About this ItemThe item is a book PaperbackThe Title is Handbook of Philosophy of EducationCondition NewOther CommentsEdition Number - 0001. Pages Count - 466. Binding type - Perfect. Content Language - English Category - EDUCATION / GeneralProduct Description -This book features chapters on timely, emerging, and global issues, such as campus speech, racial and linguistic justice in education, climate education, neoliberalism in education, the future of higher education, international educational testing, educational problems of mass migration, and educational justice for working children across the world It addresses fundamental questions of educational theory and policy, such as the nature of educational justice, the roles of evidence and values in educational decision-making, the basis for prioritizing some educational aims over others, and widely-discussed educational aims such as human flourishing and global citizenship. The volume reflects important developments on both the epistemic knowledge-focused and value-focused ethical, justice-related, and moral-developmental wings of philosophy of education, and the ways these come together in important problems of civic life - especially, the polarization of public life and breakdown of public i.e., shared knowledge, and questions about how schools can do their jobs in a world in which controversy rages over things that are often matters of strong scientific consensus. In this regard, a particularly valuable aspect of the volume is its attention to the educational and civic importance of both virtues of mind intellectual or epistemic virtues and the ways in which epistemic virtues and vices interact with disciplinary knowledge, networks of epistemic trust and reliance, and the ways we teach. Relevant chapters here include ones on Mind, Reason, and Knowledge Understanding as an Aim of Education Cultivating Intellectual Virtues Intellectual Character Education Free Speech and Education Democratic Education and the Controversy over Controversial Issues College Teaching, Indoctrination, and Trust and Climate, Science, and Sustainability Education. The volume reflects the increasing importance of multidisciplinary approaches in philosophy of education, and the relevance of many subfields of philosophy to philosophical work on education. Multidisciplinary approaches and developments in related subfields of philosophy allow contemporary philosophy of education to address new and important questions in compelling ways. This is evident throughout the volume. The chapters are authored by some of most distinguished philosophers writing on education today, and many of them also bring to their topics deep experience in educational and policy leadership. These authors include: Danielle Allen a policy thought leader and currently candidate for Governor of Massachusetts, Harry Brighouse who has done extensive education policy work, Nancy Cartwright the world's leading philosopher of science and an international thought leader on the uses of social science in public policy, Ann Cudd Provost at the U of Pittsburgh, Daniel Weinstock one of Canada's leading public philosophers and contributors to policy debates, Sigal Ben-Porath who has been consulted extensively by universities across the US when controversies have erupted over free speech, and Yuli Tamir a former Minister of Education of Israel and university president.We Use Stock ImagesBecause we have over 2 million items for sale we have to use stock images, this listing does not include the actual image of the item for sale.
