Knowledge and Virtue in Teaching and Learning: The Primacy of Dispositions

By Hugh Sockett

Book Overview

This book explores how philosophy of education can be brought to bear on real problems of educational research and practice-pointing the reader to re-envision what it means to educate children (and to prepare teachers for this role) by developing the person, instead of simply knowledge and skills.
