Hey! Great show today. I'm studying to become a teacher and I hope to integrate creativity into my lesson plans all the time. Also, too bad the tuition for the Blue Man school is about 27,000 dollars! Anyway, being a university student can be very hard in a variety of aspects so I hope that when I'm a teacher, I don't forget what being a student and learning new things is like. Thanks everyone for your time and effort in making this show! What you guys are doing is awesome and I give you all props for speaking your mind and telling your personal stories. Great job :) I'll hopefully be tuning in next week (if I don't have a ton of homework) and hope to call in to the show soon! Thanks again, godspeed on your journey through the dimensions of philosophy and ethics! ~Anna Spencer

Ethics Talk: Philosophy, Flourishing and The Good Life  

Socrates said that talking about virtue and the good life is one of the most important things a human being can do. That's where "Ethics-Talk" fits in. Housed in the Department of Philosophy and Religion at Central Michigan University (CMU), The Center for Professional and Personal Ethics brings you discussions about ethical issues, both pure and applied. For us at EthicsTalk -- "ethics" is broad and encompasses things that affect a human being's flourishing. To that end, students working with the Center discuss ethics-related topics such as academic integrity, intrinsic motivation, procrastination, and cultivating self-regulation and other powerful habits. Additionally, we discuss study and motivational strategies related to intimidating endeavors such as studying for the bar exam. We are also very interested in how technology can either promote or hinder flourishing and discuss "media ecology" issues including the thought of Walter Ong and the concept of "digital virtue". In addition to our student produced show, scholars, authors and practitioners (such as Michael Strong, Anya Kamenetz, Lindsay Hyde, Thomas Farrell and Dr. Jeffrey Wigand) discuss ethics related issues with the Center's Director. To learn more about the Center, visit us at http://ethics.cmich.edu and follow us on twitter at: http://www.twitter.com/ethicstalk. ******************************************IMPORTANT NOTE: THIS FEED comes from BLOGTALKRADIO and does not include our complete archives. So we set up ANOTHER itunes feed which has the complete archives. thereafter. To access the COMPLETE archives, go to itunes, search for "ethics talk" and click on the hedgehog. Oh, and we like the hedgehog for the same reason that Jim Collins does.

Show Notes

Housed in the Department of Philosophy and Religion at Central Michigan University, The Center for Professional and Personal Ethics brings you discussions about ethical issues, both pure and applied. Ethics Talk is a weekly internet radio broadcast run by college students working with the Center for Professional and Personal Ethics at Central Michigan University. We focus on ethics related issues that affect college students. And by "ethics" we mean "ethics" in the sense that the ancient Greeks understood the word: i.e., of or pertaining to the good life or eudaimonia. We are all searching for it, right ? An "ethical issue," we believe, is any issue that can help us to realize our own flourishing, eudaimonia, enlightenment etc. So we talk about all kinds of ethical issues, including education, depression, motivation, procrastination, etc. Each week we incorporate research into our discussions in order to generate an intelligent discussion about stuff that matters. So check us out! And if you have an idea for a show, drop us a line here or at our website: http://ethicstalk.cmich.edu.

After discussing a number of different philosophical theories (determinism, compatibilism, chaos theory), we will also discuss the importance of agency.
