It is certainly a useful course for anyone working with students aged 7-12.The focus of the course is on 'doing philosophy with' (not 'teaching philosophy to') young learners: there is less emphasis on teaching about specific philosophers, philosophical concepts, or movements in the history of philosophy; instead, the course emphasises the value of philosophical thinking styles, questioning skills and 'community of inquiry' approaches to the exploration of philosophical issues in classrooms.
