教育目標

Our sense of who we are permeates every aspect of our life. This course explores how we develop a sense of self; how we navigate multiple identities, some of which may be conflicting or socially devalued; and how these identities affect both consciously and unconsciously our thoughts, motives, feelings, and behavior. Students engage with classical theories and contemporary research to gain insight into psychological perspectives on self and identity. This course allows students to answer, “Who am I?” from developmental and historical lenses. Through understanding the narratives around the development of the individual, the family, the clan, the ethnic/regional history, students develop a deeper sense of self-awareness with positive implication on identity and self-growth.

課程概述

In this course, we explore some of the historically important philosophical questions relating to the human person. This will include discussions about the existence (or non-existence) of free will; the question of what makes you the particular person you are; and the nature of the human (and non-human mind).
