Philosophy 12
- Be ready for Tuesday's test on the introductory unit, What is philosophy?
- Finish all the questions from the introductory textbook questions.
- Review the reading from Kant on "What is enlightenment?"
- Review our class notes on the definition of philosophy, Socrates's death, and knowledge (epistemology).
- Are the questions for "If Hitler Asked..." finished?
- Complete a good copy of a paragraph - not an essay - that answers the following question: What is philosophy?
- Identify and prioritize the three most important issues/points that explain the nature of philosophy. I want quality, not quantity. :-)
- Your paragraph should be organized like a "Standard Body Paragraph".
- Format:
- 8-16 sentences
- no line breaks
- one indentation at the beginning
- best argument last
- 12 or 14 font/1.5 spacing
- Use any and all of our notes, brainstorms, and textbook readings, but be picky! You don't need to cover everything.
- No H18's! :-)
- It is due Thursday and will be marked on the 6 point scale out of 36. Send your paragraph to me via the Share function of Office 365.
- For next Wednesday, make sure you have three (3) labeled tab dividers with the following labels: Journal/Units/Applied Phil.
