Topics@Psychology #4: A Problem with the Concept of Freewill
An Introduction to the Freewill vs Determinism Debate from an unusual, counter-intuitive angle
Ideal to show as an extension to studying issues and debates.
The PPT slides progressively cover the Benjamin Libet argument and builds up to suggesting that we do not have any freewill, whatsoever!
Libet’s empirical argument is seductively simple, and should cause the student to question everything they believed about our freedom to choose.
THIS SET OF SLIDES ARE SELF-EXPLANATORY AND REQUIRES NO PRIOR KNOWLEDGE TO PRESENT
Consists of a PPT display (22 slides) with under slide comments linking to online videos; to supplement understanding. Within the slides are activities and things to think about.
You are welcome to amend, expand or reduce the display to suit your needs.
IF YOU DOWNLOAD THIS PRODUCT... I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE A REVIEW AND RATING (HELPS ME TO AMEND AND IMPROVE)... THANKS
