Ethics of Teaching Lunch Event

The Ethics of Teaching (Part II) (Conversations on Teaching)
(Co-Sponsored by the Center for Ethics)
12:10pm – 1:30pm, Alumni Hall 205 (lunch provided)
Facilitators: Patricia Armstrong, Assistant Director, CFT; Charles Scott, Director, Center for Ethics
Panelists: Michael Bess, Chancellor’s Professor, History; Molly Miller, Professor, Earth and Environmental Sciences

The goal of this series is to bring forward for discussion such questions as:  What values do faculty members seek to foster in their students by and through their teaching, and what approaches do they use in their classrooms to foster those values?  In what ways are the power and authority dynamics present in our classrooms ethical issues, and how do we work with them? Each session will feature two faculty members speaking for 15-20 minutes each, to be followed by an open discussion by all in attendance.
