PLATO Roundtable: Political Philosophy: Human Nature & Social Contract Theory
Ariel Sykes is the Director of Mindbridge Education. She is a member of PLATO's Board of Directors and has worked in the philosophy for children community for 17 years and specializes in dialogic teaching strategies, argumentation, and ethics instruction.
This roundtable is part of a PLATO series introducing educators to philosophy and will include a short reading.
The roundtable will examine Hobbes' view that humans are naturally self-interested and that without social contracts humans would be incapable of cooperating and flourishing. The discussion will engage topics that lend themselves well to high school History, Politics / U.S Government, English, and Psychology. We welcome educators with experience teaching Hobbes to join us and share their insights.
Reading: Leviathan Chapter 13

Roundtable: How can P4C Help Us Embrace Failure?
Dr. Sener's Philosophy for Children classes have been instrumental in my undergraduate experience at CSUB. I'm a philosophy major so I'm interested in the topic, but I also struggle with normal/casual conversations. Learning how to understand and engage in conversations like these has improved my interpersonal skills and has helped me develop a great appreciation for other opinions, along with helping me "do" and understand philosophy more as a student.
This is the clearest and most concise presentation of the basics of the IAPC P4wC approach that I’ve ever heard. Ariel is the best!
This was so helpful in understanding ways to integrate picture books with teaching philosophy. Thank you!
Thank You
Appreciate Debi! Liked the suggestion about using Jam Board during the online P4C session. I'll try it in my next session.
Wonderful! And thank you for providing this recording for those people that can’t watch it live due to time zones.
