Study Skill Talk
The document provides tips for effective studying. It recommends choosing a dedicated study space, allocating time for studying in sessions of 30 minutes to 4 hours with breaks every hour. Effective study strategies include being an active reader, asking questions, reviewing material, taking notes through lists, charts or diagrams, and studying in groups or using flashcards. Constant review is important for understanding new topics, and reflection on learning helps identify areas needing more review before moving to new subjects.
The Aims of Education
This document outlines Alfred Whitehead's philosophy of education, which emphasizes avoiding inert ideas and making learning meaningful. It discusses the three stages of learning - romance, precision, and generalization. The stage of romance involves exploring, discovering, and having hands-on experiences. The stage of precision involves learning subjects in small doses with precision. The stage of generalization involves applying what was learned and being prepared for life. The document concludes with discussing crayon and issues essay activities relating to these three stages.
Introduction to humanities 2 philosophy
This document provides an introduction and overview for a philosophy course. It outlines the course goals of engaging students in critical reflection on philosophical issues such as the existence of God, the meaning of life, the problem of evil, and the nature of happiness. Students will explore these questions through examining their own beliefs and reasoning, learning the views of major philosophers, and discussing ideas with others. The course aims to help students develop skills in critical thinking, reading, writing, and evaluating philosophical arguments. Assignments will include homework, exams, and class participation. Specific policies are outlined regarding submitting assignments on time to receive credit.
Crayon learning tendencies
This document outlines the learning tendencies of crayon learners. They work best when given opportunities for experimentation, discovery, choice, and competition. They enjoy hands-on activities, brainstorming, and open-ended options. While creative and independent, they may struggle with time management, follow through, and accepting limits. As dynamic learners, they prefer variety, challenges, and thinking outside the box to routine tasks. Instructional activities like brainstorming, problem-solving, and experiments best match their strengths in visual/spatial, musical/rhythmic and bodily/kinesthetic intelligences.

It provides tips for improving chances of success, such as networking and customizing applications. Finally, it discusses traits of highly creative people and includes additional resource links.
Multiple intelligence
The document discusses multiple intelligences theory proposed by Howard Gardner, which posits that intelligence is not a single entity but rather manifests in different ways. It identifies eight types of intelligence - linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalistic. For each type of intelligence, examples are given of famous individuals who demonstrated strengths in that area, and suggestions are provided for how students with strengths in different intelligences may prefer to learn. The document also discusses four learning styles - mastery, understanding, interpersonal and self-expressive - and includes examples of students who demonstrate characteristics of each style.

The Common Core standards emphasize reading nonfiction texts and analyzing multiple perspectives. This represents a shift from the traditional focus on fiction and personal responses. To meet the standards, librarians must collaborate closely with teachers to provide resources across different subjects and media. Students need opportunities to compare how different sources discuss the same topics and evaluate evidence. The librarian can play a key role in helping students and teachers navigate this change by understanding the standards and building teams to coordinate resources.
Personal Statements
The document provides guidance on writing effective personal statements for university applications. It discusses why personal statements are important, tips for style and structure, things to include like relevant skills and experiences, and things to avoid like plagiarism. The document recommends spending time planning and drafting the statement, getting feedback, and focusing on showing enthusiasm for the subject rather than just listing achievements or interests. It also provides example personal statements and questions for applicants to consider to help strengthen their statement.

The concept of proof: how much trouble are we in?
The document discusses the concept of mathematical proof and debates around its nature. It argues that viewing proof as a Wittgensteinian family resemblance concept or cluster concept is insufficient, as mathematics is not just a collection of discrete language games. Rather, we have a single rich incoherent concept of proof. This presents difficulties for those who want to make ideological use of the concept or teach it. The document also examines statements from the "standard view" that proofs should be formal, and resistances to this position, for example that informal proofs provide understanding in a way formal proofs do not.

