In 2013 the philosophy department at San Jose State University stood almost alone against its own administration, a group of opportunist politicians, and a well funded high-tech start-up who were all attempting to destroy university education as we know it by pushing Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). In the aftermath of this modern day academic stand at Thermopylae a member of the department conducted his own reflections on the art of teaching while at the same time documenting the MOOC controversy. Here is a collection of essays on teaching born out of a real educational crisis, along with an inside perspective on the ongoing fight against MOOCs (large print).

Autorenporträt
John C. Wilhelmsson is a professor of philosophy at San Jose State University. As a professor John is known for his thoughtful and independent interpretations and intuitive teaching style. Born and raised in San Jose California John became interested in having a career in philosophy after reading "Fides et Ratio" (Faith and Reason) by Pope John Paul II. He made Edith Stein the focal point of his research because John Paul II mentioned her in this work. With the support of the fine professor of philosophy Richard Tieszen John began his research on Edith Stein. John was awarded his master's degree in 2007 and his thesis "The Philosophical Contributions of Edith Stein" was named best in his college and has now become the book "The Transposition of Edith Stein: Her Contributions to Philosophy, Feminism, and The Theology of the Body." He currently runs both "Chaos to Order Publishing" and "John's Lock & Key" while still teaching part-time at San Jose State University.
