摘要:This paper attempts to explicate the importance of choice in the business of education. Using philosophical method, the paper critically analyzes the concept of choice in the existentialist's philosophy with particular reference to some shortcomings of the school of thought. Apart from the limitations inherent in the existential concept of choice, it is the writer's position that a system of education based on the existentialist concept of choice will make the learners realize that choice makes them the creator of their own world; bring in the learner the need for prior deliberation so as to make meaningful decisions; encourage the spirit of self-reliance; recognize the worth and dignity of the learners; enable the learners apply critical thinking rather than bow before the pronouncement of an authority amongst others
