The document discusses several philosophies of education including idealism, realism, pragmatism, existentialism/phenomenology, and neo-Marxism. Idealists like Plato believed that education helps move people towards truth and the good through dialogue and abstract ideas. Realists such as Aristotle focused on empirical research and logic to understand the world. Pragmatists like Dewey emphasized experiential and child-centered learning. Existentialists viewed education as a process of self-creation and choice. Neo-Marxists saw education's role as empowering students to critique and change society.
Experimentalism believes that things are constantly changing. It is based on the view that reality is what works right now and that goodness comes from group decisions. As a result, schools exist to discover and expand the society we live in. Students study social experiences and solve problems.

According to Erikson’s Psychosocial Development Theory, the concepts of generativity versus stagnation stage occurs by the time when we reach our mid-30s to mid-50s. From here, we start to really examine our lives and see if it is going the way we planned it or did it take a drastic turn. This is where some people take drastic steps and change their lives. It is when we start to question, "How can I contribute to the world?" Finding ways to advance or enhance future generations can help you work toward generativity instead of having a sense of stagnation. The basic virtue of generativity vs. stagnation is "care." This involves caring for others who are close to the person (family, co-workers, friends, etc.) as well as caring for the community or the future generation as a whole. If generativity is not developed, rejectivity, or a lack of meaning in one's life and in one's actions, can occur.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. What is Philosophy of Education
All teachers have a personal philosophy that
colors the way they teach
Engaging in philosophy helps clarify what
they do or intend to do, justify or explain
why they do what they do in a logical,
systematic manner
3. Understanding two important
notions
Who they are or intend to be
Why they do or propose to do what they do
Eric Berne’s three important questions:
Who am I?
Why am I here?
Who are all these other people, and what do
they want of me?
4. The meaning of Philosophical
Inquiry
“Whatever people choose to embrace, if their
choices are made in a logical, rational manner,
they are engaged in the process of ‘doing
philosophy.’”
Three specific areas of philosophical inquiry:
metaphysics concerned with questions about the
nature of reality; epistemology concerned with the
nature of knowledge; axiology concerned with the
nature of values
5. Particular Philosophies of
Education
Idealism, the first systematic philosophy in
Western thought…Socrates and Plato, the Socratic
method was dialogue
Generic notions: Philosophers often pose abstract
questions that are not easily answered but are
concerned with the search for truth
World of matter in constant state of flux, senses
are not to be trusted, continually deceive us
Truth is perfect and eternal, but not found in the
world of matter, only through the mind
6. Idealism
The only constant for Plato was
mathematics, unchangeable and eternal
Plato’s method of dialogue engaged in
systematic, logical examination of all points
of view…ultimately leading to agreement
and a synthesis of ideas…this approach
known as the dialectic.
7. Idealism
Plato believed education helped move individuals
collectively toward achieving the good.
The State should be involved in education,
moving brighter students toward abstract ideas
and the less able toward collecting data…a gender
free tracking system
Those who were brighter should rule, others
should assume roles to maintain the state
The philosopher-king would lead the State to the
ultimate good
8. Idealism
Evil comes through ignorance, education will lead
to the obliteration of evil
More modern idealists: St. Augustine, Descartes,
Kant, Hegel
Goal of Education: interested in the search for
truth through ideas…with truth comes
responsibility to enlighten others, “education is
transformation: Ideas can change lives.”
9. Idealism
Role of the Teacher: to analyze and discuss
ideas with students so that students can
move to new levels of awareness so that
they can ultimately be transformed,
abstractions dealt with through the dialectic,
but should aim to connect analysis with
action
Role of the teacher is to bring out what is
already in student’s mind: reminiscence
10. Methods of Instruction
Lecture from time to time, but primary
method of teaching is the dialectic…
discuss, analyze, synthesize, and apply what
they have read to contemporary society
Curriculum…importance of the study of the
classics…many support a back to the basics
approach to education
11. Realism
Aristotle was the leading proponent of
realism, started the Lyceum, the first
philosopher to develop a systematic theory
of logic
Generic Notions…only through studying
the material world is it possible to clarify or
develop ideas…matter is real independent
of ideas
12. Aristotle’s Systematic Theory of
Logic
Begin with empirical research, speculate or
use dialectic reasoning, and culminate in a
syllogism
A syllogism is a system of logic that
consists of three parts: (1) a major premise,
(2) a minor premise, and (3) a conclusion
For a syllogism to work, all the parts must
be correct
13. Philosopher’s Concerns
What is the good life?
