         <description><![CDATA[<div>The mystery object activity taught me a lot about application of prior knowledge and knowledge disparities and gaps. I.e. a couple of students couldn't identify the mystery object due to lack of knowledge and exposure.&nbsp;<br><br>5 things I know and how that makes me a knower and the place where that knowledge came from.&nbsp;<br><br>1. I know that plants are green because of chlorophyll, I know this because of prior knowledge taught in 6th grade biology.&nbsp;<br>2. I know that PEDs (personal electronic devices) all have lithium ion batteries which is what makes them rechargeable.&nbsp; I know this from IDU and chemistry classes&nbsp;<br>3. I know that Bill Gates is the founder of Microsoft, I know this through the internet and my own personal reading.&nbsp;<br>4. I know that the Eras tour took place in Singapore and it sold out, I know this through word of mouth (my cousins).&nbsp;<br>5. I know that you start counting from 1 because of early years and the knowledge I gained from then. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Q2: 2. What lessons did the Mystery Object Challenge teach you about the Theory of Knowledge?</div><div><br></div><div>Ans2: Your prior “knowledge” can be very important in unfamiliar situations. That you have to question your “knowledge” to understand what might already be established. It showed me how your senses can be used to guess the object. Not just senses but also your guesses, since that’s what helps you navigate your way to the right object. It’s a way of using your senses and knowledge to identify objects in an unfamiliar situation.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Q3: 3. List down five things you “know” and identify where this knowledge came from. EXAMPLE: I know that “Water is composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (H2O)”• Source of Knowledge: This knowledge comes from the field of chemistry and scientific research and my science classes through my teachers</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Ans3:&nbsp;</div><div>List of things that I “know”:&nbsp;</div><ol><li>Gravity exists (Source of Knowledge: Physics)</li><li>Water is a polar covalent compound (Source of Knowledge: Chemistry)</li><li>The Munich Conference in which the Czech “sundentenland” area was “given” to Germany as appeasement was broken by The Third Reich (Source of Knowledge: History).&nbsp;</li><li>In an equilateral triangle, all the three sides and angles are equal. Source of Knowledge: Mathematics</li><li>In the E flat minor scale, you have the notes E-flat, F, G-flat, A-flat, B-flat, C-flat and D-flat. Source of Knowledge: A piano.&nbsp;</li></ol><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Q4: 4. “THE KNOWER” Think about your earliest memories of learning and any significant educational experiences that have influenced your intellectual growth.Consider how people, books, media, or experiences have had a strong impact on your knowledge and beliefs.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Ans4: One of the most mind boggling things I’ve ever come across is the Fermi paradox. This was proposed by Enrico Fermi. Fermi’s idea that there’s a great “barrier” between civilisations in the universe. That every planet with intelligent life has to go through and overcome to be able to survive. In essence it’s basically an argument between why potentially there should be more advanced civilisations in the universe, yet how we lack empirical concrete evidence of said civilisations. For some it’s frightening at the possibility of how we could be totally unaware of civilisations that made it through the barrier or not, if our own’s going to make it past the barrier or not.&nbsp;<br><br><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>2. What lessons did the Mystery Object Challenge teach you about the Theory of Knowledge?<br><br>The mystery object challenge helped us understand the usage of prior knowledge in making decisions in identifying the object. Using different senses and techniques, by utilizing familiarity and memory we could draw connections and identify the object.&nbsp;<br><br>3. List down five things you "know" and identify where this knowledge came from. EXAMPLE: I know that “Water is composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (H2O)<br><br>3. I know that Pi is a irrational number due to mathematical research and learning through classes in my junior years.<br>I know that the alphabet has 26 letters due to learning it from my early school teachers and general knowledge.<br>I know that Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system due to enquiring from the internet when I was curious.<br>I know that anything to the power of 0 is 1 due to mathematics classes in my middle years.<br>I know how to solve a rubiks cube through exploring the internet and learning the methodology for it.<br><br>4. "THE KNOWER" Think about your earliest memories of learning and any significant educational experiences that have influenced your intellectual growth. Consider how people, books, media, or experiences have had a strong impact on your knowledge and beliefs.<br><br>4.&nbsp;<br>Earliest memories of learning for me would likely be the many classes that I attended such as mathematics classes. These were extremely significant as it helped me a lot with school later on and gave me strong fundamentals for building knowledge.<br><br>5. <br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Q2. What lessons did the mystery object challenge teach you about the theory of knowledge?