2016 Speakers

Dr. David Hansen

David T. Hansen is the Weinberg Professor in the Historical and Philosophical Foundations of Education at Teachers College, Columbia University, where he also serves as Director of the Program in Philosophy and Education.  Hansen has a Bachelor of Arts in Intellectual History and a Ph.D. in Education, both from the University of Chicago.  He joined the faculty of Teachers College in 2001, after serving previously for a decade as director of an urban secondary teacher education program at the University of Illinois at Chicago.  Hansen has taught at several levels, including secondary school, and has worked closely with hundreds of teachers in the course of his career.  He has led seminars and workshops with teachers on the nature and meaning of education, on how to lead successful discussions with students of all ages, on how to create a classroom and school environment that supports authentic education, and more.

Professor Hansen has written widely on the work of teachers, including in books such as The Call to Teach (1995), Exploring the Moral Heart of Teaching (2001), Ethical Visions of Education: Philosophies in Practice (2007), and The Teacher and the World (2011).  He has been particularly interested in the ethical and moral dimensions of educational work – for example, the ways in which teachers and the curricula they use can assist students in deepening rather than rendering shallower their sense of humanity.  He has also written on John Dewey’s philosophy of education, with a particular focus on Dewey’s rich conception of ‘education as growth’, in works such as John Dewey and Our Educational Prospect (2007).  In recent years, Hansen has addressed relations between cosmopolitanism and education, and has published an array of articles on the topic in outlets such as The Journal of Curriculum Studies, Studies in Philosophy and Education, and Teachers College Record.  His book mentioned above, The Teacher and the World (2011) also features a cosmopolitan perspective.  He has lectured on the topic in many places around the world, including Brazil, Canada, China, France, Israel, Japan, the Palestinian Territories, and Turkey.

Professor Hansen has received numerous honors, including a National Academy of Education Postdoctoral Fellowship, the James and Helen Merritt Award for Distinguished Service to Philosophy of Education, the Outstanding Achievement Award from the John Dewey Society, an honorary doctorate from Orebro University (Sweden), and being named a University Scholar at the University of Illinois at Chicago as well as the Weinberg Professor at Teachers College, Columbia University.  Hansen is a Past-President of the John Dewey Society and of The Philosophy of Education Society, and is a Fellow of the American Educational Research Association.
