%0 Journal Article %T The Dialogical Path to Wisdom Education %A Maya Levanon %J Analytic Teaching and Philosophical Praxis %D 2011 %I %X ABSTRACT: In the following pages, I make an argument on behalf of ¡°wisdom education,¡± i.e., an approach to education that emphasizes the development of better thinking skills as well as socialization and the development of students¡¯ sense-of-self. Wisdom education can best be facilitated through dialogical interactions that encourage critical reflection and modification of one¡¯s presuppositions. This account presupposes that wisdom is given to dialectical forces. While the paper is primarily theoretical, it touches upon my work as a teachers¡¯ educator, which almost always utilizes dialogical pedagogies in the belief that these pedagogies are potent platforms for better learning and thinking and thus are more meaningful and transformative. %U http://www.viterbo.edu/uploadedFiles/academics/letters/philosophy/atp/Levanon%20on%20Dialogical%20Path%20to%20Wisdom.pdf
