Making Sense of Education: An Introduction to the Philosophy and Theory of Education and Teaching

Autor David Carr
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 sep 2002
Making Sense of Education provides a contemporary introduction to the key issues in educational philosophy and theory. Exploring major past and present conceptions of education, teaching and learning, this book makes philosophy of education relevant to the professional practice of teachers and student teachers, as well of interest to those studying education as an academic subject.
The book is divided into three parts:
  • education, teaching and professional practice: issues concerning education, the role of the teacher, the relationship of educational theory to practice and the wider moral dimensions of pedagogy
  • learning, knowledge and curriculum: issues concerning behaviourist and cognitive theories of learning, knowledge and meaning, curriculum aims and content and evaluation and assessment
  • schooling, society and culture: issues of the wider social and political context of education concerning liberalism and communitarianism, justice and equality, differentiation, authority and discipline.
This timely and up-to-date introduction assists all those studying and/or working in education to appreciate the main philosophical sources of and influences on present day thinking about education, teaching and learning

Recenzii

'As Carr says, without responsible professional reflection there is not much hope, either for teaching or democracy. But teachers already committed to such reflection will find real value in what he says and in his conclusions. And there's an excellent glossary.' - Michael Duffy, TES
'A tour de force of analytic discrimination, it is testimony to the necessity for plain prose and careful argument in educational discourse.' - Theory and Research in Education

'I would recommend this book for any Masters programme in Education. It provides an overview and useful starting point for further, more in-depth study. It is, perhaps, of particular use to non-philosophers as it gives an insight to the complexity and influence of the discipline in education throughout the centuries.' - Chris Smith, Escalate

'This book grew on me as I waded into its deeper waters ... This is a substantial work offering a rich resource particularly for the more advanced student and represents a very useful addition to the field.' - Andrew Davis, British Journal of Educational Studies
'Ultimately this book is quite unique and is a worthy addition to any university bookshelf. It should be a key text for Initial Teacher Education.' - John Dakers, Scottish Educational Review

Descriere

David Carr's new text for undergraduates and postgraduates of the philosophy of education seeks to enhance and expand - and in some cases argue against - the discussions arising from the post-war revolution in the subject.
