One page for A, One page for B three for C, one page for D, the Title page, and the reference page. I need a minimum of 5 references to prove my theory.
You will take my philosophy and a theorist that we have talked about in this session and relate their theory to your philosophy on education or vice versa.
I have broken it down for you: A. Selecting a problem (one page): You must write an introduction to the problem or idea, in which you define the scope of the problem and describe its relevance to the course goals. Be as specific and precise as you can, making reference to the problem's historical, social, and/or cultural context, and, where appropriate, your relationship to it. Be sure to state why you believe this is in fact a real problem (you may need to do some research to find data on this subject). Finally, you must explain your personal or group rationale for selecting this particular problem.
B. Establishing a philosophical framework (one to two pages): By the end of the course, you will have been spending a great deal of time thinking about the ways in which different philosophic perspectives are and are not useful in different situations for different individuals, and step B asks you think about your own philosophical perspective in relation to the problem you've chosen. Before you articulate your mode of engagement with the problem, you must explicitly acknowledge both the important assumptions, values, and ideas that have led you to view your stated problem as a problem, and your mode of engagement as an appropriate response to that problem. That is to say, you need to describe what we'll refer to as your philosophical framework. Your selection of an appropriate (related, coherent, efficacious) philosophical framework is crucial, and you should be sure to explain very clearly why this particular framework suits both this problem and your mode of engagement, whether they be primarily epistemological, political, social, methodological, or anything else. Thus, you need not only to explain the philosophical framework itself but also to justify its value in this situation.
C. Proposing and explaining a response to the problem within this philosophical context (three to five pages): Taking the preceding sections into account, propose a response to this problem. The response can be curricular, pedagogical, institutional, methodological, discursive, or political — in short, while it must involve human action with specific goals and consequences, the components and arena of human action are entirely up to you. Layout each step of this decision very clearly. Why respond in this particular manner and not in others? How do these answers relate to the philosophical framework you've chosen?
D. Reflecting upon the efficacy and limitations of that response (one to two pages): Discuss with as much honesty, self-reflection, and humility as possible your proposal. What are its potential benefits? What are its drawbacks? What does it fail to address that is important? How might those things be addressed in another possible response? How realistic is your proposal — and what do you mean by "realistic"? Those in groups, each of whom must write this section individually, should also use this as an opportunity to discuss both the compromise solution your group wrote and the means by which you arrived at it.
I am seeking a minimum of 8 pages. You need a minimum of 5 references to prove your theory. Cover page, reference page, Times New Roman, and 12 font.
