Empathy - Potential and Practice | Brown University - 2 views

  • Our habit of perceiving the world as best suits our interests often blinds us to others' perceptions and impairs our ability to work with them to resolve conflicts peacefully.
  • Designing a course that listens to "other voices" of history and the present day and employs empathy allows students to come to a better understanding of history and current events. This approach will develop an appreciation for the complexities of history and social affairs. Upon learning these complexities students will be more engaged in analyzing the perceptions, stances, and experiences of the many related peoples of history and the present world.