Anselm lived from 1033-1109 and was a monk at Bec Abbey and later Archbishop of Canterbury. He wrote philosophical and theological works to reconcile religious teachings with logic and reason. His ontological argument in the Proslogion was intended to provide a unified rational account of God's existence and attributes through a single definition. While the argument has received criticisms, understanding Anselm's broader context and intent helps in properly interpreting his argument rather than viewing it in isolation through a modern logical lens.
Unlikely bedfellows or unholy alliance.pptx
Lakatos demonstrates the possibility of philosophical hybridism by combining influences from Hegel, Pólya and Popper in his philosophy of mathematics, which seems unlikely but points to the eclectic nature of the philosophy of mathematical practice. The talk will discuss the tensions and synergies in Lakatos’s thought from his intellectual influences and migration, and illustrate the benefits of philosophical hybridism, including a robustness criterion. It will also discuss prospects for collaboration among various projects under the philosophy of mathematical practices.
Culture Lisbon 30 June 2022.pptx
The document discusses reasons why one may not take a cultural approach to mathematics. It outlines three main reasons: metaphysics, essentialism, and relativism. Under metaphysics, it discusses how naturalism cannot account for concepts essential to science like propositions, validity of arguments, and academic status. Under essentialism, it raises questions around what constitutes a culture and whether the concept of discrete cultures is problematic. And under relativism, it discusses how mathematics is associated with enlightenment values of rationalism that a cultural approach may contradict.
Palimpsest and Bricolage.pptx
This document discusses concepts in mathematics and philosophy that have multiple related meanings developed through history and practice.
It argues that concepts like "proof", "number", and "punishment" present not just one stable definition but a "synthesis of meanings" that has crystallized over time from diverse uses and cannot be fully analyzed by reducing to basic elements. Drawing on Nietzsche and Weber, it views the development of concepts not as revealing an essence but as a process of rationalization acting on a complex unity arising from varied practices.
The document also notes mathematics involves a "colorful mix of proof techniques" and that formalization programs are guided by this diverse landscape of practices rather than aiming for strict definitions. It
We are all in this together
This document summarizes two projects funded by the subject center at the University of Hertfordshire on friendship and collaboration among philosophy students. The first project found that students often see university as a solitary experience due to limited class time and warnings about plagiarism. The second project found that peer support schemes emphasize safety over intellectual risk-taking, and students do not see peers as a learning resource. It recommends that institutions explain the social nature of research, model collaboration, give permission to collaborate, and train students in collaborative skills to address these issues.
Religious language
This document discusses different philosophical approaches to analyzing religious language:
- The Vienna Circle proposed the verification principle, which held that sentences only have meaning if they can be empirically verified, raising issues for religious and ethical claims. Karl Popper proposed the falsification criterion as an alternative.
- Wittgenstein argued that language cannot be reduced to propositions and that different "language games" should be analyzed separately rather than by external criteria. However, religion makes broader truth claims than isolated practices like sports fandom.
- Religious language raises questions about whether cognitive or non-cognitive analyses best capture its nature and claims. Worshippers may interpret it in different cognitive or non-cognitive ways. Philosophers of religion
David hume and the limits of mathematical reason
Talk given at the January 2020 meeting of the Association for the Philosophy of Mathematical Practice (Zurich)
The material-ideal dyad of culture and the revolutionary materialism of pract...
According to Theodore R. Schatzki, theorists who study practices tend to view them as materially present and changing over history, rather than as determined by rigid abstract structures. This amounts to a revolutionary materialist perspective. The author will illustrate this perspective and discuss how it presents dilemmas for philosophers of mathematical practices. They will also argue that culture is better viewed as the expression of values in practices, rather than as distinct anthropological units, in order to understand cultural change and facilitate cross-cultural communication without falling into materialism or post-humanism.
On the unreasonable reliability of mathematical proof
This document summarizes Brendan Larvor's analysis of Jeremy Avigad's paper on the relationship between informal mathematical proofs and formal derivations. Larvor argues that Avigad's observations about how mathematicians write robust informal proofs actually support critics of the "Standard View". However, Avigad's paper fails to clearly define what constitutes an informal proof, oscillating between a "syntactic" view that reduces the Standard View to triviality, and a more promising "semantic" view. Larvor suggests Avigad should adopt the semantic perspective to better account for the value of mathematical logic and how informal proofs demonstrate reliability.
What virtues (zoom with eton june 2020)
The document discusses virtues exhibited by philosophers in the classroom. It notes that in the past, victory in philosophical arguments went to those who spoke with the greatest conviction, even if they lacked subtlety of mind. It questions what virtues academic staff believe they exhibit during live philosophy events and what students actually see. It argues that feeling like one could belong is important for success and happiness in education. The document considers the "signature pedagogy" of philosophy and how virtues like patience, trust, pride, humility, gratitude and forgiveness are needed for thinking together.

