So, you want a course outline. Well, these typically are an issue of intellectual property, although learning objectives are determined by Senate. An example of learning objectives for a course in philosophy would be:

All students will be able to

  • identify a minimum of four philosophers in each of the ancient, medieval, enlightenment, and modern time frames 100% of the time
  • identify at least three significant contributions of three philosophers in each of the ancient, medieval, enlightenment, and modern time frames 100% of the time
  • identify two substantial points of criticism of three philosophers in each of the ancient, medieval, enlightenment, and modern time frames 100% of the time
  • identify through the creation of a 2000 word essay one philosopher of personal interest to them and be able to compare and contrast basic thinking with one philosopher in two of ancient, medieval, enlightenment and modern time frames, using APA style and citing significant sources.

In a twelve week course, students will work their way through readings, discussions, short assignments, presentations and viewing of media of relevance. All assignments are due on time, exceptions need to be discussed with the professor.
