| Purpose: The module develops students' ability to philosophise in education which will strengthen their professional autonomy and enable them to respond to the challenges experienced in educational practices. This module enables students to consider educational issues philosophically within an African context and to articulate an own philosophy of education. Philosophical thinking is developed through the engagement with educational practices, the views of authors, the engagement with theories and the exploration of concepts. Students acquire the ability to articulate and problematise assumptions underlying educational practices and to develop theories and concepts that could contribute towards education that responds to the African context, the world of work, and to ethical, economic, political and environmental issues. |
