Philosophy Of Education and National Development

About this Book

EDU 202 – Philosophy of Education introduces students to the philosophical foundations of education and connects classical and contemporary ideas with Nigerian and African educational realities. The book moves from the meaning and scope of philosophy of education to epistemology, major schools of thought, African philosophy, contemporary issues and the contribution of education to national development.
The chapters are written in accessible academic language for undergraduate learners while remaining useful to lecturers and other readers interested in educational philosophy. Each chapter combines conceptual explanations, contemporary scholarship, Nigerian/African perspectives, educational implications, review questions and objective questions for assessment.
