MCHS/Site Visit Team

MCHS/Site Visit Team

POP's Muncie Central High School/Site Visit team is responsible for facilitating discussions at Muncie Central High School's weekly philosophy club meetings, as well as coordinating site visits to Indiana high schools.

The aim of both of these forms of outreach is to make philosophy more accessible to high school students. Leading the MCHS philosophy club is one way that POP has been able to achieve this goal within the local community. POP aims to encourage the high school students to guide the conversations. This allows for an increased level of engagement, creativity, and philosophical dialogue amongst students. 

POP also aims to achieve the goal of making philosophy more accessible by visiting Indiana high schools and facilitating conversations on a wide variety of philosophical topics. Ball State students work with high school teachers and club leaders to provide tailored presentations for specific schools.

Due to COVID-19, both the MCHS philosophy club and site visits have been taking place virtually, via Zoom. The POP team has worked hard to provide an engaging and fun experience for high school students over this platform. It's taken creativity and patience, but over the past several months, the POP team has successfully adapted to the challenges of virtual learning.
