Wisdom and Care: Decision Outcome Debates
Before we discuss this last unit’s material for this class, I wanted to apologize again for the inadequate Mind Map diagram posted in the last blog. We were able to visualize this diagram, and discuss it, in class but our Blog diagram needed help.
This last unit is we will be observing several teams’ decision outcome debates. Debate offers us the opportunity to research a topic in depth; promote our analytical thought processes; exercise our oral communication; articulate our professional opinions; encourage interaction between us; and increase our awareness of differing viewpoints (Bradshaw and Lowenstein, 2011). Please be mindful of the time and consideration each member of our class has put in to developing their decision outcome. Please use respectful communication when discussing points of views and decisions that are not the same as yours.
Several of you submitted excellent ideas regarding learning activities that could enrich our course content. We are now looking into a virtual world classroom for the development of a moral dynamics model and the space to observe the debates. It may take another semester or two for set up but it is in motion! Thank you.
