Question 1
1.1 African philosophy is concerned with attempting to reassert distinctively
African ways of thinking and of relating to the world. In the light of this, what
issues need to be addressed in education? List 4 issues. (8)
The four issues that need to be addressed in education concerning African philosophy:
1. Recognition and integration of African philosophy into educational curricula.
2. Revision of historical narratives to include African perspectives and contributions.
3. Promotion of critical thinking regarding African philosophy and its relevance to
contemporary issues.
4. Addressing the challenges of post-colonialism and the need for decolonizing
educational systems.
1.2 In responding to the question in 1.1, discuss the significance of ubuntu and
communality for education. (Refer to pages 14-17 of Philosophy in Education
Today: An Introduction) (20)
The significance of ubuntu and communality for education lies in their potential to foster
a holistic approach to personal and societal development, emphasizing
interconnectedness, empathy, and collective well-being.
Ubuntu, with its focus on the interdependence of individuals and the recognition that
one's existence is intertwined with others, offers a profound insight for educators. It
suggests that education should not merely aim at individual achievement but should
also prioritize fostering healthy relationships, empathy, and social cohesion among
students. By embracing ubuntu, educators can cultivate a learning environment where
collaboration, mutual respect, and care for others are valued alongside academic
success. This can lead to the development of emotionally intelligent individuals who are
not only academically proficient but also socially responsible and compassionate
members of society.
