THE USE OF
COI IN TEACHING SOCIAL STUDIES IN PRIMARY SCHOOLS
ABSTRACT
This study
is conceived to confront the declining education standard in Nigeria. An
investigation into the philosophy guiding the establishment of education was
necessary with a view to finding the root of the problem.
COIP4C is an
educative approach that helps to stimulate the thinking capacity of children
and motivates them in reasoning. With P4C method, everybody is an inquirer or
philosopher. The main goal of P4C is to seek for truth and clarity of ideas. No
truth is the absolute and this method of educating children in the classroom is
what will help to bridge the missing link in the chain of education and that is
reasonableness.
CHAPTER 1
1. O
INTRODUCTION
1.1
BACKGROUND OF STUDY
Education is
the life wire of any nation. It is the catalyst that propels both economic and
social development. This explains why
nations as well as individuals lay so much emphasis on the intellectual
development of individuals. No individual or group of individual has ever
disagreed on the efficacy of education in solving societal problem. Everybody
all agrees that education is the panacea for the eradication of ignorance and
poverty.
In the same
vein (Babalola (2005:130) noted that education is one of the major elements
that influence economic growth. It inculcates skills which are useful in the
productive process of
(extractive,
manufacturing, engineering, construction and commercial services). Second,
education provides knowledge of law, since, medicine, arts, philosophy and
mathematics.
Third,
education provides job ethics and attitudes towards production of goods and
services. Finally, education produces dynamic and creative human resources.
Having seen
the importance of education in our society, the question is what kind of
education will help Nigerians attain to a greater height? Shall we continue to
adhere to an education that is too passive and rote oriented? Nigerians have
reached a stage that they need an advanced education system which will help to
empower, enlighten and rebrand them. COIP4C educative approach will address
this issue.
