Abstract

The purpose of philosophy of education is to continually investigate and explore improved ways of thinking. Idealism, one of the oldest educational philosophies, has had a significant impact on the field of education throughout history, from Plato and medieval Europe to Kant, Hegel, and the present day. By examining the philosophical underpinnings of Idealism and its interpretation of education, this text explores the advantages and disadvantages of Idealism as a means of solving current and future educational problems. It also offers the possibility of exploring better ways of thinking and expanding professional self-development. The text avoids utilitarian treatment of the topic and maintains a balanced perspective.
