• On Closing the Gap: or How to Challenge your Students to Engage in Philosophising Angelova-Elchinova, Madelaine 2022 Balkan Journal of Philosophy , Vol. 14 , Issue 1 , S. 53 ff. ( Zeitschrift ) Englisch 1313-888X | 2367-5438 10.5840/bjp20221417 Abstract

    In the following paper, I address the worry that there is an increasing gap between the way the world is perceived by students and by their professors and teachers respectively. I argue that even if there is indeed a huge difference between our two generations, ‘the gap’ becomes irrelevant when we engage in philosophising. I will attempt to provide three short proposals on how to eradicate the gap when teaching philosophy. My hope is to show that, if we really want to make an attempt to eliminate the lack of understanding between the students and us, there are four basic rules that we could apply to our educational method. My argument makes use of the concepts of truth-value, consensus and epistemic normativity.
