If you haven't identified classmates to work with but do have a topical preference, go ahead and indicate that in a comment below; if you're interested in a topic someone else has posted an interest in, find them and get together in class to discuss your collaboration. Make sure to coordinate with your colleagues and avoid redundancy.
A bonus run to each member of the group in each section that volunteers to go first, on Feb 11.
Prior to your scheduled presentation date, a member of your group will post a brief summary of what each of you will be presenting along with a short quiz (3-4 questions) over the contents of your presentation and/or anything you've assigned for us to look at in advance, AND at least a couple of discussion questions. Go over your quiz and discussion questions at the end of the presentation. Lead discussion. Tell us something more about your topic than we've read in our assigned texts. Good sources include the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy and the Stanford Encyclopedia. (See "Look it up" in the sidebar.) Better still, check out the philosophy section up on the 2d floor of the library.
Each of you should speak for about five minutes on your topic. You may prepare audio-visual aids (powerpoint etc.) if you wish, but please be prepared to take us outdoors if it happens to be a nice day.
Have fun!

ReplyDeletedid anyone post this??
DeleteI've seen stuff like it before, it might just be a bot (Despite the fact that you have to do an hour of captchas to post here...). They have 1k profile views and have been on blogger for a bit, if you click their name. Maybe it's someone who goes around and posts spam manually (Given the time of day they posted it, it's eastern hemisphere). I doubt its someone in our class
DeleteIt wasn't. If you guys spot any of these that I've missed, please let me know so I can zap 'em.
