Jasinski, Igor; Lewis, Tyson E. – Studies in Philosophy and Education, 2016
This paper reassesses a perennial concern of philosophy of education: the nature of the educational community and the role of the teacher in relation to such a community. As an entry point into this broader question, we turn to Philosophy for children (P4C), which has consistently emphasized the importance of community. Yet, not unlike pragmatist…

Wivestad, Stein M. – Studies in Philosophy and Education, 2013
Both in formal situations (as school teachers, football trainers, etc.) and in many, often unpredictable informal situations (both inside and outside institutions)--adults come close to children. Whether we intend it or not, we continually give them examples of what it is to live as a human being, and thereby we have a pedagogical responsibility.…

The overall aim of the article is to analyse how the universal right to education have been built, legitimized and used. And more specifically ask who is addressed by the universal right to education, and who is given access to rights and to education. The first part of the article focuses on the history of declarations, the notion of the…

Opdal, Paul Martin – Studies in Philosophy and Education, 2001
Distinguishes between curiosity, which is seen as a motive to do exploration within definite and generally accepted frames, and wonder, where doubt about the frames themselves is the underlying factor. Argues that educational institutions need to build on both notions, and that wonder often finds expression in philosophical pursuits. (Contains 16…

Johansson, Eva – Studies in Philosophy and Education, 2001
Analyzes morality as lived, and morality as rationality of thought in pre-school children. Argues that small children have a morality, but that it is lived rather than reflected upon. Highlights the importance of the ontological basis and its role in determining what becomes possible for a researcher to study. (Contains 12 references.) (NB)
