PHIL2160J: Seminar on Ethics, Education, and Fiction

This seminar focuses on fiction as a vehicle for discussing ethical issues in education. It also uses works by philosophers and other scholars. Topics include the following. What are appropriate aims for various types and levels of education? What are appropriate relationships between students and teachers? How much, if at all, should schools concern themselves with the non-academic side of students' lives? How should students be graded? How should students for selective schools be selected? How can fiction enrich the philosophical discussion of such questions? Students of diverse levels and backgrounds are welcome in this seminar!

Offered Spring, 2010 by the Philosophy department(s).
