Even with having an undergraduate degree in Psychology with minor in Philosophy I could not understand the importance of relating Philosophy to Education until hearing this lecture! I am excited to have found your videos and can see that I will be referencing them in my graduate studies. Thank you very much for making them accessible on the Internet!
I’m glad to know you found this material useful, Jessica. All the best to you in your graduate studies.
These lectures are great, i have a final exam coming up and i want to watch all the videos before, sorry i didn’t find them earlier.
That’s very true Mr. Hicks. In fact, what we, as teachers, really need is to be eclectic; knowing all the different philosophies and approaches to education and then choose the best from each of them. that’s how we grow professional.
Philosophy of Education is very useful and essential in educational system of today…..

Thank you for sharing your expertise on this course. Very informative my students will surely have a great understanding on these matter. I’m listening with your videos for 3 years already and use it on my class as part of strategy e-learning.
Thanks for the great feedback, Prof. Lou.
