisite abilities
allow the individual to be economically productive
members of society (Gaudelli, 2002: 198).
