Intermediate Level
***(IMPORTANT: Learners are asked to keep cameras on in this social, discussion-based class.)*** Come have fun in this one-time class where we explore some basic yet tricky moral dilemmas! All of the moral dilemmas chosen for this course are tween and teen friendly! This class will not be a lecture, but will be discussion-based, interactive, and in some cases, simply open-ended. The main goal will be for students to participate in reflection and both share as well as listen to multiple perspectives and viewpoints. In addition, this class will be a fun way to engage learners' critical thinking and debate skills.
Learning Goals
Students will benefit from being able to engage in philosophical moral discussions, listen to different perspectives, gain insights from other points of view, and defend their own viewpoints.Other Details
Parental Guidance
The moral dilemmas chosen in this class are tween and teen friendly, but this class will allow for the free exchange of ideas from the learners. Therefore, parents can decide if the open-discussion nature of the class is a good fit for their young learner(s). Of course, all discussions will always be moderated in a way to keep examples and views relevant, appropriate, and in line with Outschool's policies.
Supply List
Some students find it fun to create art while chatting, so a notebook or paper might be good to have close by to draw, doodle or even make something with clay. This is just an optional idea and certainly not required but can increase focus and creativity in some learners. Some students may want to take optional notes as well, depending on their academic goals.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
