24 videos • 1,610 views • by PennLPS Welcome to Penn's Neuroethics Open Educational Resource (OER). The Neuroethics OER offers lectures, readings and other content covering key topics in neuroethics. Some site visitors will want to progress through the entire course in the order presented, while others will prefer to browse and sample. Whatever your approach, we hope you find the site interesting and informative! The Neuroethics OER consists of 11 full lectures and two panel discussions of about 45-60 mins each, along with 3 shorter opinion lectures of about 15 minutes each, covering specific issues from a more personal perspective. Lecture slides are available for all full lectures. You are free to use this material in your own teaching, but please credit the lecturer and Penn's Neuroethics OER. Although the videos can be used on their own, you can deepen your understanding of neuroethics with recommended readings, which are downloadable from the Neuroethics OER. The Neuroethics Open Educational Resource is a free resource developed from materials used in Neuroethics Learning Collaborative (NLC). The NLC was developed at the University of Pennsylvania's Center for Neuroscience & Society, with support from the National Science Foundation. Penn's College of Liberal and Professional Studies helped implement the NLC as a hybrid classroom-online course designed to serve multiple institutions and encourage discussion among their neuroscience graduate students through social networking technology. The course was offered collaboratively with the University of Wisconsin's Neuroscience and Public Policy graduate program and the London School of Economics. With more people seeking to learn through Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), we decided to offer an open version of the NLC: the Neuroethics Open Educational Resourse.
