Teaching After April 16th

Category: Ethics Palace: Where ethical questions go to live or dieLinks to interesting sites and discussion of them
Posted on: April 23, 2007 10:55 AM, by Benjamin Cohen

Classes resume today in Blacksburg. Somehow.

A wiki site (here) has been created at Virginia Tech, but meant for all. This is the main cover page that leads to the wiki.

As Jane Lehr, who has posted the site, writes:

As we begin on Monday April 23rd to 'teach after April 16th', some of us may decide - at some point in the future - to explicitly address recent events in the content of our courses. Others may decide to more subtly explore issues raised by this tragedy. All of us are working to understand how we and our course materials and research might function as resources for our students and for ourselves.

I hope you might take a look and consider any contributions you can make.
