XIII. THEORIES AND MODELS 51. But what might these episodes be? And, in terms of our science fiction, how might our ancestors have come to recognize their existence? The answer to these questions is surprisingly straightforward, once the logical space of our discussion is enlarged to include a distinction, central to the philosophy of science, between the language of theory and the language of observation . Although this distinction is a familiar one, I shall take a few paragraphs to highlight those aspects of the distinction which are of greatest relevance to our problem. These remarks, of course, barely scratch the surface of the problem of the status of theories in scientific discourse. And no sooner have I made them, than I must hasten to qualify them almost beyond recognition.

Please Read How You Can Help Keep the Encyclopedia Free Constructive Empiricism First published Wed Oct 1, 2008 Constructive empiricism is the version of scientific anti-realism promulgated by Bas van Fraassen in his famous 1980 book The Scientific Image . Van Fraassen defines the view as follows: Science aims to give us theories which are empirically adequate; and acceptance of a theory involves as belief only that it is empirically adequate. (1980, 12) With his doctrine of constructive empiricism, van Fraassen is widely credited with rehabilitating scientific anti-realism. There has been a contentious debate within the philosophy of science community over whether constructive empiricism is true or false. There is also some unclarity regarding what van Fraassen's arguments for the doctrine actually are. In addition, there are controversies about what the doctrine actually amounts to. While constructive empiricism has not gained a wide number of adherents, it continues to be a highly influential doctrine in philosophy of science. 1. Understanding Constructive Empiricism

Empiricism Reading : Sober, Elliott (1993): "Epistemology for Empiricists." In H. Wettstein (ed.), Midwest Studies in Philosophy . Notre Dame: University of Notre Dame Press. Pages 39-61. Empiricism: Concerns the importance of experience in shaping our beliefs about the world�a normative claim, and not of psychology. The core doctrine of empiricism is that experience is the sole source of information about the world. Constructive Empiricism: Definition : A theory is empirically adequate , roughly, if all of what it says about observable aspects of the world (past, present, and future) is true. Van Fraassen : Science aims to give us theories which are empirically adequate; and acceptance of a theory involves as belief only that it is empirically adequate. Van Fraassen's constructive empiricism is about the content of our theories to which we have epistemic access. This statement about the aim of science is a thesis about what the methods of science are able to achieve. It should not be understood as asserting what scientists believe to be the aim of science.

Section III - Philosophical Perspectives in Education Part 1 Philosophy begins with wonder -Socrates Overview Philosophy means "love of wisdom." It is made up of two Greek words, philo , meaning love, and sophos , meaning wisdom. Philosophy helps teachers to reflect on key issues and concepts in education, usually through such questions as: What is being educated? What is the good life? What is knowledge? What is the nature of learning? And What is teaching? Philosophers think about the meaning of things and interpretation of that meaning. Even simple statements, such as "What should be learned? Or What is adolescence?" set up raging debates that can have major implications. For example, what happens if an adolescent commits a serious crime? One interpretation may hide another. If such a young person is treated as an adult criminal, what does it say about justice, childhood, and the like? Or if the adolescent is treated as a child, what does it say about society's views on crime? Your educational philosophy is your beliefs about why, what and how you teach, whom you teach, and about the nature of learning. It is a set of principles that guides professional action through the events and issues teachers face daily. Sources for your educational philosophy are your life experiences, your values, the environment in which you live, interactions with others and awareness of philosophical approaches. Learning about the branches of philosophy, philosophical world views, and different educational philosophies and theories will help you to determine and shape your own educational philosophy, combined with these other aspects.

Acceptance Essays Arts Custom Papers English ... Acceptable Use Policy Aquinas Saint Thomas Aquinas was well known building a bridge between philosophy and theology. Although having Platonic influences, Aquinas was mainly an Aristotelian. He mixed his Aristotelian philosophy with the Christian theology (p.163). Aquinas tackles the subjects of Gods existence, creation, morality, and human nature St. Thomas approaches the topic on the existence of God with a philosophical approach. Instead of assuming that God exists and then finding proof, he comes up with reasons that result in the exi Aquinas had strongly taken an Aristotelian view in explaining morality. He says that morality is based on will, but will is not everything. You must have intellect in order for will to work correctly. The intellect serves as a guide to will to choose what is right. He also adds that an act is not human if it is not free. Therefore if you were forced to do something wrong, it would not be considered morally wrong because you were not able to make a choice (p.176-177). Finally, Thomas felt that human

Kant: The "Copernican Revolution" in Philosophy Sandra LaFave West Valley College The philosophy of Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) is sometimes called the �Copernican revolution of philosophy� to emphasize its novelty and huge importance. Kant synthesized (brought together) rationalism and empiricism. After Kant, the old debate between rationalists and empiricists ended, and epistemology went in a new direction. After Kant, no discussion of reality or knowledge could take place without awareness of the role of the human mind in constructing reality and knowledge. Summary of Rationalism The paradigm rationalist philosophers are Plato (ancient); Descartes, Spinoza, Leibniz (modern). Don�t trust senses, since they sometimes deceive; and since the �knowledge� they provide is inferior (because it changes). Reason alone can provide knowledge. Math is the paradigm of real knowledge.

Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy A B C ... Z Immanuel Kant: Metaphysics Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) is one of the most influential philosophers in the history of Western philosophy. His contributions to metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and aesthetics have had a profound impact on almost every philosophical movement that followed him. This article focuses on his metaphysics and epistemology in one of his most important works, The Critique of Pure Reason .  A large part of Kant’s work addresses the question “What can we know?” The answer, if it can be stated simply, is that our knowledge is constrained to mathematics and the science of the natural, empirical world. It is impossible, Kant argues, to extend knowledge to the supersensible realm of speculative metaphysics. The reason that knowledge has these constraints, Kant argues, is that the mind plays an active role in constituting the features of experience and limiting the mind’s access only to the empirical realm of space and time. Kant responded to his predecessors by arguing against the Empiricists that the mind is not a blank slate that is written upon by the empirical world, and by rejecting the Rationalists’ notion that pure, a priori knowledge of a mind-independent world was possible.  Reason itself is structured with forms of experience and categories that give a phenomenal and logical structure to any possible object of empirical experience.  These categories cannot be circumvented to get at a mind-independent world, but they are necessary for experience of spatio-temporal objects with their causal behavior and logical properties.  These two theses constitute Kant’s famous transcendental idealism and empirical realism.
