The longer I am a teacher, the more important I believe it is for students to ask questions and think about the world around them. Time to contemplate and think and figure out these big life questions is what the students did for four days in the Philosophy Challenge Centre.
Over the four days, students were given mini projects to complete. We worked with ideas such as: understanding valid arguments, learning about Plato and his ideas, understanding the nature of reality and truth; learning how to dialogue, and participating in mini research projects on various philosophers.
