I think it should be focused on in college where you will have more qualified people in the field teaching it.

    Teaching basic philosophy isn't really that complex. It should be offered in high school because that's when many of these students are first really forming an identity as well as an outlook on the world.

  • I forgot about this. That's true. High school teachers aren't entirely equipped

    Exactly. I think they are qualified in many areas to teach but philosophy is a very delicate and advanced field of study. I always think of Plato's Republic Book V I believe where they discuss proper teaching and the power of a good philosophic education versus a bad education.

  • I think that's the book where it's glaucon and socrates going at it, can't remember. But yeah, philosophy is probably too advanced for high school teaching. I think there are some European countries that do have some sort of philosophy class for secondary eucation

    Close enough! Lol. I think those countries have a prudent policy. Philosophy is so easy to corrupt with.
