Professor - Philosophy of Education
Following Raimondo Panikkar’s lead, I understand philosophy’s task for today’s world to be “to know, to love, and to heal.” I bring this “philosophy of philosophy” with me in my research contributions to a wide variety of fields in the area of education. Since my tenure in 2003, I have been committed to collaborative research and writing, especially involving my students as part of my supervision and mentorship. My most recent collaborative work experiments with a narrative inquiry and re/works one of the most important concepts in my philosophical work: biophilia. Email: heesoon_bai@sfu.ca |
