ABOUT OF THE BOOK: Teaching of philosophy and critical thinking is one of the main problems to clearly reaffirm the value of human person and of goodness and freedom. It is not sufficient to propose a philosophical message but we had to teach it systematically (curriculum) with a real synergy of teachers and parents. An educational philosophy is a personal statement of a teacher’s guiding principles about “big picture” education-related issues, such as how student learning and potential are most effectively maximized, as well as the role of educators in the classroom, school, community, and society. Many fields can be studied and learned without ever actually working with the tools in the field. For instance, chemistry can be learned in depth without ever picking up a test tube or mixing ionic compounds. Philosophy, however, is more about the methodology behind deriving answers than it is about the answers themselves. As such, students studying philosophy must use the methodology of philosophy on the philosophy they are learning as they are learning it. Doing philosophy involves asking the right questions, critically examining the work of previous philosophers, truly understanding the works and the reasoning behind the works, and possibly building on the works of previous philosophers by expanding or testing this methodology
