Philosophy for Teens(1): I Think Therefore I Am-An Exploration of Logic
Class experience
US Grade 9 - 12
➖ 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆 𝗽𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗼𝗽𝗵𝘆?➖ Ever wonder why some choices just seem to make more sense than others? From school dilemmas (these happen in homeschool classes, too!) to friendship dramas, we will look at real-life scenarios and arm you with the tools to make informed choices. You will navigate life's choices with logic! Join our class for insightful discussions, empowering you to make reasoned choice! • Have ever wished you had a guidebook for life's tough decisions? Philosophy is that guidebook....
The following reasoning skills will be developed: Deductive reasoning, inductive reasoning, sequential reasoning, analogical reasoning, drawing inferences, coming to conclusions, use of evidence, focused inquiry, making sense of phenomena, and being able to see the "big picture".
I have been a student of philosophy for most of my life. I studied for 4 years with a student of Matt Lipman whose teachings this class is based on.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Philosophy by its very nature raises questions. This course will challenge the students to question everything they think they know. This can lead to uncomfortable conversations within a family structure.
Greetings and welcome to our classroom adventure, where curiosity takes the reins! I'm Kathy, your guide on this exciting journey of exploration. In our classroom, we embrace The Socratic Method, believing that questions fuel our learning...
