Optics, Astronomy, and Logic

Studies in Arabic Science and Philosophy

These articles discuss the appropriation of Greek science by scholars in the world of medieval Islam. After presenting the historiography of this process, the volume focuses on Ibn al-Haytham, one of the most influential figures of the 11th century, and on his contribution to the science of optics and the psychology of vision. The work then analyzes how Greek thought was developed in the Islamic world, based on studies of Euclid's geomotry and critiques of Ptolemaic astronomy. Finally, some articles consider the history of logic - Aristotelian syllogism and Avicenna's views on the subject matter of logic.

History, Philosophy and Science Teaching

New Perspectives

This anthology opens new perspectives in the domain of history, philosophy, and science teaching research. Its four sections are: first, science, culture and education; second, the teaching and learning of science; third, curriculum development and justification; and fourth, indoctrination. The first group of essays deal with the neglected topic of science education and the Enlightenment tradition. These essays show that many core commitments of modern science education have their roots in this tradition, and consequently all can benefit from a more informed awareness of its strengths and weaknesses. Other essays address research on leaning and teaching from the perspectives of social epistemology and educational psychology. Included here is the first ever English translation of Ernst Mach’s most influential 1890 paper on ‘The Psychological and Logical Moment in Natural Science Teaching’. This paper launched the influential Machian tradition in education. Other essays address concrete cases of the utilisation of history and philosophy in the development and justification of school science curricula. These are instances of the supportive relation of HPS&ST research to curriculum theorising. Finally, two essays address the topic of Indoctrination in science education; a subject long-discussed in philosophy of education, but inadequately in science education. This book is a timely reminder of why history and philosophy of science are urgently needed to support understanding of science. From major traditions such as the Enlightenment to the tensions around cultural studies of science, the book provides a comprehensive context for the scientific endeavour, drawing on curriculum and instructional examples. Sibel Erduran, University of Oxford, UK The scholarship that each of the authors in this volume offers deepens our understanding of what we teach in science and why that understanding matters. This is an important book exploring a wide set of issues and should be read by anyone with an interest in science or science education. Jonathan Osborne, Stanford University, USA This volume presents new and updated perspectives in the field, such as the Enlightenment Tradition, Cultural Studies, Indoctrination in Science Education, and Nature of Science. Highly recommended. Mansoor Niaz, Universidad de Oriente, Venezuela This volume provides an extremely valuable set of insights into educational issues related to the history and philosophy of science.

Jewish and Islamic Philosophy

Crosspollinations in the Classic Age

For centuries, Islamic and Jewish philosophies have blossomed side by side in a symbiosis that has produced some of the world's greatest thinkers and ideas. Lenn E. Goodman, focuses on a series of core issues common to the two intertwined philosophical traditions - freedom and determinism, the basis of ethical values, the relationship between faith and reason, the governance of God, the basis of friendship, and the meaning of history - to examine the rich and varied interactions of two traditions that have carried on a written conversation spanning the centuries. The object of Goodman's discussion is not to find the "sources" of religious ideas (as if to credit the philosophical originality of one tradition or cast aspersions on the philosophical dependency of another), but rather to explicate, connect, and demonstrate the commonalities of these two competing yet inextricably linked religious and philosophical traditions. It is sure to become a key text for all students in religious studies, Jewish and Islamic studies, and philosophy.

Penelitian Tindakan di Kelas – Wujud Pembelajaran Eksperimental Y.B. Mangunwijaya

Misi Y.B. Mangunwijaya ketika merintis Sekolah Dasar Eksperimental di Pedukuhan Mangunan, Sleman, Yogyakarta adalah menemukan sebuah sistem pendidikan dasar yang berpihak kepada anak, yang mampu membuka kesempatan kepada anak untuk belajar dengan gembira dan merdeka, namun tetap terarah pada pemekaran bakat-bakat mereka secara eskploratif, kreatif, dan integral. Harapannya, anak terbantu dalam mengembangkan karakter kesetiakawanan, kerja sama, mandiri, disiplin, berdaya juang, dan lentur pada zaman yang serba cepat ini, yang menuntut kreativitas, kemandirian, serta kemampuan berjejaring (bekerja sama) secara sinergis dalam hidup. Gagasan visioner Y.B. Mangunwijaya ini sangat relevan untuk perkembangan pendidikan saat ini. Y.B. Mangunwijaya juga menegaskan pentingnya pendampingan para guru secara berkelanjutan. Guru mempunyai peran penting dalam mengembangkan komunitas pembelajar yang meliputi guru, murid, orang tua, masyarakat, dan semua yang terlibat dalam proses eksperimentasi. Oleh karenanya, tiap guru didorong untuk mengujicobakan berbagai metode dan rancangan pembelajaran yang kreatif untuk menjawab kebutuhan pemekaran bakat anak-anak. Inilah yang menjadi embrio action research atau penelitian tindakan. Hasil-hasil penelitian tindakan yang dihadirkan dalam buku Penelitian Tindakan di Kelas Mengalir dari Hati: Wujud Pembelajaran Eksperimental Y.B.
