Though constructivists believe that reality is based upon our own individual perceptions and thoughts, Delia’s constructivism theory is more objective. Within the objective approach, Delia’s theory falls primarily under the socio-psychological tradition, but dabbles in the rhetorical tradition of Griffins survey map. A socio- psychological scholar “believes that there are communication truths that can be discovered by careful, systematic observation”(Griffin, 2009, p, 42). It also displays a cause-and-effect
several theoretical underpinnings such as Ontology, epistemology, axiology and methodology (Creswell, & Creswell, 2007) Ontology questions the nature of reality and truth; which can be subjective because of the deviation of culture norms in every society. Epistemology is the relationship between the researcher and the research. The researcher must become involved in the research but keep some emotional distance to remain neutral. Axiology states the research must be mindful of the biases and ethical
principles and priorities which underpin practice. When creating a Coaching Philosophy there are four key aspects a coach should reflect upon, and scaffold their philosophy around-Axiology, Ontology, Epistemology and Pedagogy. Axiology, encompasses morals, values, ethics, and ideals which coaches place differing importance on. Axiology in a coaching context is important as it forms the basis for the type of culture and environment a coach creates within
1 RIGHT, DUTY AND OBLIGATION/RESPONSIBILITY: A SEARCH FOR ETHICAL FUNDAMENTALS By Dr. Ani Casimir K.C 2 1) Introduction: Immanuel Kant gave philosophy four fundamental questions with which it is to concern itself and they are: (1) What can I know? ; (2) What is man?; (3) What can I hope for, and, (4) Finally, what ought I to do.

I was not a dedicated, or motivated, student, I wanted to have nothing to do with school, I just went to get school over with and to move on to the next grade. My mom is a special education teacher at an elementary school. To me my mom is my biggest inspiration why I want to be a teacher, her philosophy opened my eyes up to what teachers can do to kids.

Ayesha S. Boyce, Ph.D. Shared four strategies in her research of how an individual can engage with current issues focus in STEM program evaluation.

3.7 Sampling Procedures and Techniques. 3.7.1 Sampling Method The researcher will be using a combination of both probabilistic and non-probabilistic method as the research is largely qualitative in nature but there are elements of a quantitative nature. By using a combination of sampling methods it will allow the research to be more realistic and not skewed. The researcher will apply a non-probability – purposive method and using the Heterogeneous sampling technique while analyzing the phenomenon
with God, or from an unreflective place derived unconsciously from one’s value system based on external resources. When shaping a conscious worldview in which our ethical belief system is a derivative, the framework of ontology, epistemology and axiology gives us the ability to ask who are we, what is truth, and how did we arrive at our values (Porter, 2013). As a Christian, this author elects to support the ethical
