This spring, I’m teaching two courses, Introduction to Ethics (Phil 2010; undergraduate lecture) and Experimental Philosophy (Phil 6000; graduate seminar).  Amazingly, I haven’t taught introductory ethics since it was the first course I ever taught (Su’01!), and I’m excited about the opportunity.  It’s a 125-person lecture that meets once a week (3+ hours), so I’m trying some new things, including the use of movies.  Hopefully it’ll work!  The graduate seminar owes to an NEH Summer Seminar I did at the University of Utah in Summer 2009; part of my application indicated that I’d teach this were I able to appreciate.  Experimental philosophy is evolving so quickly that even our readings of that summer almost seem dated, so it’ll be fun to read new stuff.  It’s also a chance to try out parts of my forthcoming book–with Shaun Nichols and Ron Mallon (Oxford, forthcoming)–in traditional readings in philosophy are complemented by exerimental ones; see the final proposal draft if interested.
