Aims to introduce participants to the powerful methodology of Philosophy for Children (P4C). The workshop will demonstrate how P4C can significantly improve teaching and learning outcomes with minimal preparation required from educators.
Participants will explore the key features of P4C and learn facilitation tools and techniques that lead to fruitful philosophical inquiries. The workshop will highlight how P4C builds higher-order thinking, questioning, and speaking and listening skills across primary (and beyond?)
The session will showcase P4C's impact on developing critical thinking, oracy, and self-efficacy in students. Participants will engage in hands-on activities to experience how P4C creates a more collaborative learning environment and empowers children to take control of their own learning. The workshop will also address how P4C can be integrated into various subjects and used to explore challenging topics.
