Reimagining Military Pedagogy: Advancing Stratosgogy to Align Modern Educational Practices with Battlefield Evolution

Professional Military Education (PME) is vital for developing leaders capable of navigating complex security environments, yet many military institutions still rely on outdated, fragmented training that fails to align with modern human capital development.This paper argues for the adoption of a structured and adaptable pedagogical framework to promote critical thinking, ethical leadership, and lifelong learning.It introduces Stratosgogy, an exploratory framework that integrates active learning, scenario-based training, and ethical reasoning while remaining adaptable to varied cultural and operational contexts.Drawing from global PME models, the paper addresses systemic challenges such as poor instructor training, rote learning, and the lack of continuous assessment, proposing Stratosgogy as a flexible pathway for reform and a foundation for further dialogue on modernizing military education
