VIDEO | 60 minutes
What makes education transformative? How does it lead to a good life? What is the philosophy of education and why is it important?
Join us for a conversation with Professor Paul Standish to discusses the most important questions at the intersection of philosophy and education.
We probe into some unconventional ideas including why catering to a learner's wants can actually hamper their education, we challenge the narrow focus of standard educational courses, and consider why education can sometimes be seen as personal growth therapy.