&nbsp;<br><br>Answer -&gt; The mystery object challenge taught me that from past experiences and education help us build upon our theory of knowledge therefore we can identify why and how we know what we know.&nbsp;<br><br>Q3. List down five things you "know" and identify where this knowledge came from. EXAMPLE: I know that “Water is composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (H2O)”• Source of Knowledge: This knowledge comes from the field of chemistry and scientific research and my science classes through my teachers<br><br>Answer -&gt; 1) Every colour has another colour that can cancel the first colour out. This knowledge comes from the colour wheel that is from the field of visual arts.&nbsp;<br><br>Q4. 4. "THE KNOWER" Think about your earliest memories of learning and any significant educational experiences that have influenced your intellectual growth.Consider how people, books, media, or experiences have had a strong impact on your knowledge and beliefs.<br><br>Answer -&gt; One of my mom earliest memories of any significant educational experience is of when I was in kindergarten and we were taught the IB learner profile attributes and golden words. All these topics are the core values that I have learned acquire over the course of time.&nbsp;<br><br>One book that has been a complete inspiration for helping me decide what my dream job is the book "Basher Science - The Human Body". This book was what created the start of a spark of the massive amounts of passion I have to become a doctor. Even today, whenever I have doubts and feel discouraged, reading the book brings back all the passion I have for learning biology and becoming a doctor.&nbsp;<br><br>Q5. MYSTERY OBJECT ACTIVITY REFLECTION &amp; ALLEGORY OF THE CAVE<br><br>Answer -&gt;&nbsp;<br>1) If I were to be blindfolded, I would've been very scared and unsure of my surroundings therefore leaving me in fear of thinking about what would happen next.&nbsp;<br><br>2) No, I was not able to see the entire truth as I could only rely on my senses and past memories. Although all our senses are together used to get to know the world, they cannot be the only source of information to rely on as they might not entirely be accurate due to our senses being&nbsp;<br>based on our own interpretation of things.&nbsp;<br><br>3) In Plato's Allegory of the Cave, prisoners are chained inside a cave and can only see the shadows of objects projected on the cave wall. These shadows are their only reality, as they have never seen the outside world. When one of the prisoners is freed and brought out of the cave into the sunlight, he experiences the true reality and comes to understand that the shadows were mere illusions.<br><br></div><div>The blindfolded activity can be related to this allegory in the sense that the person blindfolded represents the prisoners in the cave. The blindfold restricts their vision, much like the prisoners' chains restrict their perception. When blindfolded, individuals are limited to their other senses to identify objects, similar to how the prisoners can only perceive the shadows on the cave wall. This activity highlights how our perception of reality is often limited by our senses and experiences, and it can serve as a way to discuss philosophical questions about what is real and how we come to know the world around us.<br><br></div><div>In both cases, the central themes involve the idea that our perception of reality might be incomplete or distorted, and that there might be more to the world than what we can directly experience.&nbsp;<br><br>4) The blindfolded experience affect your perception as<br>of the objects, as while being blindfolded, your tactile senses&nbsp; get stronger and collaborate more with your brain to identify the object.&nbsp;<br><br>5)Here's how each sense contributes to shaping our understanding of the world:<br><br></div><ol><li><strong>Vision</strong>: Vision is one of the most dominant senses for humans. It provides us with a vast amount of information about the shape, color, movement, and spatial relationships of objects. Our visual perception allows us to navigate our surroundings, identify objects, and understand the environment's layout.</li><li><strong>Hearing</strong>: Hearing enables us to perceive sounds, including speech, music, and environmental noises. Auditory information helps us understand the direction and distance of sound sources and contributes to our awareness of our surroundings and potential dangers.</li><li><strong>Touch</strong>: The sense of touch allows us to feel textures, temperatures, and pressures. Through touch, we gather information about the physical properties of objects, such as whether they are smooth, rough, hard, or soft.</li><li><strong>Taste</strong>: Taste helps us distinguish between different flavors and detect the basic qualities of food and other substances. It's closely linked to our sense of smell, contributing to our enjoyment of food and our ability to identify potential dangers (such as spoiled food).</li><li><strong>Smell</strong>: Smell is strongly tied to memory and emotions. Our olfactory senses help us identify different odors, and these odors can trigger powerful associations and reactions based on past experiences.</li><li><strong>Proprioception</strong>: Proprioception is the sense that allows us to perceive the position and movement of our own body parts without needing to see them. It's what allows you to touch your nose with your eyes closed or walk without constantly looking at your feet.