insight4me is a series of subject specific webinars for current Year 12 & 13 students. The sessions support students’ current studies by giving an insight into particular curriculum areas whilst affording students the opportunity to talk to different universities and make informed comparisons about how, in this case, Philosophy is taught.
In this insight4me Philosophy webinar for schools and colleges, two universities will each have roughly 30 minutes to deliver a punchy, topic based ‘micro’ talk within an overall session theme of ethics.
UEA talk details:
'Ethics and the future'
Does the future pose an important challenge for ethics? Can ethical theories say sensible things about our relationship to the future?
Through the discussion, the universities are encouraged to provide an insight into the teaching and learning experience of this topic at university, and compare and contrast how other subject areas across the Philosophy spectrum might be treated. Students will gain an insight into how these subjects continue beyond A-levels, IB, BTEC and equivalent qualifications.
By hearing from 2 unis, students will also appreciate how the further study of Philosophy can vary between institutions, contributing to the depth of their HE research and assisting informed decision making.
Our events are designed so that a group of students can take part from a classroom or students and teachers can take part as individuals, either from school or from home. This means that sessions will continue irrespective of possible school closures.
Suitable for: Year 12 & 13 students studying, or with a possible interest in studying, Philosophy and related disciplines.
