Educating for Intellectual Virtues: From Theory to Practice

Name: Work Video:
Duration: 3 min 30 s
Description: After a brief overview of what intellectual virtues are, I offer three arguments for the claim that education should aim at fostering ‘intellectual character virtues’ like curiosity, open-mindedness, intellectual courage, and intellectual honesty. I then go on to discuss several pedagogical and related strategies for achieving this aim.
