  • Summary

    In this chapter, we discuss methods and programs for teaching for wisdom. We present some principles of teaching for wisdom, such as dialectical thinking and dialogical thinking. Dialectical thinking involves realizing that what is good or appropriate can change over time. Dialogical thinking involves seeing, understanding, and appreciating other people’s points of view. We review some of the major programs for teaching for wisdom, such as those of Richard Paul and Matthew Lipman. We devote special attention to teaching for wisdom in the professions, such as in medicine, law, and business.
