Online Resource Guide: Cultivating Good Minds

This resource guide, made available in 2015, was Jason Baehr’s first attempt to articulate the principles and practices involved with educating for intellectual virtues. He has since written a new book on the topic, Deep in Thought: A Practical Guide to Teaching for Intellectual Virtues (Harvard Education Press, 2021). While these two works cover some similar ground, Deep in Thought is more streamlined, incorporates more research and data from educational theory, psychology, and related fields, and reflects the latest insights gleaned from Baehr’s work with the Intellectual Virtues Academy of Long Beach and educators across the globe. You can learn more about Deep in Thought here. If you’d like to examine the online guide, you can do so here.
