Teaching often involves examining areas that are known or that are agreed upon. However, many aspects of the world are not known. Many issues; political, moral, social, historical, aesthetic and scientific are matters of belief - often supported by various forms of reason. In these areas different beliefs are contested and can be matters of controversy. This module is an introduction to the philosophical and pedagogical questions raised by the teaching of controversial issues. It aims to offer both a theoretical basis and practical strategies for teaching controversial issues in schools. Participants will explore what controversial issues are and why they should be taught, examine concepts such as tolerance and respect and consider the role of reason in developing opinion. They will reflect on the role of the teacher in classroom discussions of controversial issues and explore a range of pedagogical techniques and resources.

The module is assessed by 5,000 word essay.
