Philosophical education: the turn to the applied philosophy

Abstract

Focusing on the substantiation of the process of modernization of the model of philosophical education, the study aims to represent the turn to applied philosophy as a new educational and professional program for training the philosopher. The theoretical basis of the study consists of two main points: the economic position of social epistemology, within which the emphasis is on understanding the social process of knowledge production and distribution of cognitive work, which requires a basis of interdisciplinarity. As well as practical application of a competent approach to philosophical education, which requires its modernization in the context of the requests and practices of today. Scientific novelty is to justify a turn to applied philosophy in the training of professionals, which enables practice in real-world situations and contexts beyond the realm of philosophy. The normative content of the preparation of the Master of Applied Philosophy, which is provided with a complex of competencies, is first formulated in the main learning outcomes as a methodology, moderation, performance. Practical significance. New techniques introduced in the program of applied philosophy, aimed at the organization and presentation of applied philosophical and scientific project, the purpose of which is to make their own intellectual inquiry in the chosen practical and applied fields. The transition from a rigid academicism to the reinforced practical aspect of teaching philosophy is fully explained in order for a new understanding of the role of university education to be understood. Namely: to ensure that the student’s knowledge does not remain misconstrued or misused.
