Welcome to my 4 Day Camp on "Fun Philosophy". We will cover all the essentials for understanding the basics of Modern Philosophy. Including Epistemology, Metaphysics and Philosophy of Mind, Psychology and Perception. Classes will be in a lecture style using multi-media PowerPoint slides with opportunities for questions. We will cover the following topics: 1) UTILITARIANISM: Should we always act for the greater good? 2) EPISTEMOLOGY: I think therefore I am: Did Descartes Prove We Exist.... maybe not! 3) PHILOSOPHY OF MIND & PSYCHOLOGY: What is consciousness? What is it made of and what is it for? 4) PSYCHOLOGY OF SELF & PERSONAL IDENTITY: What makes you the same person over time? Could you survive teleporting? Please contact me if you have any further questions or need any other information.

Orientación para padres
This course discusses whether we are in a simulation or otherwise being fooled about our existence. We also use the Trolley Problem as a cartoon illustration as a thought experiemnt for moral choices where the person has to choose whether to direct a tram to run over 1 person or 5 people. It is done in a light hearted very abstract manner but some more sensative students might find it distressing.
Requisitos previos
No previous experience required but please note this is not a basic class, so younger students may find it more challenging unless they are already very keen on this subject.
Recursos externos
Los estudiantes no necesitarán utilizar ninguna aplicación o sitio web más allá de las herramientas estándar de Outschool.
