Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: Answers will vary, of course, depending on what the student's experience happened to be. The key to evaluating the answer is to assess whether the rationale for the selection of the philosophy or theory is sound.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: Assimilationist education is characterized in Chapter 5 as the attempts of the misguided reformers to civilize Native Americans (and other ethnic minority groups) and to assimilate them into white (Anglo-Saxon) society by instilling in them white values. Various examples of assimilationist efforts can be mentioned.
