Teaching Endorsement on Ethical Disagreement and Civil Discourse
Each semester, CEHV offers the Ethical Disagreement and Civil Discourse teaching endorsement program, in partnership with the Drake Institute for Teaching and Learning. Through active learning exercises, this endorsement provides instructors and group leaders with tools and strategies to navigate contentious ethical disagreements and foster civil discourse in their classrooms or programs. The endorsement is led by a team of PhD trained ethicists and political philosophers at the Center for Ethics and Human Values with extensive experience in the classroom and leading dialogue facilitation with students.
Resources for Civil Discourse
CEHV and the Civil Discourse for Citizenship Program have, in partnership with campus stakeholders, prepared a variety of resources to support civil discourse around campus. These include a document summarizing general resources for Civil Discourse around campus, a slide deck providing an introduction to Civil Discourse and the "4Cs", and a guide for facilitating civil discourse in the classroom following the passage of SB1.
