Research subject Educational Philosophy
Educational philosophy is about philosophical foundations for pedagogical issues. It can be about epistemological, moral-philosophical and aesthetic studies regarding learning, teaching, school and education in national and international contexts.
Questions asked can be what do students learn, how and why? It can also be about critical studies of the effects of education. Is it preparation for the labor market or something more profane such as education, autonomy and creativity? In addition, educational philosophy can also demonstrate what is possible with education such as educating critical thinking and creative people under different circumstances such as social, cultural, economic and political.
