The Center for Ethics and Human Values now offers an asynchronous training via Scarlet Canvas:
The 4Cs: Virtues of Civil Discourse
By introducing the 4Cs of civil discourse — Be Curious , Be Charitable, Be Conscientious, and Be Constructive — this training will help you build civic trust through improved mutual understanding and shared problem-solving, even when you disagree strongly on contentious social and political issues.
Produced by CEHV in partnership with the College of Arts and Sciences Office of Distance Education, this training is free and open to everyone: students, educators, and citizens alike.
This training will be useful for instructors who wish to provide a framework for civil discourse in the classroom.
If you have questions, or would like to partner with CEHV on civil discourse work, please reach out to our Civil Discourse Program Director, Dr. Kathryn Joyce (joyce.173@osu.edu).
