Critical Thinking and Bioethics New
As scientists, skills of critical thinking are well developed in hypothesis testing, observation and scientific projects. This workshop will incorporate other modes of logic and reason into scientific thinking.
This workshop will consist of a set of debates on current bioethical issues. We will then analyse and evaluate the presence and impact of critical thinking within those debates
PLEASE NOTE: This course consists of two half day sessions, with a week between sessions.
