Philosophy
• Etymologically, the word “Philosophy” comes from the

• So philosophy originally means “love of wisdom”
• Philosophy also is defined as the science that by
natural light of reason studies the first causes or the
highest principles of all things.. What does this mean?
Education
Education has been defined by various scholars according to
their cultural and social set ups. The few definitions are as
follows:
• Plato says, education is to develop physically and mentally a human
being, in such a way that his / her potentialities could be realized.
• Aristotle says, education is the process though which a sound mind is
developed in a sound body.
• According to Dewey education is the process to develop all the
capabilities of a person as he/she could control his/her environment
and fulfill his / her duties.
Importance of Philosophy in Education
According to Doll (1992: 28), philosophy has the
multifaceted effect of helping us to:
• indicate in general what we mean,
• make what we mean more specific and definite, and
• develop what we mean into a useful construct
(Curriculum)
• Philosophy is at heart of curriculum development
