| Abstract: | The article discusses the role of teachers in navigating controversial issues while fostering open dialogue rather than indoctrination. Topics include the challenges of teacher neutrality; the creation of cooperative, non-judgmental classroom environments; and a Deweyan model of inquiry that encourages critical thinking through genuine perplexity and civil discussion. |