This document discusses different conceptions of culture as it relates to mathematical practices and mathematics education. It argues that there is no agreed upon definition of culture, and outlines some imperfect but commonly used definitions. It also notes a tension between the material and ideal aspects of culture that different conceptions manage differently. The document then examines how the concept of culture has been used and developed in the fields of mathematics education and studies of mathematical practices. It traces the historical and conceptual origins and evolution of these fields, including a social turn towards examining socio-cultural aspects. Ethnomathematics is discussed as having roots in post-colonial criticism and emphasizing different cultural approaches to mathematical learning and practices.
The logic(s) of informal proofs (vub)
This document discusses informal proofs in mathematics. It argues that:
1) A mathematical proof is more than just a recipe for a formal derivation, as it establishes mathematical conclusions through rigorous but informal arguments.
2) Logic should be understood as the general study of inferential actions, as informal proofs involve actions on mathematical objects beyond just propositions.
3) Representations in mathematics are valuable not just for presenting information but for being manipulated, as inferences can be drawn through performing actions on diagrams, graphs, and other representations.
Matheamtical cutlures (bath june 15)
This document summarizes three conferences on mathematical cultures organized by Dr. Brendan Larvor of the University of Hertfordshire. The first conference focused on diversity in mathematical cultures and included talks on topics like mathematics in ancient China, the Russian tradition of mathematics, and mathematical practices in Brazilian engineering schools. The second conference centered on values in mathematics, with talks addressing concepts like purity, explanation, rigor and generality. The third conference covered additional topics related to mathematical cultures, such as mathematics in fiction, morality and mathematics, and mathematics education for indigenous communities in Western Canada.
Apmp brazil oct 2017
This document discusses informal mathematical proofs that appeal to diagrams and mental models. It proposes criteria for when such proofs can be considered rigorous: (1) the diagram must accurately portray the structure of the mathematical object, (2) the information in the diagram must not be metric, and (3) the inferences must be systematically related to other mathematical practices. The document also discusses how Manders' analysis of proofs in Euclidean geometry may provide a model for understanding contemporary proofs involving diagrams, but notes some challenges for philosophers in analyzing modern mathematical reasoning.
Philosophy and history (lodge07)
The document discusses different conceptions of history and its relationship to philosophy. It argues that focusing solely on formal logic leaves out important non-logical aspects of mathematics, including its social and historical dimensions. A new epistemology of mathematics should recognize the temporal nature of rationality and appeal to intellectual and social contexts rather than only general principles. Such an approach follows Bernard Williams' conception of history of philosophy as philosophically motivated rather than relying on rigid distinctions between the two fields.
Manifesto
Higher education aims to teach students values through reasoned discussion rather than just giving students what they want, as every model of education reflects assumptions about human nature and should be judged accordingly. While students may not fully understand higher education's purpose, its goal is to provide a common space for developing reason and imparting values that are necessary for further economic and career aims imposed by outside forces.
Is it irrational to be moved by the
We can feel genuine sadness and emotions in response to fictional stories and characters, even though we know they are not real. This seems paradoxical, as we do not truly believe anyone has suffered. Hume argued these emotions are pleasurable and come from our engagement with the author's artistry. However, Radford cannot reconcile how we can feel involuntary emotions for fictional things we know don't exist. He concludes our emotional responses to fiction involve an inconsistency.

Stepping up (branded)
- 1. Stepping Up Dr. Brendan Larvor www.herts.ac.uk/philosophy
- 2. Two Tasks • Getting in to university • Preparing for university
- 3. Be Interesting! • Universities like independent-minded curiosity • You will need ways to meet people • You will need skills that you may not develop sufficiently on your course So ... Maintain your extra-curricular interests!
- 4. Be Bookish • Always have a book on the go • Make a study of your extra-curricular activities • Write!
- 5. Become a Research Leader • You will have much less classroom time at university than at school • Exclusively solitary study is: 1. lonely and 2. Inefficient • Study-groups and discussions don’t happen by magic So ... Make them happen—start now
- 6. Yes but what is philosophy? LITERAL MEANING: A LOVE (philos) OF WISDOM (sophia) HONESTLY: A LOVE FOR PROBLEMS Philosophers are trained to identify, assess and not fear risks, but approach them with a positive problem-solving attitude. Philosophy identifies and evaluates background assumptions and frameworks
- 7. Typical Philosophical questions • How should we live our lives? • How should we treat others? • Are we machines? • What are the ethical implications of science and technology? • When is a society just and fair? • What is time? What counts as knowledge? What are the scope and limits of science? What is truth? How does language acquire its meaning? When is a reason a good reason? What is the relation of brains to minds?
- 8. Philosophy? What are you going to do with that? Any job that requires you • to think about and solve problems for which there is no established technique • to exercise your critical capacities to overcome disagreement and to build consensus • to evaluate and criticise the arguments of others • to offer convincing arguments to others • to manage persuasive communication • to organise and lead people
- 9. Philosophy Course Structure • Components • Options • teaching styles • Assessments • a typical week
- 10. What I wish every student knew before taking the course • You have to read philosophy slowly, carefully and repeatedly • With a notebook for quotations, summaries, questions and devastating critiques • Writing philosophy is difficult. Really.
- 11. Who was that? Dr Brendan Larvor Subject Leader for Philosophy b.p.larvor@herts.ac.uk 01707 285659 www.herts.ac.uk/philosophy
