Philosophical Foundations of Innovative Learning
Proceedings of the International Conference
on Philosophy for Children in Graz/Austria

On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the ACPC Austrian Center of Philosophy with Children, the international congress “Philosophische Grundlagen innovativen Lernens – Philosophical Foundations of Innovative Learning“ took place in Graz.Can philosophizing with children and young people improve their learning ability? This was one of the central themes of the congress. The gigantic dimension of knowledge imparted in the information society today poses new and varied problems and tasks for human society. To deal with this, and to accommodate the challenge of multicultural
society, we have to re-think accepted values, establish ethical considerations, and emphasize global thinking. Strategies which support autonomous, critical and creative thinking are necessary. Philosophizing as an elementary cultural technique offers the possibility of establishing cognitive, social, emotional and communicative basic skills, and encouraging creativity.
