dc.description.abstractThis paper discusses the training of the igerian pedagogue. It contends that the curriculum used to prepare the j igerian pedagogue must be enriched with the capacity to produce critical and creative tea hers who will, in turn, produce critical and creative Nigerians. This will be beneficial 0 the education system, for the latter will henceforth be managed by eholders who po es the ability to innovate the system. Such a system will au omatically be rid of robots and fuddy-duddies. The paper suggests three options 0 rej 'enating the tea her education curriculum: infusing a new course on 'Logi an Aestheti -' in 0 the teacher education curriculum; strengthening the philosophy 0 '0 0 nen of teacher training courses and making it core; modifying th e.' eral 0 e on 'Philo ophy & Logic' into 'Philosophy, Logic & Aestheti s', <: me ontent in such a way that it can instil both criticality and creativity.en_US
