Ethics in the Classroom – 4/10/26 Lecture

Why and How We Ought to Address Ethics in Critical Thinking Courses       

Katharina Stevens,   Assoc. Prof. of Philosophy, University of Lethbridge            

Abstract:  There are probably as many ideas about what belongs in a critical thinking course as there are instructors who teach critical thinking courses. But one thing that is generally missing in such courses are lessons that specifically address the ethics of interpersonal reasoning. In this talk, I will present an argument for the claim that we all should teach some ethics in our critical thinking courses, and I will address shortly how I think this can be possible without having to overhaul our courses completely.

I am in love with words. Trained as a linguist, journalist and researcher, I write, teach writing, and research everything about writing, especially how writing aids critical thinking. I've taught around the world, including three years in Kazakhstan, and a year each in Russia, Saudi Arabia, and Germany.
