Bonjour Madame Ulric Collette | Portraits génétiques PARK & CUBE Mozilla Firefox Thebault Marc | Pensées, humeurs et techniques de com publique, entre autres … Major Movements in Philosophy as Minimalist Geometric Graphics by Maria Popova From relativism to absolutism, or what the geometry of knowledge has to do with negative space. I have a soft spot for minimalist graphic representations of complex concepts. (Previously: famous lives in pictogram flowcharts; famous personalities in vector illustrations; famous songs as typographic reductions; world statistics as minimalist infographics; anticonsumerist aspirations.) And it hardly gets more complex than the entire school of Western philosophy. Relativism Points of view have no absolute truth or validity, having only relative, subjective value according to differences in perception and consideration. Absolutism An absolute truth is always correct under any condition. Positivism The only authentic knowledge is that which is based on sense, experience and positive verification. Empiricism Knowledge arises from evidence gathered via sense experience. Humanism Hedonism Pleasure is the only intrinsic good. Solipsism Holism Authoritarianism Scepticism Determinism
Greta, We Like You (Alot) | Turned Out A Quick Fashion History Lesson Photo credits:1, 2, 3, 4, 5 So many of you discussed your love for vintage clothing in the comments section of my previous posts, which made me smile from ear to ear because I love history. I think it’s important to understand how fashion has evolved and why it has changed over the years. So I am going to go through the decades starting with the 1920s through 1990 and talk about what was popular in the world of fashion.

Some of the trends included drop waists, long necklaces, hats, and pastel and muted colors.

Apprendre à apprendre L'essentiel à savoir pour réussir sans travailler plus mais mieux. "notre chance d’avenir repose sur ce qui fait notre risque présent : le retard de notre esprit par rapport à ses possibilités" Edgar Morin, dans La méthode, tome 3 : La connaissance de la connaissance Si la capacité à apprendre est innée, car dans la nature du cerveau, le "savoir apprendre", qui favorise la réussite et mène à une véritable autonomie, est une compétence complexe qui nécessite d'acquérir une méthodologie d'apprentissage, et d'accepter de modifier ses représentations sur l'apprentissage, et parfois même ses représentations de soi. Tout apprentissage est une transformation profonde, il faut changer pour apprendre et on change en apprenant. Insolite à l'université ? Non, si constatant l'importance de l'échec scolaire, et reconnaissant les limites de l'enseignement traditionnel de type transmissif, le système éducatif repense les notions d'enseignement-apprentissage pour offrir les meilleures chances à chacun.
