Part of the sequence: Rationality and Philosophy Hitherto the people attracted to philosophy have been mostly those who loved the big generalizations, which were all wrong, so that few people with exact minds have taken up the subject. Bertrand Russell I've complained before that philosophy is a diseased discipline which spends far too much of its time debating definitions , ignoring relevant scientific results , and endlessly re-interpreting old dead guys who didn't know the slightest bit of 20th century science. Is that still the case?
Properly, we should read for power. Man reading should be man intensely alive. The book should be a ball of light in one’s hand. – Ezra Pound
Program "Artes Liberales" powstał po kilkuletnich pracach przygotowawczych prowadzonych z udziałem wykładowców i ekspertów ze Stanów Zjednoczonych. Nawiązuje on do core curriculum College'u w University of Chicago oraz do programów amerykańskich colleges of liberal arts and sciences (kolegiów sztuk wyzwolonych). Wciąż zmieniamy go i udoskonalamy m.in. we współpracy z partnerami amerykańskimi, do ktorych należą czolowe koledże i uniwersytety, a także wspierające nas organizacje i fundacje, zwłaszcza Association of American Colleges and Universities oraz Christian A. Johnson Endeavour Foundation. Program jest jednak oryginalnym rozwiązaniem, propozycją nowego kierunku interdyscyplinarnych studiów ogólnokształcących, których potrzebą coraz częściej dostrzega się w Polsce.
Nauczyciele, rodzice i cała rzesza "mądrych" powtarzają uczniom w kółko jedną uniwersalną radę: "trzeba się uczyć!". Jednak pytanie "jak się uczyć?" pozostaje najczęściej bez odpowiedzi. Jeśli już ktoś, przyparty do muru zdobędzie się na jakąś sugestię, to nie wykracza ona poza banalne - "na jak to? - weź do ręki książkę i zakuwaj...".
Personal knowledge management (PKM) is a collection of processes that a person uses to gather, classify, store, search, retrieve, and share knowledge in his or her daily activities ( Grundspenkis 2007 ) and the way in which these processes support work activities ( Wright 2005 ). It is a response to the idea that knowledge workers increasingly need to be responsible for their own growth and learning. ( Smedley 2009 ) It is a bottom-up approach to knowledge management (KM), as opposed to more traditional, top-down KM. ( Pollard 2008 ) [ edit ] History and Background Although as early as 1998 Davenport wrote on the importance to worker productivity of understanding individual knowledge processes (cited in ( Zhang 2009 )), the term personal knowledge management appears to be relatively new. Its origin can be traced in a working paper by Frand and Hixon ( Frand & Hixon 1999 ).
Note-taking is one of those skills that rarely gets taught. Teachers and professors assume either that taking good notes comes naturally or that someone else must have already taught students how to take notes. Then we sit around and complain that our students don’t know how to take notes. I figure it’s about time to do something about that. Whether you’re a high school junior or a college senior or a grad student or a mid-level professional or the Attorney General of the United States, the ability to take effective, meaningful notes is a crucial skill.
One of the things that we expect you to pick up by osmosis, but almost never mention explicitly, is techniques for learning itself. After you leave university, you will be expected to be able to learn by yourself for the rest of your life. And an hour spent addressing the meta-issue of learning skills pays off in reduced time to actually learn. A lot of work has been done over the past few decades about how people learn. This document suggests a wide range of techniques that may make your learning more effective.
