Episode Four – Inquiry Busters

In this episode, I have a conversation with Anthony Verdino, staff social worker at the Counseling Center, in which we discuss generational differences in students, student mental health and its relationship to the classroom, and efforts on campus to appreciate gender diversity at UNCG. If the podcast episode inspires you to learn more about the Counseling Center, then you can follow this link to their FAQ. Also, consider encouraging your students to attend their free &amp; confidential workshops, especially if topics around sex and dating, 21st century technology and wellness, or medication would fit nicely with your learning outcomes – perhaps you could even give extra credit for a thoughtful write-up that links a workshop to course content!

Right now, billions of neurons in your brain are working together to generate a conscious experience -- and not just any conscious experience, your experience of the world around you and of yourself within it. How does this happen? According to neuroscientist Anil Seth, we're all hallucinating all the time; when we agree about our hallucinations, we call it "reality." Join Seth for a delightfully disorienting talk that may leave you questioning the very nature of your existence.

Your brain hallucinates your conscious reality | Anil Seth

Using examples from vacations to colonoscopies, Nobel laureate and founder of behavioral economics Daniel Kahneman reveals how our "experiencing selves" and our "remembering selves" perceive happiness differently. This new insight has profound implications for economics, public policy -- and our own self-awareness.

Michael Sandel explores the philosophical justifications made for national borders. Using a pioneering state-of-the-art studio at the Harvard Business School, Professor Sandel is joined by 60 participants from over 30 countries in a truly global digital space.

These are just some of the questions addressed by Professor Sandel in this first edition of The Global Philosopher.Audience producer: Louise ColettaProducer: David EdmondsEditor: Richard Knight(Image taken by Rose Lincoln)
