Curriculum

Dive deep into the topics defining the future.

  • How have innovations from the printing press to Artificial Intelligence reshaped society, and what new challenges have they created?

  • What is humanity's role and responsibility in an ever-evolving world, and how do philosophical concepts intersect with current global issues?

  • What are the implications of complex ethical scenarios, and how do they influence decision-making across economics, culture, and global heritage?

Sample activities

  • Trick or Truth Turing Test

    Students challenge an AI that’s programmed to deceive, developing their problem-solving skills as they learn to distinguish fact from fiction. This exercise sharpens critical thinking and offers a deep dive into the ethical implications of artificial intelligence.

  • Moral Minecraft

    In this session, learners tackle a range of fundamental philosophical questions. They’ll construct and communicate their views on identity and ethics, boosting their ability to think critically and engage in meaningful discussions.

  • The Trolley Problem

    Learners grapple with the Trolley Problem to evaluate moral dilemmas involving hypothetical life-or-death decisions. This activity focuses on strengthening their critical thinking and negotiation skills, as they articulate and defend their choices.

  • Reflective Walk

    Students take a quiet guided walk to reflect on the topics introduced in the course, using the natural environment to foster mindfulness and enhance their critical thinking. This exercise encourages thoughtful communication and personal insight away from digital distractions.
