DAR2014 “Wujud dua pemikiran yang saling bertentangan dan sekali gus mempengaruhi penggubal-penggubal dasar mengenai matlamat pendidikan. Pemikiran pertama ialah pendidikan untuk memenuhi objektif utilitarian, manakala pemikiran kedua ialah pendidikan untuk pembangunan manusia dan perkembangan ilmu. Polemik antara dua aliran pemikiran tersebut menjadi semakin ketara dengan wujudnya fenomena pengangguran di kalangan siswazah di negara ini. Fenomena ini telah dimanfaatkan oleh aliran utilitarian untuk memperteguhkan pandangan mereka bahawa matlamat pendidikan tinggi ialah menyediakan teknokrat, birokrat, saintis, ahli ekonomi dan ahli profesional yang berkepakaran tinggi, yang sangat diperlukan oleh pasaran pekerjaan, yang berkeupayaan untuk menyumbang kepada pembangunan ekonomi dan pembangunan perindustrian dan perdangangan negara.

DAR2014 …the dark side of today’s education Today the human population will increase by 250,000. And today we will add 2,700 tons of chlorofluorocarbons to the atmosphere and 15 million tons of carbon. Tonight the Earth will be a little hotter, its waters more acidic, and the fabric of life more threadbare..... It is worth noting that this is not the work of ignorant people. It is, rather, largely the result of work by people with BAs, BSs, LLBs, MBAs, and PhDs.” David Orr (1991) What Is Education For? Six myths about the foundations of modern education, and six new principles to replace them _

DAR2014 What was wrong with their education? (Orr, 1991) In Wiesel's words (Global Forum, Moscow, 1990): "It [education] emphasized theories instead of values, concepts rather than human beings, abstraction rather than consciousness, answers instead of questions, ideology and efficiency rather than conscience.“ My point is simply that education is no guarantee of decency, prudence, or wisdom. More of the same kind of education will only compound our problems. This is not an argument for ignorance, but rather a statement that the worth of education must now be measured against the standards of decency and human survival - the issues now looming so large before us in the decade of the 1990s and beyond. It is not education that will save us, but education of a certain kind.

DAR2014 Namun, aliran kemanusiaan tetap berpendirian bahawa pendidikan tiada hubungkaitnya dengan membekalkan sesuatu kemahiran khusus dalam sesuatu bidang pekerjaan, atau menyediakan pekerja industri atau melayani tuntutan-tuntutan ekonomi. Matlamat pendidikan mengikut aliran kemanusiaan ialah menghasilkan manusia yang seimbang perkembangan fizikal, intelektual, sosial, emosi dan kerohaniannya, manusia yang berterusan meneroka perkembangan ilmu, manusia yang sarat dengan nilai-nilai murni, dan manusia yang mendukung perpaduan dan integrasi nasional. Jawatankuasa berpendapat bahawa kedua-kedua aliran pemikiran adalah relevan dan penting, dan dengan itu perlu disepadukan dalam gerakan meningkatkan kualiti pendidikan tinggi negara”.
