What am I doing here, and what do I want this class to be? What kind of class am I designing, and why? What does a meaningfully inclusive classroom look like? Innovations in Teaching Philosophy tackles the current challenges in higher education with bite-size chapters offering practical advice on a variety of issues.
Here you will find guidance from award-winning teachers about what they have tried in the classroom, how it worked, and why they did it. Motivated by a recognition of the ever-changing landscape philosophy teachers face, the conversational tone of the short chapters emphasize accessibility and practicality. Standalone chapters allow you to gravitate toward what worries or inspires you the most.
