The Relationship Between Shared Knowledge And Personal Knowledge

While my initial expectations for this assignment were vague, I did not imagine that I will have so much interesting. In addition, the course brought interesting issues about knowledge and different ways of knowing. This gives me a wonderful chance to connect with our patterns of knowing to daily living. Consequently, I noted myself able to build connections to my life’s experiences and knowledge.

Tacit knowledge – know the definition and know what facilitates the exchange of this kind of knowledge (refer to discussion in Rutland and O’Hagan article).

| The study of knowledge: What constitutes knowledge, the nature of knowledge, and whether knowledge is possible

Knowledge is a powerful tool, one which will unlock many doors for us as individuals and as the whole of the human race, but we must always remember the consequences of gaining knowledge. It is both our blessing and our curse, and we must never forget that knowledge is a power, what we do with that power will determine our fate and

These moments show a common theme as well that, knowledge can change your perspective on things.

Current views of the world, desires, dreams, goals, and the demands placed upon society are constantly transformed by present epistemological beliefs. Schommer-Aikens and Hutter (2002) investigated the relationship between an individuals’ belief about knowledge, learning or epistemological beliefs and how this relates to average conversational issues (Schommer-Aikens , Hutter, 2002). Using a study group of 174 adults ranging in age from 17 to 71, Schommer-Aikens and Hutter (2002) posed questions assessing beliefs of knowledge and the speed control of learning.

Therefore, it has proven that some specific kinds of knowledge are originated by human’s experience and then turn into information knowledge by sharing

From a young age, I’ve learned that knowledge is a powerful tool and a necessity in life. Thankfully, I’m one of the few in my family who understands this and chooses to get ahead in life

Society is viewed as the collective thoughts, ideals and ways of life held and maintained by a group of individuals. Often these beliefs and practices of different societies are the result of a shared perspective or shared knowledge. However, with different individual components formulating the basis for a society, there is question to whether the shared or collective cognition is able to shape the way individuals themselves process information. In understanding the impact of how a socially constructed knowledge system can shape the individual’s own knowledge, I will invoke the reasoning of two separate areas of knowledge, specifically the humans sciences and ethics, that deal heavily with the human experience.

While researching and analyzing information, it is important to consider different perspectives from different sources and experts. However, one has to ask, how can two experts have two different viewpoints when presented with the same facts? For the purpose of this essay, an ‘expert’ will be defined as a person that has an abundant amount of knowledge about a specific subject area or skill and a ‘fact’ as a piece of information that is indisputable. Based on the indigenous knowledge system and religious knowledge system an expert is accustomed to, the way that they perceive knowledge can be altered specifically due to the role of emotion in each knowledge system.

Different realities also exist within different areas of knowledge. Therefore, it can be said that the appraisal and consequent classification of the true value of produced knowledge can not be limited to the degree of difficulty with which said knowledge was produced, and

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.”

Throughout our lives as thinkers, we often find ourselves interacting with the status quo. For this essay, I will consider the statement, “In the production of knowledge, traditions of areas of knowledge offer correctives for ways of knowing.” Producing knowledge is the process of making a discovery or a creation that adds to the body of an area of knowledge. Traditions in areas of knowledge include not only methods frequently practiced by predecessors, but also conventions that when followed, increase the perceived credibility of knowledge. Correctives serve to eliminate the weaknesses of a work, specifically to increase reliability and clarity as well as reduce bias.

With reference to two areas of knowledge discuss the way in which shared knowledge can shape personal knowledge.

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
