Why Aren't Philosophers and Educators Speaking to Each Other? Some Reasons for Hope.
Ellett, Frederick S., Jr.
Educational Theory, v52 n3 p315-25 Sum 2002
Responds to Arcilla's article, "Why Aren't Philosophers and Educators Speaking to One Another?" noting complexities that complicate the answer and suggesting that they are indeed communicating if one accepts a broader definition of philosophers and educators. The essay asserts that little educational research and theory has had much influence on the activities and concerns of K-12 educators, concluding that there are many salient educational problems needing philosophical elucidation.
