* Important: Due to the discussion-based and interactive nature of the class, cameras are required to be kept on for the duration of class. Thank you! :) As a former Introduction to Philosophy and Introduction to Ethics professor as well as volunteer teacher of philosophy classes for kids and teens, my university-inspired Philosophy 101 kids classes are designed to introduce young people to the discipline of philosophy as well as what it means to live in the world as a philosopher. Yes - philosophers are not only people from ancient times and a true philosopher can look like ALL of us! My specialty is making the discipline of philosophy fun, relevant, and accessible to all people. The class will be discussion-based as we enjoy chatting with each other about key areas of what it means to be a philosopher in the world and why kids of all ages not only are natural philosophers, but also that they do not have to wait until they are older or take a college class to be philosophical! The topics below will be explored during this introduction to the discipline of philosophy: Week 1: What is Philosophy? Part 1: Traits of a Philosophical Person Week 2: What is Philosophy? Part 2: Western Philosophy’s Origins in Ancient Greece Week 3: What is Philosophy? Part 3: Philosophy Today and Main Branches in the Discipline Week 4: What is Philosophy? Part 4: The Role of Critical Thinking, Argument, and Debate This is a beginner's course for kids with no prior knowledge of philosophy. I offer a variety of class options for students who find themselves in a more advanced position including one-on-one tutoring opportunities. *In addition, all enrollees in the the camp may join the Philosophy Club for a discounted price where they can enjoy additional practice exploring fun conversation challenges with other learners who are also interested in having more philosophical discussions! The club's focus is a more informal and relaxed environment so a perfect place to just have some extra philosophical chat time!
學習目標
Learners will be introduced to the academic discipline of philosophy in a fun, engaging, and conversationalist style.

What is Philosophy? Part 1: Traits of a Philosophical Person
In this lesson, we will reflect on what the traits are of a philosophical person, so we can personally relate to what extent we are already philosophical, but also realize that being a philosopher is about the way someone engages with the world rather than anything about their physical characteristics or even age. "Philosophy begins in wonder" - Plato.

其他詳情
父母的引導和規範
I do not plan to share any media, 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.
供應清單
Students may benefit from having a "Philosopher's Notebook" for the class to jot down terms we learn during the meeting, any questions that arise during or after class, and/or consider using it to engage in philosophical reflections after class or throughout the week. Some students find it fun to create art while chatting, so a notebook or paper might be good to have close by, but it is not required.
