Introduction to Philosophy:

• four BIG IDEAS
  • Philosophy is a discipline that examines the fundamental nature of knowledge, reality,
    and existence.
  • Philosophy provides tools for investigating meaning and fostering understanding of different
    ways of thinking.
  • Examining questions in philosophy allows people to question their assumptions and better understand their own beliefs.
  • While philosophical questions often examine issues with no definitive
    answers, logic and reasoned arguments can show which answers have more or less value.
• ACTIVITY:
  • create a one-page representation of how you perceive YOUR Reality
    • what are your different roles
    • what are the activities/responsibilities that define those roles
    • what constraints or filters come with those roles
