Philosophy in Education: Questioning and Dialog in K-12 Classrooms
is a textbook in the fields of pre-college philosophy and
philosophy of education, intended for philosophers and philosophy
students, K-12 classroom teachers, administrators and educators,
policymakers, and pre-college practitioners of all kinds. The book
offers a wealth of practical resources for use in elementary,
middle school, and high school classrooms, as well as consideration
of many of the broader educational, social, and political topics in
the field, including the educational value of pre-college
philosophy, the philosophies of education that inform this
philosophical practice, and the relevance of pre-college philosophy
for pressing issues in contemporary education (such as education
reform, child development, and prejudice and privilege in
classrooms). The book includes sections on: the expansion of
philosophy beyond higher education to pre-college populations; the
importance of wondering, questioning and reflection in K-12
education; the ways that philosophy is uniquely suited to help
students cultivate critical reasoning and independent thinking
capacities; how to develop classroom communities of philosophical
inquiry and their potentially transformative impact on students;
the cultivation of philosophical sensitivity and positive identity
formation in childhood; strategies for recognizing and diminishing
the impact of social inequalities in classrooms; and the
relationship between introducing philosophy in schools and
education reform.
