Beyond Ethics Class

Danielle Fredette

With Dr. Danielle Fredette What's really important? This podcast is an outlet for my thoughts and questions: things I want my students to think about before they embark upon their adult lives as engineers and leaders in their communities, churches, and families. These are letters to my students, but everyone is welcome to listen in on our conversation.

    Ep. 12 Ethics in Stormlight Archive

    Welcome to Beyond Ethics Class! At the recommendation of a student several years ago, I've enjoyed reading the fantasy works of Brandon Sanderson. After making it through the newest volume of the Stormlight Archive while teaching the latest round of ethics class, I though it would be fun to discuss the ethical ideas brought out in the characters of the Stormlight Archive with some of my students who are also fans. Join us as we chat about the ethics of some of our favorite characters.

    Ep. 7: Onboarding for the Freshman Engineering Student: Dr. Gerry Brown

    Today I am speaking with my colleague Dr. Gerry Brown, who will share his advice for prospective college engineering students. Engineering school consists of a jam-packed curriculum full of challenging technical material and high academic expectations, which can create difficult hurdles for aspiring engineers. Knowing what to expect and getting ideas on how to cope could make or break a student's first year, and, therefore, his whole education and career options. If you or someone you love is thinking about giving engineering school a try, give us a listen. Bumper music by David Hyde.

    Ep 6: How the COVID Experience Changed Us

    Today I will share some of my thoughts on how the COVID experience changed me, changed us, and, perhaps, changed our society. I will review some of the big lies of the COVID-19 response, and things that have changed--the good, the bad, the diabolical, and the cautiously optimistic. Bumper music by David Hyde

    Ep. 5: Why DIE: Objective Reality

    Welcome to Beyond Ethics Class. This episode is a conversation about why we think a belief in objective reality is essential to an ethical philosophy consistent with Christianity. After my previous on-air conversation with my colleague Patrick Dudenhofer, I decided we should revisit some of the subtopics we overturned in more detail. The first one is this concept of objective reality. Bumper music by David Hyde