What is the importance of reason?
Moderation in all things…balance in
leading one’s life: reason is the instrument
to help individuals achieve balance and
moderation
14. Realists
Neo-Thomism…Aquinas affected a
synthesis of pagan ideas and Christian
beliefs…reason is the means of ascertaining
or understanding truth, God could be
understood through reasoning based on the
material world…no conflict between
science and religion
The world of faith with the world of reason,
contemporary Catholic schools
15. Modern Realism
From the Renaissance, Francis Bacon developed
induction, the scientific method…based on
Aristotle, developed a method starting with
observations, culminating in generalization, tested
in specific instances for the purpose of verification
John Locke and tabula rasa, things known from
experience… ordered sense data and then reflected
on them
16. Contemporary Realists
Tend to focus on philosophy and science…
Alfred North Whitehead, concerned with
the search for “universal patterns”
Bertrand Russell with Whitehead, Principia
Mathematica…universal patterns could be
verified and classified through mathematics
17. Goal of Education for Realists
Notions of the good life, truth, beauty could
be answered through the study of ideas,
using the dialectical method…for
contemporary realists, the goal of education
is to help individuals understand and apply
the principles of science to help solve the
problems plaguing the modern world
Teachers should be steeped in the basic
academic disciplines
18. Pragmatism
An American philosophy from the 19th
century…
Peirce, James, Dewey
“By their fruits, ye shall know them.” Pragmatism
encourages people to find processes that work in
order to achieve their desired ends…action
oriented, experientially grounded
Rousseau… “back to nature”, environment and
experience…Emile, little regard for the education
of women other than to be Emile’s companion
19. John Dewey
Intellectual heir to Charles Darwin, constant
interaction between organism and
environment, dynamic and developing
world…child centered progressivism and
social reconstructionism
Instrumentalism and experimentalism,
pragmatic relationship between school and
society and applying ideas of education on
an experimental basis
20. John Dewey’s Philosophy
Education starts with the needs and interests of the
child, allows the child to participate in planning
her course of study, employ project method or
group learning, depend heavily or experiential
learning
Children are active, organic beings…needing both
freedom and responsibility
Ideas are not separate from social conditions,
philosophy has a responsibility to society
21. Dewey’s Role for the Teacher
Not the authoritarian but the facilitator…
encourages, offers suggestions, questions
and helps plan and implement courses of
study…has command of several disciplines
Inquiry method, problem solving, integrated
curriculum
22. Existentialism and
Phenomenology
Kierkegaard, Buber, Jaspers, Sartre, Maxine
Greene…existentialists
Husserl, Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty…
phenomenologists
How do one’s concerns affect the lives of
an individual…the phenomena of
consciousness, perception and meaning in
an individual’s experience
23. Existentialists and
Phenomenologists
Based on the earth alone, must make sense
of the chaos one encounters
“Existence precedes essence.” People must
create themselves and create their own
meaning…done through the choices people
make in their lives, in a state of constant
becoming…an individual can make a
difference in a seemingly absurd world
24. Existentialists
Education should focus on the needs of
individuals, include the nonrational as well
as rational, the notion of possibility
Teachers should understand their own
“lived world” and help students to
understand their world
The need to be “wide awake”…the role of
the teacher is intensely personal
25. Neo-Marxism
Radical critique of capitalism
The role of education should be to give
students the insight to demystify capitalism
and become agents of radical change
Marx believed the history of civilization
was defined by class struggle
General conflict theory…the teacher is a
“transformative intellectual”
