Accordingly, a distinction is made between tests that are based on association, which have…

Pritchard, Duncan – Journal of Philosophy of Education, 2013
A certain conception of the relevance of virtue epistemology to the philosophy of education is set out. On this conception, while the epistemic goal of education might initially be promoting the pupil's cognitive success, it should ultimately move on to the development of the pupil's cognitive agency. A continuum of cognitive agency is described,…

It is argued that the capacity to learn should be interpreted as a portmanteau term that…

Atherton, Margaret – Educational Theory, 1978
The relationship between knowledge and effective and autonomous thoughts and actions is explored with special regard to implications for educational curriculums and teaching.

Bruner, Jerome S. – Journal of Social Issues, 1983
