The course listed here is in philosophy. I teach college Math so I thought I'd mention, for the many tech-ish folks here, that there is a lot of interest in Math in classrooms of this kind, where active exploration is a prime goal. For instance, I teach a intro to proofs course (out of a book I wrote, http://joshua.smcvt.edu/proofs http://joshua.smcvt.edu/proofs) where students are given the definitions and theorems on the first day, and where the class consists of discussions that come to prove those results. It seems to me that students learn the material better, in part because they hear things that seem good but that more discussion shows are wrong and so they come to appreciate better what is right. I find this style of teaching to be a very good fit for this class because I like for future teachers of math to have a feel for what is not right as well as what is right. But, I admit, we don't cover as much material. This style is called Inquiry-Based, or Discovery-Based, or sometimes Moore Method (it has lots of variants). If you are interested then you can google any of those terms, or you could visit http://www.jiblm.org/ http://www.jiblm.org/, the Journal of Inquiry-Based Learning in Mathematics, for a collection of texts for various courses.
