Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore the role of language in the construction of education from the perspective of the philosophy of science. The main role of language in the educational process is not only as a means of communication but also as a medium for building knowledge, a tool for conveying ideas and forming critical thinking. The method used in this study is library research, which examines literature and theories related to language and education. This study also examines how a language influences the understanding and dissemination of knowledge. The analysis was carried out to see the contribution of language in the formation of curriculum, pedagogy, and interaction between teachers and students. The results of this study indicate that language functions as a means of communication and as an epistemological tool that shapes the reality of education. The philosophy of science provides a critical foundation for understanding the relationship between language, knowledge, and education. After understanding the role of language in the construction of education through the lens of the philosophy of science, the results of this study are expected to provide new insights into the development of more effective educational strategies that focus on the power of language as a medium of instruction
