Abstract

It is argued that the concept of considering is complex, and the word is ambiguous. The meaning which is of central concern in education is considering as reflection, and this is related to open-mindedness. Various objections which seek to prevent certain topics from being openly considered in schools are examined, and it is shown that none of these tell against considering as reflection. In conclusion, the conceptual relationship between considering and teaching is sketched.
