  • Summary

  • If you have ever wondered about how education can improve us as people, then this is the episode for you. Paul Krauss MA LPC interviews Dr. Duncan Pritchard, Ph.D about a holistic method of learning "how" to think instead of just "what" to think. Learn more what Intellectual Virtues are and how they may help you and your organization flourish. In 2019, Duncan Pritchard Ph.D, Distinguished Professor of philosophy at the University of California, Irvine, launched a pilot program called “Anteater Virtues” – a series of interdisciplinary, faculty-led modules geared toward promoting a set of intellectual character traits – curiosity, integrity, humility and tenacity - that can help students develop into more inquisitive, open-minded and authentic individuals. Early results demonstrate that program participants show greater intellectual growth than their peers, with this positive effect stable across all the main demographic groupings. “Intellectual virtues promote ways of thinking, reasoning and seeking the truth. Learning intellectual humility, for example, can enhance open-mindedness and respect for other people’s opinions, whereas intellectual tenacity can improve students’ willingness to overcome intellectual obstacles,” Pritchard says. He adds that these skills are essential not only for academic pursuits, but also for navigating a daily life that’s increasingly online and often laced with misinformation and manipulation.
