Essential reading for anyone who seeks to prepare active citizens
for the twenty-first century, this long-awaited book considers
Philosophical Inquiry, an empowering teaching method that can lead
to significant improvements in confidence and articulacy, and
produce positive effects in other school activities and in
interactions in the wider world. Readers are guided through the
creation of a Community of Philosophical Inquiry (CoPI) in the
kindergarten, the classrooms of primary and secondary schools, the
community centre and beyond, with practical ideas to make CoPI
work. With examples ranging from five year old children to
underachieving teenagers, and even senior citizens, the book shows
how participation in a CoPI develops: the skills of reasoning,
critical and creative thinking concept formation and judgment the
virtues of intellectual honesty and bravery. Including chapters on
the theory and development of Philosophical Inquiry, the creation
of a community, and using CoPI with groups of different ages, this
book forms essential reading for teachers, professionals and
community workers.
