BC Interior Regional Ethics Bowl

October 30, 2024 at 6:10 pm  Education, Kamloops, News

The Ethics Bowl is both a collaborative and competitive event where teams of high school students from grades 9-12 teach and learn from one another as they compare bold strategies and take part in courageous conversations about ethical dilemmas such as automated moral decision-making, sexting and climate change refugees.

Participants imagine, criticize, compare bold strategies and amend their original positions when faced with convincing arguments.

The unique dynamic of the ethics bowl where students pose and respond to probing questions emphasizes the skills of communication and collaboration in the following areas:

  • critical thinking
  • active listening
  • articulation and expression
  • open-mindedness, and
  • respectful dialogue and disagreement.

The ethics bowl meets all six core competencies of the BC Curriculum, and helps foster an engaged, dynamic, and resilient intellectual community among students, teachers and professors.
