Philosophy For Children And The Reconstruction Of Philosophy, David Kennedy

Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works

In this paper I trace the dialogical and narrative dimensions of the philosophical tradition and explore how they are reconfigured in the notion of community of philosophical inquiry (CPI), the mainstay of the collection of novels and discussion plans known as Philosophy for Children.

A Qualitative Study Of Social Dynamics In An Inclusive Preschool, Elizabeth Erwin, Elizabeth Alimaras, Nikki Price

Department of Teaching and Learning Scholarship and Creative Works

This qualitative pilot study explored social dynamics within a typical preschool classroom that included Ryan, a 3-year-old with severe visual impairments.

The findings indicated that Ryan was an active participant in shared social experiences with his peers, which contributed to his membership and …
