Day 2 - Video Responses to Metaphysics, Epistemology, and Ethics

We will watch these three videos (you can see the text of these talks (subtitles) by clicking the button directly below the video indicating "27 Languages") and take good notes.

Metaphysics (Dan Dennett)
Epistemology  (Marco Tempest)
Ethics (Paul Root-Volpe)

I'm trying to get a look at your writing so I suggest a couple of things to include in  your writing as follows:

  • Define each of the terms (Ethics, Metaphysics, Epistemology) in  your writing.
  • Use examples from the videos to illustrate and support your ideas.
  • Use examples from elsewhere in society to illustrate and support your ideas.
  • Use at least one quote from each video to help illustrate and support your ideas.
  • Use your own ideas about whether you agree or not with what the videos are showing and that is what should form the basis of your writing.
Please submit to the Dropbox (Under "Assessments") in the D2L version of this course.  You'll sign in just like you would on a school computer at:

    1. I am pretty sure its just an opinion paragraph like whether or not you agree with the statements in the videos
