Forum Policies
The Online Discussion Forum is provided by the Queensland Association for Philosophy in Schools (QAPS) in order to further its non-profit aims and objectives. The purpose of this Forum is to provide a pleasant environment for QAPS members to post and discuss ideas about classroom practice, philosophy, educational theory and practice, research, and related matters. You can post anything relevant to the aims and objectives of the Queensland Association for Philosophy in Schools.
QAPS does not monitor or edit posts prior to availability for general viewing, nor is every post necessarily scanned to determine whether it should remain available. However, to maintain compliance with Forum guidelines the Forum is moderated. QAPS, therefore, reserves the right without prior notice to remove inappropriate postings, or to terminate the Discussion Forum access of any user who does not abide by the Forum guidelines.
NOTE: QAPS or members of the executive committee accept no responsibility for the opinions and information posted on this Discussion Forum by others.
