PHIL - Week 2 DB

In order to receive credit for these assignments (in general) you must do a number of things:

 

1. Have a post of at least 150 words on topic.

2. Contain one citation. (Do not worry about this for the first assignment)

3. Include the password I drop in the audio lectures (do not worry about this for this first assignment

3. It must use one of the WRAITEC (The goodthinker's toolkit) letters as a tool to prompt yourself. 

How does one use WRAITEC? It is rather straightforward; pick one of the letters (such as R for reasons) and focus on the reasons for Aristotle making this or that claim. Any letter can be used, but be sure to be clear which it is you are using (at least for these first couple weeks of class). 

For this week I want you to discuss how you 'know' things in your own field? Do you do a science field and use objective measurements? Are you an artist, and have to make value judgments? Are you a social scientist and make claims regarding how other people are acting? Regardless, how do you know the important aspects of your field? Which of these three thinkers do you agree with most? Why?

Field: Science (Nursing Major)

Three Thinkers: Plato, Aristotle, and Mozi.
