I wonder what #academics, #teachers, and specifically #PhilosophyTeachers think about regarding essays upon request.

I tend to think that if a student requests a regrade it's possible they will do *worse* on the regrade than the original (not necessarily, but possible)--I wonder if people have different policies.

Any A-level philosophy students (or teachers) out there struggling with the AQA spec and it’s key-terms that have no glossary - behold: https://philosophy-gets-schooled.podbean.com/e/pgs-key-terms-bonanza/ This latest podcast episode focuses on all the key terms you need to know for the exams, explained with clarity and hopefully humour by myself, Ben Jones, and host, Simon Kirchin.

Philosophy teachers, how do you explain to your students the logic behind the different formulations of Kant's categorical imperative?

Usually I focus on the first and the second formulations : the universalizability principle and the inherent dignity of every person.

How do you explain why there are different formulations? What logical structure do you use to go beyond simple enumeration?

I created http://www.philosophyunleashed.com in 2019, to give myself and my #students space to #write some #philosophy about things beyond their #school exam curriculum. A new essay is posted every Monday during term-time and there's over 130 already up there. It's a completely free #education resource for #PhilosophyStudents and #PhilosophyTeachers, non philosophy #teachers and anyone wanting to read some interesting philosophy stuff.

This week's post is about this place, #Mastodon and observations about #Twitter colonisation (including my own part in this) https://www.philosophyunleashed.com/theblog/136-no-gods-no-master-dons-decolonising-twitter-migration I'd love you to check it out and share any thoughts.
