Philosophy's Rematch: A New Conceptualization of the Study of Higher Education
Arts and Humanities in Higher Education: An International Journal of Theory, Research and Practice, v20 n4 p386-402 Oct 2021
In recent decades, philosophy has been identified as a general approach to enhance the maturity of higher education as a field of study by enriching theory and method. In this article, I offer a new set of philosophical recommendations to spur the disciplinary development of higher education, departing from previous work in several meaningful ways. Due to their deep and useful connections to higher education research, philosophy of measurement, virtue epistemology, and Bayesian epistemology are introduced and discussed in relation to their conceptual association and potential practical influence on the study of higher education. The culmination of these points signals a learner-centered lens focused on the development of students.
