Dear Student
1 INTRODUCTION
We would like to welcome you to the module, Educational Studies in Context (ESC3701)! We are
sure you will find the content of the module interesting and rewarding. We further hope that this
shared module will provide a better understanding of Philosophy of education and Sociology of
education, and broaden your personal academic spheres of knowledge.
Therefore, the module consists of two parts, namely Part A: Philosophy of education and Part B:
Sociology of education.
In Part A you will embark upon a philosophical journey in education. Philosophy of education is
quite simply the theory on which we base and run our lives, including our educational lives. All of
us, knowingly or unknowingly, are guided by a certain philosophy or ‘life theory’. There are a
number of different ‘life theories’ available to us, and it is these philosophies – life theories – that
we will explore and discuss in this module. We will look at how these philosophies can influence
education and, in particular, the formulation of different philosophies of education. We live in a
global world and some of these philosophies have a very definite impact on educational practice
in terms of teaching and learning. The philosophies that we will explore are African philosophy,
Empiricism, Hermeneutics, Phenomenology, Critical Theory, Postmodernism and Critical Realism.
All these philosophies have advantages and disadvantages, certainly as far as education is
concerned. If we are to improve our various educational endeavours, we need to know what these
advantages and disadvantages are.
In the light of the above, this part of the module will deal with the:
o main ideas of different philosophies
o main ideas of different philosophies of education and what they have to say on
contemporary issues and problems in education
o implications of the main ideas of the different philosophies for philosophy of education.
We hope that you, as a student, in completing this module, will be able to develop your own
philosophy of education to help you reflect critically on:
o the philosophy of education which directs the education system in your country.
