In my recent interview with my fellow education major Daniela Guzman‚ we discussed many different topics including the factors that lead us to deciding to go into the teaching profession.

Daniela and I each wish to teach a different grade so the answers each of us gave were the same in many ways but also had their own personal touch. Daniela has always been good with children

Socrates and Descartes on Dualism Dualism means the complete separation of the mental world and the physical world. In philosophy‚ it is the theory that the universe is explicable only as a whole composed of two distinct and mutually exclusive factors: the mind and the body.

story written by Plato‚ is actually an account of how the death of Socrates went about. This fictitious story written from Phaedo’s point of view is used by Plato to detail his ideas of life and death‚ but through the perspective of Socrates on his final day.

Nevertheless‚ there is a lot to learn about Socrates’ (and Plato’s) idea of the soul from this reading. According

It was Athens in the end that
