Summary or Abstract
|
:
|
The chief concern of educational philosophy, and this dissertation, is to offer a conception of truth such that the target of belief formation is reality-based. Hence the central question of education is initially one of ontology, not epistemology. A right ontological view, one based upon commonsense and aletheia (unveiled reality), will foster an environment for true beliefs and, by extension, promote individual liberty and social justice within the educational enterprise..
