The Philosophy Lesson and the Enhancement of Learners’ Critical Thinking: Strategies and Challenges
Kant’s timeless call to “dare to use your understanding” captures the enduring spirit of philosophy: to awaken independent thought and critical reflection. This article takes that idea as a starting point to explore how teaching philosophy today can go beyond abstract concepts to actively nurture critical thinking and shared human values among students. Drawing on both classical traditions and current educational imperatives, the study examines how philosophy can shape learners into thoughtful, engaged citizens. It also offers practical strategies for educators committed to this mission, while acknowledging the real challenges—both institutional and pedagogical—that they face. By re-centering philosophy as a transformative force in education, the article reaffirms its relevance in cultivating not only minds but also ethical and civic awareness
