The Characteristics Of Shared Knowledge

Q1A) In what ways does the biological constitution of a living organism determine, influence or limit its sense perception?

One method one can know things about themselves is through the senses. One can see and feel that one has two arms, two eyes, a nose, a mouth, etc. One can also hear oneself when talking and smell oneself after a workout. If someone really wanted to, one could even taste themselves. One can also feel pain when one breaks a bone or when one is heartbroken. Similarly one can know love and hate, happiness and sadness, and hope and disbelief. Another method one can know things about themselves is through skill knowledge. For example, one can say that one knows how to play an instrument. One can and should know things about oneself in order to have individualism and prove to oneself that one is

Self-knowledge is an understanding or knowledge of one's own capabilities, feelings, or motivations. In Zora Neale Hurston’s novel, Their Eyes Were Watching God, Janie goes on a quest to discover self-knowledge by undergoing three marriages and facing multiple challenges. Through this quest, Janie is able to learn that one must not live for others, but for herself and for God.

A: Whenever you share information it promotes collaboration and communication between specific groups. It helps identify problems and solve particular issues within an organization. Sharing information, keeps the lines of communication open and the natural flow of ideas enhances learning, and keeps people connected. Sharing information ensures that all employees are aware of issues and serves the goal of open communication,

This fundamental of knowing can be difficult because the knowing of self is interdependent in observations and feedback from other people. This process is dynamic and can be ever changing because as the relationships within the individual environment changes the beliefs and values of the self could change as

One example of this could be existence. I have knowledge that I exist and this knowledge is something that knows itself because I do not have to think about it on a day to day basis. For something to know itself, I think, it must be something that does not need a reminder. So, one could bring up any example and this model will fit. Breathing: I have knowledge that I breath to stay alive and because it just is then it is a knowledge that knows itself. Socrates then brings up the issue between what one knows versus that one knows.I do not see how this is supposed to flaw the argument when it comes to self knowledge. I think what you know and that you know can go hand in hand. Socrates suggest the example where there are two men and one is a doctor and one is not. He says we would not be able to differentiate between one who knows the particulars of his art and one that pretends or supposes that he does. Conversely, I think one would be able to distinguish a difference by asking them a series of question about their self knowledge. A man who pretends or supposes to know medicine will be one that is unable to confidently be reflective of himself as a doctor. The way I look at I look at what one knows versus that one knows is this: What I know is that I exist in this world and the

Therefore, it is as the theme stated, “knowledge can be communicated, but not wisdom” (Hesse 142). You can talk and communicate about your experiences (knowledge), but you cannot make others learn by it

Siddhartha, a classic literature novel written by Hermann Hesse, focuses on Siddhartha’s spiritual journey during the Gautama Buddha time period. Siddhartha’s spiritual journey is mainly to achieve his goal to reach enlightenment or nirvana. The novel also offers commentary on a number of issues on relationships, desire, the path to enlightenment, etc. In this case, Siddhartha mentions that the teaching of wisdom is unachievable, which I disagree with, since wisdom can be taught and developed through a specific process, in this case, I will compare the teaching of knowledge and the teaching of wisdom. Knowledge is “the fact or condition of knowing something with familiarity gained through experience or association.”

The natural sciences and the arts are two areas of knowledge that play a prominent role in producing knowledge. Shared knowledge refers to procedural (knowing how) or propositional knowledge (knowing that) which is agreed upon and accepted by groups of people; it evolves over time as methods of justification change. For example, the Areas of Knowledge are considered shared knowledge because many people contribute to them. Personal knowledge differs between individuals; it includes personal skills, acquaintances and procedural knowledge that have been acquired through experience. It is much harder to communicate personal knowledge because it is based on personal experiences that differ between individuals (Knowledge in ToK). Although they can

I thought it was interesting that there is so much information and thought that can go into determining if we know ourselves better than anyone else, or if others can tell us more about ourselves than we are able to. Prior to reading the article by Vazier and Carlson (2010, p 605-616), I was under the impression that only you can truly determine what you are like, and therefore what others say is only a reflection of what you are willing to show them. While I still believe that my interpretation of the self-knowledge isn’t necessary wrong, the readings providing an excellent view from the other side. In reading the article, I found myself thinking that there are most likely acts and other functions that we perform, but are not necessarily

Shared knowledge is knowledge that is deemed to be universally accepted and thus has the reliability to be shared in means such as disciplines taught in school whereas Personal knowledge is often built through ones feelings, emotions, perspectives and opinions, as well as how an individual would interpret the world around them, through their senses, and often is not shared, due to its subjectivity and lack of reliability following suit.

The term self-knowledge refers to the knowledge of one’s particular mental states. This would include; beliefs, desires, and sensations. It is also seen to as the knowledge about ones persisting self, whether it be by ontological nature, identity, and character traits. Ohio State defines it as, “The problem of man’s understanding of himself is associated with that of a man’s insecurity, and it is treated in the larger frame of the difficulty’s of understanding the truth in general” The Ohio State of University 281. Self knowledge could also be described as self awareness. One is knowledgeable of their self and their own personal wants and needs.

In my Serbian culture, there is a common saying “A smart man learns from the mistakes of others, a stupid man, from his own”. In this culture, sharing knowledge from mistakes to books to recipes is considered the norm and all of the social interactions and relationships are built on and around the act and idea of sharing knowledge. Under similar context, Bhartrihari once said “Knowledge grows when shared”. Personal and shared knowledge influence one another and develop intellect of the society. They both correspond to the forms of the verb “to know”; personal knowledge corresponds to “I know”, while shared knowledge corresponds to “we know”. In this way, shared knowledge can shape personal knowledge, but in the same way, personal knowledge can influence shared knowledge. This led me to inquire: How do art and science influence our personal and shared knowledge belief systems?

Knowledge is defined to be facts, information, and skills acquired through experience or education. There are two categories that fall under knowledge; personal knowledge and shared knowledge. Shared knowledge refers to what “we know because.” It can also be defined as communicated and constructed knowledge; within culture, social norms, and semiotics. Personal knowledge refers to “I know because.” An expanded definition of personal knowledge refers to personal experiences, values, and perceptions. Shared knowledge changes and evolves over time because of methods that are continuously shared. It is assembled by a group of people. Personal knowledge, on the other hand, depends crucially on the experiences of a particular individual. It is gained

We live in a strange and puzzling world. Despite the exponential growth of knowledge in the past century, we are faced by a baffling multitude of conflicting ideas. The mass of conflicting ideas causes the replacement of knowledge, as one that was previously believed to be true gets replace by new idea. This is accelerated by the rapid development of technology to allow new investigations into knowledge within the areas of human and natural sciences. Knowledge in the human sciences has been replaced for decades as new discoveries by the increased study of humans, and travel has caused the discarding of a vast array of theories. The development of
