PL 341 - Philosophy of Education

(3.00 cr.)

The history and problems of education are approached from a philosophical perspective. What is teaching? What is learning? What is the purpose of education? These are central questions in this course. This historical context (Plato, Aristotle, Rousseau, Dewey) help to illuminate contemporary controversies.

Prerequisite: PL 201 and one additional PL 200-level course.
