Modern education is defective in that it fails to provide younger students with a splendid vision of, or outlook on, the future.
The root reason for this deficiency is that it is impossible to construct a national vision with the resources provided by modern culture.
Education must play a leading role in actively creating this type of vision. Consciousness of this theme is especially strong among the educational reconstructionists of America. In this essay I consider the place of vision and its creation in education, especially in history education. My viewpoint is that of a reconstructionist. History education directed toward providing students with vision starts from their desires as the buds which can unfold in vision. The students are then confronted, in connection with modern problems, with different types of vision and their possibilities as they are revealed by history and culture. They are then led to understand history in accord with the laws revealed in the historical problems they have been studying. This way of teaching can, then, contribute to the development of vision in the students.
