Coming into the home stretch on Ethics Bowl to the Rescue! Saving Democracy by Transforming Debate, last-minute improvements include:
- Adding a chapter on Ethics Bowls in prisons (did you know Ethics Bowls are practiced in correctional facilities in at least 5 U.S. states? I didn’t!) – CHECK
- Adding a section on Ethics Bowls in retirement communities (one in Florida, where Jerry Seinfeld’s quirky parents retired, and another in New York, though six hours+ from Jerry, Kramer, Elaine, and George in Manhattan) – CHECK
- Adding around two dozen PICTURES (super thanks to Ethics Olympiad in Australia, APPE/IEB, Mount Tamalpais College at San Quentin, A2Ethics in Ann Arbor and others for permission to use them!) – CHECK
- Beefing up the chapter on Ethics Bowl improving test scores (Michael Vasquez and Michael Prinzing just released this study on philosophy improving test scores – gotta get it in there, and possibly something from the NHSEB imact studies) – PENDING – just sent an email to Michael V. this morning
So, almost done. To everyone who’s contributed, inquired, and patiently waited, thank you. Five years in the making. Just a few more days…
