Live seminar courses
This Spring we are launching our first 'live seminar' courses - to the best of our knowledge, these are the only Philosophy courses with live group participation available to the general public. Both courses on offer are just 6 weeks long - designed to give students the opportunity to try out live philosophy seminar courses and see whether they are to their taste. They each cover three topics, one per fortnight. Our experience suggests that those who undertake evening classes have other commitments to balance alongside study, and appreciate a more leisurely pace.
The courses will provide a pre-recorded lecture one week and a live online seminar discussion with your lecturer and classmates the following week, covering the reading and the lecture. There will also be a forum where students can post and reply to others, moderated by the lecturer.
The reading, lectures, seminar and forum will all be accessible through Moodle - our online learning platform. Prospective students are advised they should have a reasonably fast computer and internet connection in order to fully participate in the course.
