Workshop with a philosopher
A dialogue about ethics and aesthetics.
The aims of the course was to present some of the principles of Philosophy for/with children that arguably lead to some simple, everyday practices to help children and young people become thoughtful, curious and reasonable. Philosophy for or with Children’s central pedagogical tool is the community of inquiry, showing the positive role this structure plays in combating what is perceived to be a drift in society to the idea that opinions cannot be judged and do not need to be justified. This type of community was presented as a context for facilitating personal relationships inspired by a sense of participative democracy, an effective instrument that can be employed in service of an intellectual endeavour which rests on the concept of knowledge as a continuous and fertile intersubjective change rather than as a mere transfer of information.
