Idealism presentation
Idealism is a philosophy that believes that the objects we perceive through our senses are actually ideas that exist within the mind rather than independent material objects. It holds that reality consists of ideas and the physical world is either mental construction or a product of perception. Idealism pursues elevated ideals and conduct by envisioning things in their ideal form and pursuing one's ideas and ideals through art, life goals, relationships, and religion. However, it raises issues around distinguishing perception from reality and whether sense data corresponds to real external objects.

Comparison between realism and idealism
The study of international relations takes a wide range of theoretical approaches
Some emerge from within the discipline itself; others have been imported, in whole or in part,
from disciplines such as economics or sociology. Indeed,
few social scientific theories have not been applied to the study of relations amongst nations. Many theories of international relations are internally and externally contested, and few scholars believe
only in one or another.
In spite of this diversity, several major schools of thought are
discernable, differentiated principally by the variables they emphasize
eg military, power, material interests, or ideological beliefs
Idealism and realism (educ. 301)
The document compares the philosophies of idealism and realism in education as espoused by Plato and Aristotle. Plato's idealism holds that ideas are the only truth and that knowledge is derived independently of sense experience, focusing on developing students intellectually and morally. Aristotle's realism believes that physical matter is the ultimate reality and that knowledge comes from observing the natural world, aiming to teach essential facts and skills to understand nature. Both philosophies view education as developing the individual but emphasize different approaches and priorities.
idealism
The document discusses the aims and process of an idealist-inspired education. It outlines three main aims as the search for truth, self-realization, and character development. It states that the educative process in an idealist education is centered around ideals that are the ultimately real foundation. The teacher is central to the idealist pattern of education and plays a key role in setting the character of the environment and organizing subject matter. An idealist teacher should personify reality for students, have expertise in learning, command respect, be a friend to students, and awaken their desire to learn.
Idealism in education
The document discusses idealism in education through several topics:
1. The rationale for schools is that they provide a cultural and social setting necessary for humans to fully develop as social beings.
2. The teacher plays a key role by setting the learning environment and bringing out ideas in students' minds to help them progress to new levels of understanding and ultimately be transformed.
3. The objectives of education include helping individuals and society by cultivating harmonious personalities, sharing cultural heritage with youth, and embracing ideals that benefit both self and community.
Idealism vs Realism
This document compares and contrasts idealism and realism. It discusses:
1) Idealism, established by Plato, asserts that matter does not exist and reality consists exclusively of ideas constructed by the human mind.
2) Realism, established by Aristotle, claims that objects outside the mind have independent existence regardless of human perception.
3) The document argues against idealism by claiming that if an idealist philosopher was falling from a plane without a parachute fastened, they would have to acknowledge physical reality to survive, and that Darwin's theory of evolution shows reality existed before the human mind evolved to contemplate it.

Intro to Philo 1.pptx
Here is a possible response to the assignment question:
Yes, I believe philosophy remains important even in this age of globalization for a few key reasons:
1. Philosophy cultivates critical thinking skills. In a world where we are constantly bombarded with information from diverse sources, it is important to have the ability to carefully analyze arguments and viewpoints. Philosophy trains us to question assumptions and think rigorously and independently.
2. Philosophy addresses fundamental human questions. Globalization has connected the world in many ways, but it has also led to a clash of cultures and values.

Idealism of philosophy-1.pptx philosophy of education
Idealism is a philosophy that believes reality is fundamentally mental or spiritual rather than physical. It originated with ancient Greek philosophers like Plato and Socrates and was further developed by leaders like Berkeley and Hegel. Idealists view the mind and ideas as more important than physical matter. They believe education should focus on developing students' character, spirituality, and ability to think critically about ideas rather than just conveying facts. Teachers are seen as role models who help students discover truth through questioning and discussion rather than simple information transfer.
1. world philosophies
Idealism focuses on ideas as the only true reality. The aim of education is to discover each student's abilities through subjects like literature and philosophy using Socratic dialogue. Character is developed by imitating heroes.
Realism believes reality exists independently of the mind. The focus is on physical objects and truth that can be observed. The curriculum emphasizes science and mathematics. Character is developed through rules training.
Pragmatism sees reality as experience. Students learn best by applying knowledge to problems. Schools emphasize social experience and group work. Character develops through group decision making. Curriculum brings disciplines together to solve problems.
Idealism
Idealism is a philosophical approach that views ideas as the only true reality. It focuses on conscious reasoning and pursuing universal truths, justice, and beauty. Plato was an early proponent of idealism, believing that there is a perfect spiritual world of ideas and an imperfect sensory world.

Teaching methods emphasize discussion and questioning to help students discover knowledge latent within their own minds.

Transfer pricing
This document discusses transfer pricing, which refers to the price charged between divisions of the same organization for goods or services. The objectives of transfer pricing include evaluating divisional performance and profitability, improving profits, ensuring optimal resource allocation, and providing information to management. Common transfer pricing methods are total cost, marginal cost, standard cost, market price, and negotiated price. Each method has advantages and disadvantages related to divisional incentives, profit measurement, and treatment of fixed and variable costs. Transfer pricing aims to balance divisional autonomy with overall organizational goals but can also cause conflicts between divisions.
Pragmatism on education
This document discusses the philosophy of pragmatism. It was founded by Charles Sanders Pierce in the late 19th century and its chief exponent was William James. Some key principles of pragmatism are that theories or beliefs are true if they work effectively, there are no absolute truths as values change over time and place, and the goal of education is to meet personal and social needs rather than have a single aim. Pragmatism advocates for an activity-centered and practically useful curriculum, discipline developed through self-experience, and teaching methods focused on experience.
Bruner on education
Jerome Bruner was an American psychologist known for his work on cognitive development and learning theory. He proposed three modes of cognitive development - enactive, iconic, and symbolic. Bruner advocated for discovery learning, where students learn through active engagement by exploring and experimenting. However, discovery learning also presents some challenges like ensuring students test hypotheses properly.
Bruner developed an instructional theory model called the Concept Attainment Model. This model involves presenting students with positive and negative examples (exemplars) of a concept and having them determine the attributes and rules that define the concept. It follows three phases - presentation of data, testing concept attainment, and analyzing thinking strategies. The teacher guides students in evaluating different strategies

Hull's Theory of Learning
Clark Hull developed a drive-reduction theory of learning that stated drives create arousal or tension that motivates behavior to reduce the drive, and learning occurs through conditioning when behaviors are associated with drive reduction. His theory proposed several concepts including habit strength, reaction inhibition, and effective reaction potential to explain learning quantitatively. Although influential, Hull's theory faced criticisms for not fully explaining real-world behavior and inconsistencies in its predictions.
