Use the following information for the question(s) that follow.
Vera Rodriguez and Antonio Rivera, two middle school teachers, are involved in a discussion. "This 'feel good' stuff has set education back 30 years," Claire asserts. "We know that people are motivated by the extent to which they expect to succeed on challenging tasks. So, what we should be doing is challenging them and helping them to succeed. There is information everyone needs in order to function in today's world, and we need to hold kids' feet to the fire to be sure that they learn it."
"That's all well and good," Antonio responds, "but how do you know what knowledge is the most important for them to learn? Who is going to decide what is most important? I think kids need to learn how to get information on their own. Then, they'll be better equipped to function in today's world."
Which of the following statements best describes Claire's comments?
◦ Her comments include explanations based on theory, but not statements that reflect philosophy.
◦ Her comments include statements that reflect philosophy, but not explanations that are based on theory.
