The semester-long activities, team exercise centeredaround a book and individual project on a real-world ethical situation with the integration oflistening exercises and ethical theory were among other influential components.The course in fact provided and continues to provide various opportunities for emotionalengagement and imaginative understanding of ethical reasoning even though developingimagination is not one of the major objectives of the course. As one of the students noted in thesurvey, we administered in 2020, “I think moral imagination is the unspoken ultimate objectiveof the class.”Reimagining
