Linda Carozza
Email: lcarozza@yorku.ca
Dr. Carozza’s academic background is in Argumentation Theory; her current interests have grown and are interdisciplinary in nature. She advocates for emotional arguments. As a mediator her experience informs her argumentation research. Her passion lies in the classroom with students - teaching critical reasoning. Teaching in the MODR program within the Department of Philosophy is a daily reminder of philosophy put into real practice, and one of Dr. Carozza’s greatest joys is receiving emails from students about the usefulness of MODR courses in their personal lives and careers. She is a new co-author of the 6th edition of Good Reasoning Matters! (forthcoming 2023, Oxford University Press).
Having taught in blended and online formats since 2012, Dr. Carozza has formally studied e-learning. She founded an E-learning Community of Practice on campus in 2019 that includes instructors and educational staff from across different faculties at York University. She has several publications on the topic of digital pedagogy.
