I. Description
• This is a project aimed to help people in their daily or unthinkable philosophical and practical problems by offering a set of answers for them to choose based on their preferences, as well as evaluating it for learning purposes. (Mobile Application)
II. Philosophical Principle/Theoretical Framework
• Enhancing meaningful learning by integrating real freedom in a structured design is central to this project. This project is mostly associated with Constructivism Learning Theory fostered by Dewey (1896); based on a Philosophy that knowledge is best receive as information that comes into contact with your existing knowledge that had been developed by experience. Teaching where you concentrate on the learner’s little knowledge and give them the freedom to shape it according to their own nature, thus creating a new knowledge. This theory has one of its roots in philosophy, for the reason that it values experiential learning highly, that knowledge is conditional to a person’s already adapted experience. The stated theory will look on your views in nature, your principle, personality, inherent qualities and other fully adapted conceptions; then the responsibility of learning must reside increasingly with the learner. This type of learning is creative, self-imposed, and much practical. By using this type of teaching, a learner is expected to arrive at their own version of truth, influenced by their background, culture and worldview. Take note that social interaction is a large factor of what kind of person they are now and even a child on its early age could adapt a certain thing through interaction, so uniqueness is valued
