Abstract

[In teaching a philosophy of education course within teacher training program, we are often challenged by self-assertive student-teachers with questions like: “What is the relevance of philosophy to teacher training?” or more specifically, “What is the relevance of ‘philosophy of education’ to the (professional) life of teachers?” Knowing that any attempt to respond to such questions in the form of justificatory claims—i.e., giving the account of how useful it may be—will sound unconvincing to them, I tend to throw the question back at them, asking what sort of relevance they can conceive of in terms of its preparation for their professional lives.]
