Wednesday morning second period before lunch break the philosophy teacher discussed education based on the subject with emphasis. Here are some highlights she discussed, One of the difficulties in giving a more precise definition is the great variety of topics that are being discussed in the philosophy of education.

Some studies focus on its fundamental concepts, like the concepts of education, teaching, learning, and students.

Such studies often take the form of conceptual analysis, which aims to clarify concepts by discovering their fundamental constituents.

Many discussions centre around the aims of education, i.e. issues like why individuals should be educated and what purposes should be pursued in the process.

There is wide agreement that these aims include passing on knowledge as well as the development of the abilities of good reasoning, judging, and acting.

However, theories describing more specific goals and their relative importance are usually controversial.

Prominent suggestions include curiosity, creativity, rationality, morality, freedom, autonomy, and open-mindedness.

An important discussion concerning the epistemic aims of education is whether education should focus mainly on the transmission of true beliefs or rather on the ability to reason and arrive at new knowledge on one's own.

In this context, many theorists emphasize the importance of critical thinking in contrast to indoctrination.

Critical thinking is a form of reasoning that is reflective, careful, and focused on determining what to believe or how to act.

It also involves the ability to challenge unwarranted claims by epistemic authorities, in contrast to indoctrination, which is primarily concerned with instilling certain beliefs into the student's mind without regard to their evidential status.

Another debate about the aims of education is whether the primary beneficiary is the individual educated or the society having this individual as its member.

Jess's desk is closer to the window while the teacher keenly discussing with the class her bic pen cover sticks in her mouth as she chews it slowly looking out of the window every single time the teacher moves out of her aisle backing her.

The view from where she sat showcased the beauty of Giftson High the wide field where they premier the soccer league, and parking lots containing teachers and students cars trust me the student cars were far more exotic compared to that of the teachers.

"Many of the more specific discussions in the philosophy of education concern the contents of the curriculum.

This involves the questions of whether, when, and in what detail a certain topic, like sex education or religion, should be taught.....who wants to analyse" Jess saw a salon car drive into the parking lot, a slender dark-skinned girl stepped out of the car along with a fair skin guy, she couldn't read what was hanging around their neck but it looks like a badge, from the Burberry pantsuit the lady wore and the denim and vintage shirt as the guy they look official.

"Okay Alex" the philosophy teacher pointed out from the rest of the students whose hands were up as well.

Jess grabbed her backpack and left her seat, the teacher was confused because she expected Jess to answer her almost debate question but why the hell was she coming toward her with her backpack?
