Teaching Philosophy de Dr Andrea Kenkmann

Teaching Philosophy

Editat de Dr Andrea Kenkmann
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 feb 2009
In the current academic climate, teaching is often seen as secondary to research. Teaching Philosophy seeks to bring teaching philosophy higher on the academic agenda. An international team of contributors, all of whom share the view that philosophy is a subject that can transform students, offers practical guidance and advice for teachers of philosophy.
The book suggests ways in which the teaching of philosophy at undergraduate level might be facilitated. Some of the essays place the emphasis on individual self discovery, others focus on the wider political context, many offer practical ideas for enhancing the teaching of philosophy through exercises that engage students in often unconventional ways. The integration of students' views on teaching provides a necessary reminder that teaching is not a one-way process, but a project that will ultimately succeed through cooperation and a shared sense of achievement amongst participants.
This thoughtful and important book emphasises the responsibility of the philosophy teacher towards his or her students and to society in general.

Recenzii

'Kenkmann has brought together an impressive variety of contributors, each of whom provides a different perspective on how one should approach the teaching of philosophy. A distinctive and refreshing feature of the book is that all the authors embed their recommendations within a particular philosophical tradition rather than a general pedagogical theory. The sheer range of approaches should stimulate a much needed debate among philosophers about how best to teach their discipline.' - George Macdonald Ross, Director of the Subject Centre for Philosophical and Religious Studies, University of Leeds, UK
