Paul Fairfield

Teachability and Learnability

Can Thinking Be Taught?

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book takes up questions of the teachability of thinking as well as thinking as inquiry, philosophical conceptions rooted in logic, and self-education to challenge understandings of thinking and teachability. Arguing that not everything that is learnable is also teachable, this book examines the limits of teachability alongside scepticism in managerialism in education and digital learning technologies.
