"The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing." - Socrates
"How do we know what we know" is the basic question of all human kind?
Ancient Indian philosophers are of view that knowledge is daily living of every individual. They meant that knowledge could be acquired only through humbleness and knowledge acquisition is more of religious outlook. Western thinkers believed that knowledge is growth and development of an individual.
Robert Audi in his book on Epistemology claims that sources of knowledge are perception, reasoning, intuition and sense experience, "Impressions are the sources of all ideas and knowledge" says Hume. "Knowledge has two different views based on the judgements inner and outer" claims John Locke. To know that we know what we know, and to know that we do not know what we do not know, that is true knowledge reiterates Nicolaus Copernicus.
Education is not just about going to school and getting a degree. It's about widening our knowledge. All our knowledge begins with the senses, proceeds then to the understanding, and ends with reason. As teacher Educators let us find ways to improve students reasoning. Let us create more opportunities for students to analyse and reasoning the relevance of the data, evaluating data sources and teach students strategies for systematically gathering data, encourage students to acknowledge the goodwill and services of the contributors in their attempt to boost quality at all levels of education. Wishing all the readers a prolific reading.
