john Locke was one of the first to popularize the idea that children's begin as a blank slate and their personalities and moral compasses are not inborn but formed through their experiences. His concept that the 'associations of ideas' introduced to a young child shape the foundation of the self became extremely significant in 18th century educational theory. Suddenly what children were taught at a young age seemed important.
