Aims and means in the teaching-learning of Philosophy

Abstract

In order to answer the question of whether it is appropriate and necessary to
teach philosophy to young people in schools, we first answer a preliminary
question about why schools are necessary in modern societies, which
are pluralistic societies. We then address the question of what kind of
philosophy is appropriate for such societies, and how the question of the
ends and means of teaching and learning this academic discipline should
be approached. Finally, we give an example of the kind of resources we
consider appropriate for good teaching and learning of philosophy at the
beginning of this process.
