In this article, we examine young children's narrative play as posthuman, collaborative composing assemblages. Thinking with Tsing (2015), we re/consider collaboration as that which benefits from contamination and unruly edges as lively and generative places can help educators to notice and nurture that which easily goes unnoticed. We are guided…

This article describes the multifaceted origins and dynamics of pedagogic progressive educational ideas among Mormon educators in the Utah Territory during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. We propose four principal avenues through which progressive educational ideas reached these Mormon educators. These include the exigencies of…

Internationalization at Home (IaH) has garnered widespread adoption and extensive scrutiny globally. To deepen the understanding of cross-cultural dynamics and operational principles, this study delves into the current status of IaH in China. Drawing from 35 case studies, the research confirms some cross-cultural elements of IaH while uncovering…

Bernard Stiegler diagnoses that we live in societies of control under an aesthetic conditioning. Marketing emerges as the foundational force in societies of control, adept at shaping individual desires and cultivating them into consumerism. Capturing our attention, particularly through audiovisual mediums, dictates our behaviour. In essence, the…

This paper presents a philosophical reflection on a first-year design studio, conducted as an experimental deviation from traditional 'all too human' models of architectural education. The pedagogical approach ventures into broader ethical concerns surrounding the nonhuman and the art of building. In the studio, familiar human standpoints were…

Much has been written about how to improve the fairness of AI tools for decision-making but less has been said about how to approach this new field from the perspective of philosophy of education. My goal in this paper is to bring together criteria from the general algorithmic fairness literature with prominent values of justice defended by…

This paper seeks to illuminate the connections between the moral philosophies underlying contemporary theories of educative leadership and metaphysical thought about organization in education. It begins by identifying the ethical foundations embedded in five preeminent leadership theories recognized in recent OECD research. The paper then…

For the past five decades, the majority of science education has adhered to a pedagogical philosophy which contends that issues in the acquisition and expression of target scientific narratives by learners stem from the existence of "incorrect beliefs" called misconceptions. According to this philosophy, misconceptions must be…

There is a need of a component in science education that can orient students to the complexity characterising the natural sciences position in relation to a globalised risk society and the Anthropocene. Recently, the implications of the German philosophical and educational construct "Bildung" have been discussed in this regard. In this…

Interviewer reflexivity is essential in social sciences to enhance the integrity of research studies because it builds trustful relationships, facilitates a nuanced understanding of phenomena, and captures both the individual and social dimensions of the human being. Although Finlay's (2003) five lenses of interviewer reflexivity--strategic,…

Sociability is a concept that reflects not only the individual's ability to enter into social communication, but also the dependence of the structure of social interaction on the degree of the individual's freedom in society. Kant's ethics arguably represents a key stage in the development of this idea. However, it was not until a later era that a…

The concept of "phronesis" enters educational discourse at various levels of engagement, and it continues to fascinate and frustrate educational theorists in equal measure. This article begins by charting the vagaries of three educational discourses on phronesis, and by eliciting insights from the recently burgeoning wisdom research…

Current conceptions of accountability imply that, in order for teachers to be able to hold themselves to account, they need first to have cultivated certain 'professional dispositions'. But these conceptions fail to acknowledge the extent to which teachers are first and foremost accountable 'as such'. For the early existentialist thought of the…

This article examines approaches to education developed by Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel and his contemporary and close friend, Friedrich Niethammer, two thinkers who significantly contributed to pedagogy. The aim is not only to compare both thinkers' ideas concerning education, analysing the similarities and the differences between their…

To many philosophers of education who are dissatisfied with the current value-neutral goal-driven technocratic curriculum, the idea of "Bildung"--which I conceive here in the neo-humanist form associated with Wilhelm von Humboldt--holds great appeal. It seems to promise, on the one hand, a richer, culturally situated form of rationality,…
