Presentations
Don Faust (Mathematics and Computer Science) presented "Some Observations on Scientific Epistemology with Applications to Conflict Resolution and Constructive Controversy" at the Universitas Indonesia in Jakarta, Indonesia. Judith Puncochar (School of Education, Leadership, and Public Service) followed Faust with a presentation titled "Promoting Citizenship Education with Structured Controversy in Indonesian Higher Education" and a workshop on structured controversy. The presentations and workshop occurred as part of a special one-day multidisciplinary seminar involving 104 participants (lecturers, professors and graduate students) from four disciplines: mathematics, geography, physics and psychology.
