Correct Answer - Option 2 : Knowledge is generated through direct experience and collaboration.

Progressive education advocates that young learners should be given the freedom to learn according to their preferences and likes. 

On this basis progress in education is represented by those activities or undertakings or changes that are harmonious with and lead to eternal verities and ultimate values and as a practical matter, preparation for living, the essential aspects of it.

  • Based on the belief that education should primarily serve the needs of children and focus on understanding, direct action and experience rather than rote knowledge and memorization.
  • A free and democratic atmosphere should be provided in the classroom for the proper development of an individual. 
  • Democratic climate provides the child gets maximum opportunities for interaction with other children (i.e, collaboration) in the class, with the teacher and with a variety of teaching-learning material. 
  • A democratic atmosphere in the class encourages the students to actively participate in the learning process.
  • In the democratic approach, peer tutors require some orientation to provide positive feedback to other students. 

Thus from above-mentioned points, it is clear that in progressive education, knowledge is generated through direct experience and collaboration.
