Rosie Scholl is currently undertaking a PhD project entitled
Transforming Pedagogy through Philosophy for Children, through the
School of Education at The University of Queensland. This thesis
explores the impact that training and implementation of Philosophy has
on the pedagogy of primary school teachers. Her supervisors are Dr Kim
Nichols and Dr Gilbert Burgh.
Rosie has taught in primary schools across Queensland since 1993 and
was a teacher at Buranda State School from 1999-2002, where philosophy
is taught throughout all year levels. She also has a level two teacher
educator certificate in philosophy and has worked with teachers in both
face to face and online modes to deliver in-service programs on the
teaching of philosophy in the classroom. She has completed a Master in
Education at The University of Queensland focusing on children’s
questions with regard to Philosophy, metacognition and reading
comprehension.
Rosie is a co-author of the book Philosophy with Young Children: A Classroom Handbook which was written with the principal and other teachers from Buranda State School and Philip Cam from the University of NSW.
