03. Getting Our Thoughts Together: Instructional Manual To Accompany 'Elfie', Second Edition, Matthew Lipman Jan 2003

03. Getting Our Thoughts Together: Instructional Manual To Accompany 'Elfie', Second Edition, Matthew Lipman

Early Elementary School Curriculum

The cognitive skills emphasized in Elfie – distinction-making and connection-making – are those on which all-subsequent reasoning rests. They are accompanied by the criteria that are appropriate to them: sameness and difference. Other operations like the making of comparisons, the discovery of uniformities, the identification of classes, the formation of concepts, and the formulation of definition, all depend upon the logical infrastructure of these two sets of skills and criteria. Elfie should therefore be seen as the base of the Philosophy for Children program.

(2003) Transforming How Teachers Teach And How Students Learn, Laurance J. Splitter Jan 2003

(2003) Transforming How Teachers Teach And How Students Learn, Laurance J. Splitter

Collected Papers of Laurance J. Splitter

For some time, I have been interested in taking the idea of the community of inquiry (COI) beyond the context of philosophy and philosophy for children, to other subject areas and learning areas. We sometimes speak in impressively general terms about transforming "the classroom" into a community of inquiry assuming, perhaps, that once the practice of collective inquiry is established in one domain (eg philosophy), it will inevitably spread to others by the community itself. Another, somewhat more provocative way of stating this claim is to say that not only can subjects other than philosophy be taught as modes or …

(2003) Power, Manipulation, And Control In A Community Of Inquiry, Pavel Lushyn, David K. Kennedy Jan 2003

(2003) Power, Manipulation, And Control In A Community Of Inquiry, Pavel Lushyn, David K. Kennedy

Collected Papers of David Kennedy

In a previous paper, we introduced the notion of pedagogical imposition, and argued for its importance in understanding the psychodynamics of community of inquiry (CI). Practitioners of Cl usually define themselves as engaged in a liberatory pedagogy - that is, a form of teaching which avoids imposition on or manipulation of students. This paper will argue that, if we view the classroom as a system, this is a naive assumption. This argument is based, in turn, on our assumption that, first, any interactive system involves relations of power; and second, that any specifically pedagogical system involves unequal relations of power. …

Three Stories You Can Read To Your Cat (1997) By Sara Swan Miller, Gareth B. Matthews Jan 2003

Three Stories You Can Read To Your Cat (1997) By Sara Swan Miller, Gareth B. Matthews

Picture Books

When a cat's human friend leaves the house and tells it to be good, the cat does many things it considers good, like shredding the curtains, eating a house plant, and digging into the garbage. In this review, originally published in Thinking: The Journal of Philosophy for Children 16(4), 2003, Gareth B. Matthews demonstrates that young children can understand and enjoy the irony of sarcasm. They also enjoy grappling with the story's philosophical irony: the problem of clarifying the difficult question of what makes an action good or bad.

Hundred Dresses (1944) By Eleanor Estes, Peter Shea Jan 2003

Hundred Dresses (1944) By Eleanor Estes, Peter Shea

Chapter Books

Wanda Petronski was a poor Polish girl who lived with her father and brother. She had only one dress to wear to school but told the other girls in her class that she had a hundred dresses at home. Disbelieving her, those girls teased Wanda continually, until she and her family eventually moved out of town. When the class learned that Wanda had won an art award in absentia, they regretted their teasing and sent her a letter of apology, which resulted in an intriguing gesture of reconciliation. Moral development involves the moral imagination, which requires thinking oneself into the …

The Use Of Aesthetics In A Comprehensive Art Curriculum, Michelle Lynn Loudermilk Jan 2002

The Use Of Aesthetics In A Comprehensive Art Curriculum, Michelle Lynn Loudermilk

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

This study focuses on using aesthetics in the art education curriculum. It also suggests a variety of approaches through which art educators may implement aesthetics in the classroom. Discussions of aesthetics were found in writings of Plato and Aristotle and continue to this day. Philosophers have defined aesthetics as a theory of the beautiful. Educators took this idea a step further in developing curricula and methods of educating that include aesthetics. It has been said in art education literature that aesthetics gives those who practice it a more complete understanding of art. To show the extent of benefits that aesthetics …

12. Ліля (Lilya: Ukrainian Translation Of Elfie Novel), Matthew Lipman Jan 2002

12. Ліля (Lilya: Ukrainian Translation Of Elfie Novel), Matthew Lipman

Early Elementary School Curriculum

Ліля йде в перший клас і така сором'язлива, що не може говорити на уроці і навіть не може сформулювати запитання. Але мало що вислизає від неї, і її розум ламає голову над усім, що відбувається в класі та вдома. Коли директор пропонує конкурс, спрямований на вдосконалення міркувань, увесь її клас займається з’ясуванням того, як працюють речення та як створюються відмінності та зв’язки. У той же час Елфі та її однокласники виявляють багато відмінностей, фундаментальних для дослідження: видимість і реальність, одне і багато, частини і ціле, подібність і відмінність, постійність і зміна.

21. Руся (Rusya: Ukrainian Translation Of Pixie Novel), Matthew Lipman Jan 2002

21. Руся (Rusya: Ukrainian Translation Of Pixie Novel), Matthew Lipman

Early Elementary School Curriculum

Руся — учениця початкової школи, яку спантеличили та захопили багато аспектів її досвіду. У цьому романі наголошується на взаємозв’язках (логічних, соціальних, сімейних, естетичних, причинно-наслідкових, частково-цілих, математичних тощо), а також на компетентності у вирішенні таких зв’язків. Етичні концепції включають суперництво між братом і сестрою, особистість, повагу до інших, дружбу, таємниці, дотримання обіцянок, стосунки між батьками та дітьми, слухняність, дражниння та автономію. Читачі знайдуть сторінки Руся, усипані філософськими ідеями та головоломками, які спонукають до жвавих роздумів у класі. У тексті є кілька порожніх сторінок, на яких маленькі читачі можуть спробувати свої сили в ілюструванні книжок.

Когнітивні навички, які наголошуються в Ліля – розрізнення та встановлення зв’язків – це ті навички, на яких ґрунтується подальше міркування. Вони супроводжуються відповідними їм критеріями: однаковість і відмінність. Інші операції, такі як проведення порівнянь, виявлення одноманітності, ідентифікація класів, формування понять і формулювання визначення, все залежить від логічної інфраструктури цих двох наборів навичок і критеріїв. Тому Ліля слід розглядати як основу програми «Філософія для дітей».

(2002) Philosophy For Children In China: A Late Preliminary Anti-Report, David K. Kennedy, Walter Omar Kohan

Collected Papers of David Kennedy

We were part of a group of five academics visiting China in July 2000, in order to conduct two workshops in Philosophy for Children in two widely disparate cities - Kunming, in the ethnically diverse, far-from-Beijing southeastern province of Yunnan; and Shanghai, long known as the city where East meets West. Although we could not even read street signs, much less speak at all except through the kindness of interpreters, yet we sensed that Kunming and Shanghai were two different realities of contemporary China. The workshop in Kunming was conducted at the Southern Railway School, where P4C is being spearheaded …
