ABSTRACT OF GRADUATE STUDENT RESEARCH Dissertation Andrews University School of Education Title: THE PERUVIAN EDUCATIONAL REFORM OF 1968-1980 AND SEVENIH-DAY ADVENTIST EDUCATION AT INCA UNION COLLEGE: A STUDY IN MODELS Name of researcher: Luis Alberto del Pozo Name and degree of faculty chair: John B. Youngberg, Ed.D. Date c o mpleted: August 1988. Problem The purpose of this study was to carpare and contrast two distinct educational models: (1) Peruvian educational reform, which affected both public and private education throughout the country, and (2) the Seventh-day Adventist educational system as reprt rented by Inca union College. This research was limited geographically to Peru and chronologically to the educational reform of 1968 and 1980. After the historical background was established, emphasis was placed on the Peruvian educational reform as a model of innovation as compared with the Seventh-day Adventist model at Inca Union College.

Major sources included documents regarding the history and educational philosophy of Peruvian educational reform and Inca Union College. Minutes of the institution, periodicals, and other primary sources were used. Conclusions Both models had similar outward appearances, especially since they promulgated the need for a holistic education which assumes that people need formation in physical, intellectual, spiritual, vocational, and social aspects; nevertheless, the study of their philosophical foundations demonstrates different meanings for their programs and activities. In conclusion, it may be stated that: 1. The Peruvian educational reform identifies itself with humanism and is anthropocentric, while the Seventh-day Adventist system classifies itself as theccentric. From this observation derive the other conclusions in the various philosophical categories. 2. While the Peruvian system views social change as its ultimate goal, Seventh-day Adventist education seeks man's redemption in both the present and eschatological dimensions. 3. The Peruvian system accepts conscientization as an epistesological means which stimulates creative and critical thinking about social reality. Seventh-day Adventist education amplifies social reality to include the relationship with the rest of humanity and with God. 4. The Peruvian reform recognizes education for work as the source of personal and societal well-being. Adventist education r Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

Both systems promulgate the need for a holistic education but with different meanings. 6. Under the educational reform, religious education received unprecedented support and freedom through participation of all religious confessions in the National Religious Education Council.

DEDICATION To my family: Esther, my wife, the first wanan in the history of Inca Union College to receive a Bachelor of Arts degree in Religion (Summer 1973); Samuel and Benjamin, my sons, who graduated with Bachelor of Arts degrees in Theology from Inca Union College (Sumner 1986), now students at Andrews University; and Grelte Ester, my daughter, who is a member of the first class of Inca Union University (1983-1988). All of them are the fruit of Seventh-day Adventist education in Peru; they are dedicated to the service of God and of humanity. in Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.
