Question 4: How does Phenomenology respond to formal education systems?
(Refer to page 70 of Philosophy in Education Today: An Introduction for the
answer) (10)
Phenomenology responds to formal education systems by emphasizing the importance
of lived experiences and consciousness in the learning process. Instead of focusing
solely on standardized curricula and objective knowledge, phenomenology encourages
educators to consider the subjective experiences of students and how they perceive and
make sense of the world.
Phenomenology emphasizes the need for educators to engage with students as unique
individuals with their own perspectives and interpretations of the world. This approach
challenges formal education systems to prioritize personalized learning experiences and
to take into account the diverse backgrounds and experiences of students.
