what is epistemology the word itself comes from two greek words
it be stan which means knowledge or understanding
and low gear which means fine so study
so in a philosophical context epistemology is the study of knowledge in general
examples of philosophical epistemological questions or
what does knowledge you mean and how does a person get to know something and
what is the basis for true knowledge
what is knowledge
some say it's justified true belief
it means that a person must be able to just to find the claim
the claim itself must be true and the person must also actually ability in it
let's assume that a person says i know
the people walked on the move
for this to be chew knowledge it must be possible to justify that claim
must also be a fact
and finally the present most also actually believe that people have walked on the moo
so how do you just define a belief well it's done by using evidence
this evidence must be of good quality and it should also be a logical and
reasonable a piece of evidence
over time there's been two major branches of philosophical epistemology
namely and piddly system
and directional is some
and previous system
true knowledge is primarily founded on input from our senses
the empirical world around us
and it's important to refer to experience and observations one believe some claims that justify
the improvement so id so traditions
on the might be important but they are not the primary most important sources for
new knowledge
a fractional is on the other hand emphasises recent rather than the experience and observations
as the primary basis for justifying beliefs and claims
thus the rational
hence fractional listen and logical the human mind is the source for new knowledge
not the material world around us so
according to rationally as an research results are verified primarily by reason
in a you know the philosophical context we've seen the use of a the concept
of a piece the model g
and this is because the task of producing new knowledge is a major part of
the everyday work of most academics
so it is technology has a significant impact on these scientific endeavours of most scholars
giving the importance of this concept for discussing the limits some possibilities of creating and
reporting new knowledge
further scrollers in certain academic departments and disciplines such as for example accurate can an
instruction
educational science and pedagogy have
more or less and inherent interested in issues related to knowledge
formal epistemology what's that well
it is study of questions such as what is knowledge how may i believe speech
just define how do we know something
and how do we know that something is true
however the theories and concepts and arguments used here are used in a known philosophical
context for example in mathematical logic statistics linguistics
computing and other academic field
kinetic epistemology well is used to understand the cognitive development among children and how children
interact understand learned in a quiet new knowledge about the world
so ensure the theory implies that symbolic systems i e the
individuals
thoughts and knowledge or based on sensory motor schemes ieee the individuals
impressions and experiences in the world
and this concept to of genetic epistemology comes from these swiss psychologist trump she
social epistemology is about the social context for creating new knowledge
so we shall epistemology is started
in academic fields such as sociology psychology and education
in focus or human and social aspects of knowledge production
for example
historical and cultural factors the axis to and the use of learning tools and so
on
so having access to use youtube and the tutorials above philosophical concepts could be a
perfect example of aspects that are in focus for those that are interested in social
epistemology
