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.

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.

Philosophy of Education Thomas Jefferson once said “genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.” I believe it is this 1% inspiration that we must find‚ as teachers‚ in the youth of today. That way‚ we can give them the motivation to unlock the 99% perspiration inside themselves. After all‚ without that 1% inspiration‚ you have no reason to perspire. Teaching requires a certain kind of patience‚ understanding‚ and willingness to perspire on its’ own. It is not an easy task to uncover that
