THE NATURAL CONNECTION BETWEEN PHILOSOPHY AND PEDAGOGY IN APPLIED PHILOSOPHY

Summary/Abstract: In Hungary, many specialists deal with the issue of children's philosophy. We can also find examples of their practical implementation in several cases in their publications. More and more teachers are discovering the beneficial effect of using elements of children's philosophy, which is reflected in learning and social behaviour. Teachers of morality and drama report on the possibility of applying them in classes and their successful and effective processing. The question arose in my mind: can experience centred teaching develop critical, creative and uncompromising thinking according to children's philosophy, as well as cooperation with each other, and if so, in what ways can folk play and folk dance teaching contribute to develop them? The children's philosophy approach of applied philosophy may seem distant from the goals or tasks of folk dance pedagogy. In my study, I explore the intersection of the two sides and look for its application possibilities. If the development of thinking in childhood and ethical and moral education are requirements in pedagogy, and they are central principles in applied child philosophy, they should also be found in the teaching of folk dance and folk games.
