`Whatever we teach, we need to teach youngsters how to question the way the world works. This book gives teachers in every subject discipline the background, the approach and some examples. It bridges that gap between good ideas and learning theory. Enjoy thinking about what it means for your teaching approach.'---Mick waters, Professor of Education, Wolverhampton University, UK
`A pervasive environment of terror surrounding high-stakes public exams has always made the secondary classroom a tough pitch for P4C enthusiasts. Drawing on the insights of subject specialists, this book nails the myth that there is a necessary contradiction between high-level performance in curriculum-centred domains of knowledge and the transferable skills, virtues and dispositions that are nurtured through P4C. In so doing, the contributors demonstrate that P4C has an invaluable role to play in showing curriculum subjects at their very best.'---Barry Hymer, Professor of Psychology in Education, Faculty of Education, University of Cumbria, UK
`One of the excuses often given for not teaching philosophy in schools is that there is no space for it in an already overcrowded curriculum. This book brilliantly demonstrates how every discipline in the national curriculum can be taught philosophically, using the methods of P4C. Each discipline has its own chapter, filed with detailed examples of how the methods can be applied. The result is not merely that philosophy finds its place, but that teaching methods will be dramatically improved across the board.'---George MacDonald Ross, Visiting Senior Lecturer in Philosophy, University of Leeds, UK
Edited and collated by the UK's leading P4C organization, this book introduces a rationale for using and adapting P4C in the secondary curriculum.
