Step 1: We Choose a Stimulus

We choose a stimulus to start the philosophy session. This can be a story, a picture, a video clip, a film or even an idea with a specific theme.

Step 2: We Share Our Opinions

A Bijak facilitator leads the philosophy session, creating a comfortable environment where all opinions are valued, and each and every participant is encouraged to share their thoughts. The facilitator asks and reformulates the questions, and also clarifies, connects, extends and summaries the replies. 

Step 3: We Engage in a Critical Dialogue

Using logical reasoning, critical thinking and conceptual analysis, participants explore the issue in depth. They put forth arguments and counter arguments, provide examples, construct criteria and build on each other’s ideas.

Step 4: We Improve Our Knowledge & Understanding

After conducting a Critical, Collaborative, Creative and Compassionate analysis, participants improve their knowledge and gain a better understanding of the theme under discussion.