</li><li><strong>Equilibrium</strong>: The sense of equilibrium, also known as the vestibular sense, helps us maintain balance and a sense of spatial orientation. It relies on the inner ear's receptors and contributes to our ability to move and navigate.</li></ol><div><br>6) Truth is something we acknowledge, not something we're able to sense. Our senses provide us with quite precise information; we simply need to know how to use it. On the other hand, we frequently interpret such data incorrectly. Hence it is important to also know facts so we can use our senses to understand the world even more&nbsp;efficiently.&nbsp;<br><br>7) Questioning our perceptions and considering multiple perspectives are crucial aspects of the pursuit of knowledge for several reasons such as challenge confirmation bias, uncover hidden assumptions, enhance critical thinking, encouraging empathy and understanding and discovering as well as adapting to new information.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Question: What lessons did the mystery object challenge teach you about the theory of knowledge <br><br>The Mystery object challenge exhibited the significance of memory and perception. It showcased how each individuals prior knowledge played a role in unveiling the object, whether it be visual memory, recognizing smell, or identifying a similar description for the object. The activity also demonstrated the limitations of knowledge and how this questions knowledge we aquire and our judgement.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

Ever since then, social media has always been my primary mode of contact. I always use it for learning new things (through the various online communities), reading about recent news, and also to simply communicate with my friends.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>Q2: What lessons did the mystery object challenge teach you about the theory of knowledge?</strong></div><div><br></div><div>answer 2: Knowledge is simply defined as something we know, or learn over a period of time. The mystery object challenge made me realize that there are multiple ways in which our brain thinks in order to reach a conclusion. We mostly used our senses, learnings and memories to communicate our opinions and perspectives on the same.</div><div><br></div><div><strong>Q3: list down five things you "know" and identify where this knowledge came from?</strong></div><div><br></div><div>answer 3:</div><div>1) I know that there are only 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0 as numerals and the rest are made using these numbers (area of knowledge - Maths)&nbsp;</div><div>2) yellow is a primary colour (area of knowledge - Visual arts)&nbsp;</div><div>3) The solar system consists of 8 planets, not 9 (area of knowledge - space studies)&nbsp;</div><div>4) water is represented as H20 (area of knowledge - Chemistry)&nbsp;</div><div>5) anxiety has multiple branches (area of knowledge - psychology)&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div><strong>Q4: Think about your earliest memories of learning and any significant educational experiences that have influenced your intellectual growth.

I used to write C the opposite way and wouldn’t understand the difference between the alphabet “b” and “d.” The writing book really helped me in terms of my writing and intellectual growth.

Describe these experiences.&nbsp;<br></strong><br></div><div>answer 5: Recently during Bridge course, I was strongly against death penalties, mostly cause it isn’t practically and against the law. However, when we had the debate in class, people presented views in terms of emotional connection to the situation and how punishing murder with death wasn’t fair and I truly felt like to some extent, the death penalty should be an option for extreme cases and punishments. &nbsp;</div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <title>Ruhan - Reflection on Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave” </title>
         <author></author>
         <link>https://padlet.com/iamleenaphilip/qydlhsmr2kfummc9/wish/2680832906</link>
         <description><![CDATA[<div>Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave” is a text laden with metaphors. It’s a short story of how there are prisoners inside the cave who are chained and can only see their shadows, or the shadows of fellow prisoners from the fire inside the cave. They can only see shadows since they’re not “moving their heads.” The prisoners are released, and one walks out of the cave, and into the “light”, into the world. He’s blinded by it, and once he returns to the cave, he tries to convince the prisoners still inside to what he saw. None of them believe him, as none of them have taken the courageous step of leaving the cave. The cave represents the world that we’re in, the limitations of our imagination, the way our imagination is limited to what we “see” when our heads aren’t moving, bound by the chains. When the prisoner leaves the cave, it’s a metaphor for the fact that he is being “enlightened”. Limited light is limited knowledge, not 100% of the information. When everyone’s knowledge is “limited” in that way, when you are “enlightened” and have been exposed to the “light” no one would believe you. Such as Copernicus, Galileo and several renowned astronomers. They were executed, excommunicated, placed under house arrest and called “heretics”. Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave” is therefore representative of humans and the world, our perceived reality and the “real” reality.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Plato's "Allegory of the Cave" is a symbolic tale. It portrays prisoners confined in a cave, chained and only able to see shadows from a fire. One prisoner is liberated, ventures into the blinding world outside, and returns to enlighten the others. The cave symbolizes our limited perception, while the freed prisoner represents enlightenment. When he tries to share his newfound knowledge, he's met with skepticism, echoing the challenges faced by historical figures like Copernicus and Galileo. In essence, the allegory highlights the gap between our perceived reality and the true reality.</div>]]></description>

