The ontological and epistemological dimension of education in the context of philosophy of education

Philosophy of education is a very broad research field that aims to understand and explain the essence of education and thus includes many concepts, theories and theories. Ontology and epistemology, which ensure the integrity of philosophy, also play an important role in ensuring the integrity of knowledge about the nature and essence of education in philosophy of education. The ontology of education is the subject of research on the upbringing of the individual, the structure of the period and society in which the individual lives, and the characteristics of the educator. The epistemology of education, on the other hand, deals with the process of acquiring knowledge, the act of learning and the theories that enable this act. The philosophy of education, which is the result of the synthesis of education and philosophy, benefits from the ontology of education and the epistemology of education while determining the aims and objectives of the educational process, creating an educational and learning environment suitable for the needs of the individual and society, and trying to address the effects of different approaches to education on the learning process of the individual. The aim of this study is to explain the philosophy of education, to explain the concepts, theories and theories formed within the scope of philosophy of education in the light of ontology of education and epistemology of education, and to explain the relationship between human, educator and educated.
