R64: Thinking about Thinking: Philosophy and Reasoning in the Western World in Splash Fall 2010 (Nov. 06, 2010)
In this class, we will focus on various aspects of thinking, from the small scale to its place in the Western world. We will begin with an introduction to critical thinking and argumentation, followed by real world applications of theories of thinking (Aristotle, Kant, Peirce), and then a look at how thinking works in society (Foucault and Adorno). Though all big ideas here, they will be made concrete and accessible. Participants will receive a crash course into how to think better in their everyday and academic lives, and be given an introduction to looking at Western society.
