  2. Do you expect higher-quality #dialogue in small group discussions or whole class discussions?

    It might depend on the metric:
    - small groups fostered more invitation for peers to weigh in (d = 0.78, p < 0.001)
    - whole classes generated more justifications of one's viewpoint (d = 0.69, p < 0.001)

  3. Teresa McCormack closed the #SPP2023 #preconference on #memory with “The value of remembering and anticipating experiences: a developmental perspective”

    It was—as Teresa put it—dangerously close to an #xPhi talk. It adapted a famous thought experiment (from Derek Parfit?) to test kids’ and adults’ intuitions about how much we care about past, present, or future versions of us.

  4. Today I found Deena Weisberg's (and David Sobel's) #freeBook about how kids can develop scientific thinking! A (concernig) take-away: not all pedagogy is equal.

    Traditional #teaching may prevent kids from becoming as reflective as "inquiry-based" approaches.

  5. @stefanhansen But if I should mention one work you could begin with Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus and you would probably learn something yourself. #skolechat #philosophy #P4C

  6. @stefanhansen The question, I'm afraid, doesn't make any sense. In a way all philosophical work would be understandable to a 7 years old because all understanding is a process going on for a listener/reader - in another way no work would be understandable if understanding is understood conceive what was the intent of the writer. Understanding is not not something going on in the Shannon and Weaver tunnel. #philosophy #P4C #skolechat
