Knowledge Paper I would be a great instructor for people who are learning how to use contact lenses. I struggled with trying to wear contacts for 6 years so I know every fear, concern, and issue with them. I posses knowledge on the teenage girl’s mind. I understand the insecurities, irrational thoughts, wants, needs, and fashion choices. The most vital knowledge I posses is my resources. My resources provide me a way to find out any information (to a certain extent) within seconds. I carry around my smartphone everywhere and use it daily to obtain knowledge. I have learned within the past week the hours to the bookstore, the location of the nearest Mexican restaurant, and how to do laundry.
The knowledge I need to posses changes and will continue to change based on my circumstances in life. As a kid, I needed to know the most effective way to eliminate zits. As a teenager, I found it necessary to know how to use liquid eyeliner. MapQuest via my iPhone became my best friend and most used resource. Since I have moved to Milledgeville, I had to learn the bus schedule.
This English class will help me obtain knowledge by teaching me how best to communicate my knowledge in an eloquent manner. It will also teach me how to use my resources scholastically and effectively. I use the Internet for social and entertainment purposes, but English class will force me to use it for assignments. These would include an online dictionary, thesaurus, grammar websites, and Google for research. Knowledge is key in college, so I need to learn how to utilize my resources.

    The study of knowledge has always been the journey toward truth and understanding. Epistemology deals with the creation and distribution of knowledge in certain areas of inquiry. Humans should be free to gain, study and question knowledge and claims without repercussions in any social, cultural or religious setting. As we move forward in our understanding of life, religion and nature, we have changed our way of thinking through philosophy. We are less ignorant and uneducated about the truths of the world and how we as human beings perform in it.…

    The knowledge that I have today would have been very useful in my past choices and decisions. I am, by no means, saying that I would change everything, as a few of the questionable decisions have defined me. I had tools in my toolbox; I just used a hammer, instead of maybe a screwdriver or wrench. I will explain how key individuals and experiences have contributed to my outlook on adult learning and that these same influences still are at work nudging me along into my future plans and goals.…

    Shared Knowledge

    • 901 Words
    • 4 Pages

    This brings up the concepts of personal knowledge and shared knowledge. Personal knowledge depends on the experiences of a particular individual because everyone is living life differently. On the other hand, shared knowledge is the product of more than one individual as it binds different ideas together. Shared knowledge is pretty much a collection of personal knowledge. For example, my personal knowledge is that Taylor Swift is the best singer of all time, but a shared knowledge would be Taylor Swift is a singer. Knowing this, the knowledge becomes the truth; however, it all depends on the individual. The individual must make the choice to believe in it or not. People cannot force others to believe in what they believe is true. Or can they?…

    Zong Qinghou was born in 1945 in Hongzhou during a turbulent period in China (Yang, 2004). Zong did not receive much formal education, thus he had various menial low paying jobs from 1963 to 1982, including jobs at the Zhoushang Salt Farm, the Luxing Farm, and a small paper carton factory. Like millions of other Chinese workers without many opportunities to earn a decent living, Zong dreamed of starting his own business. The opportunity came in 1986 after Zong returned to Hongzhou to take care of his mother who was sick. Zong got a job selling milk in a mini-grocery in a local school in the Shangchen District where his mother worked as a teacher. From this job, he identified opportunities. It was an era when the one child policy had just started. The only child became the apple of the entire family. Their parents and grandparents would generously spend more to make these small “kings” and “queens” healthy instead of spending on themselves. However, what they could buy in the market was rather limited. Zong saw the opportunity to produce milk drinks which were not common in China but were deemed as healthy, particularly for kids. Using the campus as his first testing ground, he started a business with two retired teachers and borrowed 140 000 Yuan (about $17,000 at that time; Yang, 2004)…

Therefore, since not everyone can be in a class like this, I will say this: I deserve a seat in this class. Not because I think I am better than the other candidates, but because I truly want to better myself, so someday, I can say that I am one of the best. I know…
