This module consists of dedicated training that familiarizes students with practical ways of engaging the public with philosophical thinking.

The course makes use of a student-centred and highly interactive approach to philosophical education, availing of a particular pedagogy that is being used in diverse settings spanning from primary and secondary schools to nursing houses and prisons.
