On a day to day basis, people don't actually discuss consciousness all
that much.
If we go beyond direct discussion of consciousness, then look at
epistemology. It is said to be a theory of knowledge. If it is a
theory of knowledge, why isn't it the underlying theory from which
teaching methods are derived? Why do schools of education prefer more
constructivist approaches
