The Fearology Institute: Introduction

Abstract

This short video by Dr. R. Michael Fisher, Founder, Director and Instructor of The Fearology Institute (2018- ) describes the interest and approach Dr. Fisher takes with students/learners as "peers." He invites all students to co-create and co-design their learning within the guidelines and design that Fisher offers in the program. He outlines the notion of "fearuality" as an essential component in thinking holistically-integrally about fear and our relationship to it. The I, We and It perspectives offer an expanding view and enhance the disciplinary study of fearology itself. Fisher arcs out the three main streams that students/learners can focus on in the program: Academic, Professional, Activist. Fisher can be reached thefearologyinstitute [at] gmail.com
