Simpson’s and Philosophy In the chapter Thus Spake Bart: On Nietzsche and the Virtues of Being Bad‚ Mark T. Conard shows us why people believe Bart Simpson is similar to a philosophical theorist named Friedrich Nietzsche. Bart being the bad boy of the Simpson’s and Nietzsche being the bad boy of Philosophy. Conard says that Bart does not take on the chaos like Nietzsche says but he is just an empty being of bad actions. This argument is ridiculous; Bart Simpson is as creative as creative gets

My Philosophy of Teaching As I begin these reflections about teaching‚ I am reminded of one of Mark Twain’s dictums‚ "Don’t let schooling get in the way of education." I think that the goal of educating university-level students can only be achieved by presenting them with more than lectures‚ rote memorization tasks‚ and straightforward projects (i.e.‚ traditional schooling). In other words‚ an educator must move beyond the traditional model of schooling to a point at which students can learn effectively

is the study of the essence of being‚ or in other words‚ an exploration of the nature of reality and existence. In fact‚ you might find it helpful to mentally substitute the word existence or reality whenever you see the word being discussed in philosophy books. In any event‚ Ontology examines what can exist and hat can not exist‚ and it further breaks those distinctions down into categories as it explores whether things can change or are‚ in fact‚ eternal (Kardaras‚ 2011‚ pp.125-126).”-“There are

Transcendentalism was an intellectual movement founded by Ralph Waldo Emerson. There are three cornerstones of the Transcendentalist belief which are * Human senses are limited; they convey knowledge of the physical world‚ but deeper truths can be grasped only through intuition. * The observation of nature illuminates the nature of human beings. * God‚ nature‚ and humanity are united in a shared universal soul. (pg. 387 under Literary Analysis) Our human senses are limited to what we have in

I hope by telling my nursing experience story that it will make you think about a special patient that you had the opportunity to take care of. The night before my first day of clinical I was excited and nervous. I did not know what type of patient I would have and I did not know if nursing was truly for me. I remember lying in bed praying to God to please not let my first patient be a man because I did not know how to take care of a male patient (at least that is what I thought). I kept thinking

Philosophy of Education Education plays a big role in the world today‚ which is why I believe it is so important. Throughout my time in my education classes at HSU I have heard many different reasons why people want to become a teacher. I’ve heard things like “I want to become a teacher to have summers off”‚ or “I just really love kids!” I believe to become a teacher you have to have far bigger/better reasons than that‚ because being a teacher really takes a lot of dedication and passion.

Szuber 1 Hicks Philosophy of Ethics April 19‚ 2012 Demanding a Voice On November 11‚ 1865 President Andrew Johnson presented Mary Edwards Walker the Medal of Honor for her service during the Civil War. This was the first and only time a female has received this highly distinguished award. Women have been treated unfairly by men since the beginning of time. Deborah Sampson was the first known female in the American army; she impersonated a man in order to join the Continental Army. (Boise)
