Provide reasons and examples for your answer. Consult chapter 5 of your prescribed textbook. Hermeneutics is the art and methodology of interpretation of ideas and understanding the validity of the ideas. Hermeneutics help to know the knowledge a student has prior to the lesson. This helps in the dialogue about a subject matter. According to Kearney ( 1996:1 ) , hermeneutics the intentional action or approach of analysing and interpretation to uncover the underlying meanings behind written work which contemporary readers use other than traditional methods of interpretation . Higgs and Smith ( 2017:64 ) , postulates that excellence in the science field does not mean a life of fulfilment for human beings and argues that an innate need for communality and belonging results in a life of happiness . As a teacher I would strive to create a learning environment governed by inclusiveness and teach the learners about the power of landing a helping hand to one another , the learners will be taught to share the knowledge and educational resources with one another . This will enable the gifted learners not to leave leaners with learning difficulties behind , embodying the idea of togetherness and ensuring that each learner feels they belong . The Philosophy of Hermeneutics in education can be applied in classroom to help the teacher to easily help the learners understand complex subjects in the classroom. For example, the teacher may lead a discussion with learners concerning a topic and tries to speculate through their knowledge prior to the discussion. Afterwards, the teacher concludes with more comprehensive findings to justify the knowledge gained by the students. He can clarify some points which the students had differences. Therefore, the philosophy of Hermeneutics when applied in classroom helps the teachers pass information easily and effectively, hence, the learners capture the whole content of a topic. If we apply Hermencutics as our philosophy of education, we shall not accept the view that there is ‘one right answer’ to a problem. We shall also tend to focus on the artistic part of the curriculum rather than on a curriculum that emphasises the hard sciences.
