Description

I am a fully independent educator running my classes (hosted on Teachable) through my own website.


What makes someone a good friend? When is it okay to tell a lie? How do you make a decision when people disagree? Can you ever really be a "good" person?

Ethical philosophy gives us a lot of questions but leaves us with many different answers.

The Good Place explores all these questions and more through the hilarious and heartwarming antics of a cast of unforgettable characters.

In this self-paced class, we'll watch The Good Place and use it as a way to dive deeper into philosophy. Whether you are a fan of The Good Place or have never seen it before, this class is set up to be enjoyable and informational for all.

Supplies Needed

  • Access to Season 1 of The Good Place 
  • PDF reader
  • Headphones/speakers for videos 
  • Tools (of learner’s choice) to create final project (such as PowerPoint, Google Slides, YouTube, etc.)

Suggested Ages: 11+ 

Suggested Length: 7 weeks

Schedule/Time Commitment: Learners can expect to spend about 4-5 hours a week on class materials including watching the episodes, filling out Viewing Guides, answering short essay questions, and watching discussion videos. The final project is open-ended and allows for learner choice and flexibility to make it fit into your goals and schedule.
