Topic = Plato
In my AS year, I thought I would upload my revision notes I made and see what happened.
Yes, I bombed. So I stopped
So now that I am in my A2 year, things are a lot more challenging so I thought I should give it another go.
What do you think?
It would be helpful if you left a comment and thank you !
Put your Hands on the Plough: And Never Look BackPeter Anyebe
Given a paradigm shift in which there are four, 4 realms of existence that include spirit, soul, mind, and matter rather than the current one, 1 realm that includes only matter; the possibility of causal openness and closure become apparent.
Thus energy exists in all four, 4 realms, but in different forms, to describe an open system that allows the free movement of energy between the realms.
In the spirit it is an idea, in the mind it is objectivity, in matter it is procedure, and in the soul, power.
But the system is also closed, to the extent that it obeys reciprocity, continuity, and conservation, for maturity.
An Analysis of the Phenomena That Have Led Some Philosophers to Introduce the...inventionjournals
The standpoint that all observable phenomena in the universe are fitting inestimable material for science if they are studied by the scientific method is basically positivistic. All things and facts which can be immediately learned by observation, together with their relationship and uniformities which is discoverable by reason without exceeding the limit of empirical observation, are designated as positivism. In positivism the belief in the sensory observation of empirical phenomena, that is empiricism – therefore plays a predominant part. Methodologically therefore positivism is in controversial opposition to the metaphysical abstraction of traditional of traditional philosophy. The term metaphysical is applied to everything that aims to go beyond the sphere of empiricism and seek the hidden essence of phenomena or the ultimate cause of things

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2. Plato
He believed that we carry a paradigm (or example) of an object. The tangible
objects of this world are imperfect imitations of these paradigms. These are the
forms.
The answer to the question What is a Dog can be answered in terms of the
essential nature of a dog - its dogginess.
The Ultimate Form is the Form of the Good. An understanding of the Good
allows everything else to be valued. While we can carry out good acts in this
world, they are a pale imitation of the perfect good that exists as an ideal in the
world of ideals.
So What?
Later Philosophers took Plato's idea of the Form -
The idea that there is a Perfect Good can translate into the idea of a
¡
God.
Plato's idea of the Perfect Good is also relevant to the argument
¡
about the nature of Evil -
Some believe that evil is simply an absence of Good - Absolute
Good exists as a perfect ideal, but Absolute Evil is not the
opposite. It is not an objective force, but rather a lack of
something, rather like a vacuum.
The concept of the Form as a transcendent, distant thing to be
¡
imitated, or of a thing that participates in the objects in the physical
world, has implications for thinking about the nature of God. If God
is transcendent, how can He affect the world. If God participates is
the world, can He be omnipresent (everywhere), omnisient (all
knowing) c.
