Children who can logically understand what they believe will hold fast to the truth and will be able to defend it throughout their lives. Logic is necessary to analyze other

Each of us‚ moments after birth‚ begin our journey exploring the world around us in search of what’s real‚ or safe‚ or fun‚ or comfortable – a quest to sort out sense from nonsense.

Visual perception and visual sensation are both interactive processes‚ although there is a significant difference between the two processes. Sensation is defined as the stimulation of sense organs Visual sensation is a physiological process which means that it is the same for everyone. We absorb energy such as electro magnetic energy (light) or sound waves by sensory organs such as eyes. This energy is then transduced into electro chemical energy by the cones and rods (receptor cells) in the retina

Parallel Perspectives There are various practices that study the way different notions between nature‚ human‚ and technology are connected. In fact‚ Evolutionary epistemology emphasizes its study in cognitive mechanism in both humans and animals‚ as wells as evolutionary biology based on the role of natural selection.

process of vision. We live in a media and image saturated age where we are taking images all the time and we need to broaden what it means to be literate‚ to read images rather than text as image. It’s more than reading and writing‚ its reading the visual world.
