GT Update – Teach Like a Philosopher: Learning with the "Good Life" in Mind - 30390
Before there were pirates and champions, the original giants of teaching and learning were the philosophers. In this virtual course, you will learn how the theories and methods of the great thinkers – East and West, Ancient and Modern – can transform your classroom into a space of free inquiry, open debate, and deeper learning. By tackling big questions about how the various disciplines define and contribute to "the good life," meaning, and our understanding of right and wrong, students can begin to build a full picture of the world in which they live and their place in it. This session will consist of a three-hour live Zoom meeting and approximately three hours of individual outside work.
