According to the article, the research on happiness has showed that people may not really know
what things will make them happier. The opposite is also true. Similarly, from the course's students
perspective the decision what knowledge will benefit them most (=maximize happiness) may be tricky,
from course's staff perspective the selection of topics to be taught, and consequently studied by
students in such a way that will both provide them with valuable knowledge and make them happier
as a final result and also from the process of acquiring this knowledge itself is even more complicated.
There seems to be an inevitable conflict: valuable knowledge is usually demanding to understand,
perceived as boring by students and challenging to be taught by course staff.
What I propose is to hold an open discussion, lead by course staff in a friendly manner, to decide what
material should be taught and what is the best way to do it. I suggest using the E.I.V. framework to
make decisions instead of Maslow's hierarchy as proposed in the article. Maslow's hierarchy model has
received much criticism and some research results made it's framework doubtful.W
Warmest regards,
Ilya.
