Philosophy and Ethics Teacher,
Course Overview:
Welcome to the Philosophy and Ethics class! In this course, we will explore fundamental philosophical concepts and delve into ethical theories and their applications. By engaging in thoughtful discussions and critical analysis, students will develop their capacity for philosophical thinking, ethical reasoning, and moral decision-making.
Course Objectives:
Introduce Philosophical Inquiry: Students will learn the art of asking fundamental questions about existence, knowledge, truth, morality, and the nature of reality, cultivating a sense of curiosity and open-mindedness.
Explore Major Philosophical Traditions: We will explore various philosophical traditions such as Western philosophy (including ancient, medieval, and modern philosophy), Eastern philosophy, existentialism, and more. Students will gain insights into different perspectives on life's big questions.
Investigate Ethical Theories: Students will study ethical theories, including consequentialism, deontology, virtue ethics, and ethics of care. Through case studies and ethical dilemmas, we will examine how these theories guide ethical decision-making.
Analyze Contemporary Ethical Issues: We will apply ethical theories to contemporary dilemmas and debates, such as artificial intelligence, environmental ethics, medical ethics, social justice, and the ethics of technology. Students will develop the ability to critically evaluate complex ethical problems.
Foster Critical Thinking and Argumentation: The course will emphasize critical thinking skills, logical reasoning, and the ability to construct and evaluate arguments. Students will learn how to analyze and critique philosophical texts, identify logical fallacies, and construct persuasive arguments.
Encourage Ethical Reflection: Through reflective exercises, students will engage in self-examination, considering their own values, beliefs, and moral frameworks. They will develop the ability to articulate and defend their ethical positions with clarity and coherence.
Promote Respectful Dialogue: The class will cultivate an environment of respectful and inclusive dialogue, where diverse viewpoints are welcomed and valued. Students will learn effective communication skills and practice active listening to enhance meaningful discussions.
Cultivate Ethical Awareness and Responsibility: Students will be encouraged to reflect on the ethical implications of their actions and decisions, both personally and in wider societal contexts. They will explore ways to contribute to a more just and ethical world.