         <title>After discussing the article  &quot;Doctors’ &#39;gut feeling&#39; should not be ignored&quot; by British Medical Journal, do you think - medical teaching explicitly should incorporate intuition- the concept of &quot;gut feeling&quot; as a valid diagnostic sign, and how might this impact the training and practices of future healthcare professionals?</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Narratives can be changed or warped based on a writer's individual beliefs. For example, a textbook might glorify national achievements while downplaying or ignoring controversial episodes or vice versa, such as colonialism or human rights abuses. Additionally, the compilers may interpret the words of the writer in a unintended manner. This can cause the potential for true meaning to become distorted in the quest to collate data into limited space. This creates a skewed understanding of history, where readers may develop a distorted view of their nation's past, seeing it through a lens that reinforces national pride or cultural superiority while neglecting the experiences and contributions of minority groups. Thefore, this can lead to a narrow and biased perception of history that fails to highlight the intricate nunces.</p>]]></description>

         <title>Biases in History Textbooks- Tashvi</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Biases in history textbooks can shape a student's understanding of national identities and historically important figures, by focusing on certain narratives while also downplaying or omitting others. Some textbooks from certain regions may glorify certain figures, for that matter, even the use of certain diction, vocabulary, etc.  will end up influencing how students view their country and its leaders, forever influencing their perspectives. Presenting history in a completely unbiased way is not very easy, as every historian brings their own perspective and even during the time of issuing a history textbook, biases are inevitable. Even with the use of AI, biases are bound to wound up in those responses, as those pieces of information did originally come from human sources. The scope of this is that history is continuously updated and very dynamic as an AOK, and biases have the potential to be avoided through cross-referencing and maintaining a balanced, un-bias perspective as much as possible.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Learning about the past can help us avoid making the same mistakes again. We can&nbsp;recognise identical patterns and stay away from repeating past mistakes by learning from what was not done before, or improving on what had already been done to come up with a more effective situation.For example the great depression in the 1930's taught governments about the risks and the importance of economic management, which is why during the great depression in 2008, governments were a lot more prepared with more effective solutions in order to not allow the situation to get as bad.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Biases in history textbooks can influence ones understanding of events and historical figures by highlighting certain events or figures while downplaying or diminishing others, such as glorifying a countrys founding leaders and ignoring their involvement in colonialism. Textbooks could have selective portrayal which shapes how we percieve historical figures or the series of events in history. Although facts arent exactly altered, the perception and interpretation of those facts are centralized around cultural and personal biases. For example: US history books celebrate Christopher Columbus while glossing over the impact of his actions on indigineous communities.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Q1- Does the study of history prevent us from repeating past mistakes? How? Give examples. (Times of India article)</p><p><br/></p><p>This question is rather Debatable. History stands as evidence for events that took place before us. Multiple mistakes were made by superpowers, leaders, economics, politicians and socialist groups. History can be used as a way to avoid what happened in the past, a real life example for this is the Ukraine and Russia war. Although it is an ongoing conflict, the Ukraine and Russia war is progressing without interference by any other super power, which is bad because a country is facing major problems. However, when taking inspiration from history, super powers interference led to global conflict, like during world war 2, but that is being avoided here, So to some extent History can be taken as an evidence. </p><p><br/></p><p>This statement is also challenged when the discussion on the Nirbhaya case comes forward. Post such a heinous crime, today, almost 14 years later, a similar crime took place. No change was made in the rape laws back then, and now there's another issue. </p><p><br/></p><p>In conclusion, Overall history does have some significance and can be used as reference to avoid mistakes, however, it also has it's own flaws </p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p>]]></description>
