The module considers a range of epistemological (knowing) and ontological (being) theories and their connection to various educational situations such a compulsory formal schooling, informal settings, and higher education. We will come to recognise that adoption of one or other theoretical stance brings with it ethical commitments and explore what this might mean for the way education, broadly understood, is undertaken in the contemporary world.听

Module Aims:听

Upon successfully completing the module students are expected to have gained knowledge of multiple currents in the philosophy of education alongside major theories from general philosophy. In so doing they will have developed and honed their philosophical discursive and writing skills. Both forms of analysis will pay dividends across their other modules as well as setting them up well for any career that demands precise exposition and discerning evaluation.
