Should philosophy be part of school curriculums?

answers1: I say yes. But you'll always have controversy over what is
being taught because many might not agree. And the government tries to
tell us what we can and can't teach/learn. So the chances of it
happening are unlikely.
answers2: Yes, absolutely, but it shouldn't be called philosophy
because most parents will think it's a waste of time. Instead, high
school should require courses in critical thinking skills, analysis,
rhetoric and argument, ethics, and inductive reasoning. They should
be required in high school. Too many students arrive at college
unprepared to think clearly. <br>
<br>
High schools should avoid naming courses philosophy, logic, or
metaphysics because parents who are afraid of philosophy will think
those courses are not a proper part of a curriculum. There is a
wide-spread bias against philosophy among the ignorant because it is
so often associated with sophistry and trickery. Those parents who
know what philosophy is will be glad their children are learning
thinking skills.

what is masters of philosophy about?

answers1: The Masters in Philosophy at the University of Groningen is
an education program aimed at teaching students key skills in cricial
analysis, independent research, and both oral and written
communication within the context of philosophy. A central theme of
this education course is both critical reflection on life, science,
culture, and society, and the discussion of it, as nothing in
philosophy is self-evident. <br>
<br>
Students are taught within these four focuses, and are also able to
enroll in other courses outside of the Philosophy department. This
allows them to not only gain an in-depth knowledge of Philosophy, but
also to acquire an overview of the central debates within the
discipline they choose. During the last 6 months of their education,
students complete a thesis - the culmination of 6 months research.

what is president obama's philosophy?

answers1: Personal philosophy of life — success & Winners <br>
Every one of us, unconsciously, works out a personal philosophy of
life, by which we are guided, inspired, and corrected, as time goes
on. It is this philosophy by which we measure out our days, and by
which we advertise to all about us the man, or woman, that we are. . .
. It takes but a brief time to scent the life philosophy of anyone. It
is defined in the conversation, in the look of the eye, and in the
general mien of the person. It has no hiding place. It's like the
perfume of the flower — unseen, but known almost instantly. It is the
possession of the successful, and the happy. And it can be greatly
embellished by the absorption of ideas and experiences of the useful
of this earth. <br>

answers2: CHANGE
answers3: Have you ever read the philosophy of Karl Marx? Here it is
in a nut shell...Society views the government as God, no one in
society is allowed to fail because the government wont let them, and
no one in society is allowed to excel for the same reason. <br>
<br>
He sees the path of least resistance as the key to happiness. The
reason I disagree with that philosophy is simple...you can't build
character on that road. It's a path where men are given the power to
legislate another man's potential, and it's wrapped up in a beautiful
package that makes everyone "feel" ok about it.
answers4: Hard to say. First he says he's atheist now he says he
believes in a god. Some people do anything to get a seat in the white
house, including forging a birth certificate
answers5: Once you go black you don't go back.
answers6: Lets ask him.
answers7: idk ask the dudes paying him har harrrrrr
answers8: It can be anything. It may be love and pursuit of wisdom by
intellectual means. Or he may like to investigate about the causes and
laws underlying the reality. Also he may like to Inquiry into the
nature of things based on logical reasoning.

Why is everyone against the Supporters of Performing Arts (SOPA), like seriously?

answers1: Well what about those people who like to sing and post a
video on youtube singing there favorite song! they wont be able to if
this law passes
answers2: I am not sure if this question is supposed to be sarcastic
or not, but I will answer anyway. <br>
<br>
People here are referring to SOPA the ''Stop Online Piracy Act''. <br>
<br>
The reason people are angry about it and against it is because it
gives the government more power to censor the internet. I myself am
also against it. This piece of legislation is a very serious threat to
personal liberty long term, as it could make way for even more
aggressive legislation. <br>
<br>
The DMCA already covers the issue it is trying to solve anyway. It is
not just a bad piece of legislation, it is unnecessary.
answers3: Yes seriously
answers4: I see nobody laughing.

performing arts school or public school?

answers1: Do what you want, go to the art school. If your friend
truely cares for you, she won't mind you embracing your dreams. You
can still talk to your friends, and hang out with them. Don't care
what your friends think because if they are mad about you doing
something you want they aren't your friends. I'm sure they will miss
you, but that's okay. You guys are going to split up when you
graduate in a couple years anyway. I say go for it, because this will
probably ultimately make you happier. Who knows- maybe you'll make
new friends who share your passion. You can keep those friends, and
your old friends. Trust me, it'll be fine! Part of life is taking
risks. <br>
<br>
And I'm positive there'll be more musicians at a Performing Arts
school. It'll be filled with tons of people who understand your
passion.

Performing arts high school?

answers1: I think this was very good. I like how you explained the
school's setting and what the schedule will be like. You went really
into depth with what the school is about which can help the reader
figure out if this school is really for them. I myself liked reading
it because i love performing and I'm more of an artistic person and
this school sounded like something i would love to be apart of. One
thing you can work on is probably describing how this school affects
the child's behavior or future attending this school. Does this school
promise them a future career in arts? Does this school have different
behavior outcomes then other average schools? Just questions to think
about but overall you did great. :)
answers2: One of my friends named Shelby goes to a Performing Arts
High School. She said that it is really fun and gets you on the right
track to a professional career. Plus, Shelby goes for free! (So maybe
you can too!) Good Luck this year! [: She goes to one in New Jersey. I
forget the name of it though. I'm sorry. You can look up Performing
Art High Schools in the New Jersey area. (She lives near Ocean City if
that helps.)
answers3: There are A LOT of grammatical errors.
answers4: my school has that music thing too. we call it walking
music. its cool. one day it didnt work, and i was so lost with out it.
answers5: I was interested.
answers6: To me, it seemed like one big long run on sentence. Very
interesting, just work on your punctuation and spelling.

what are some basic requirements for performing arts high schools?

answers1: You don't need to worry <br>
A performing arts school is just a school with extra classes like art,
dance, acting <br>
But those electives are optional
answers2: My daughter is a grad of LaGuardia Arts. H.S. (the Fame
school) in NYC. Many of the PA schools are patterned after her school.
Her audition was a ballet class followed by a modern class. Then a
solo when asked back. That is pretty standard for most P.A. High
Schools (with or without the addition of a solo.) You will not find
Lyrical dance or anything competition dance like in a P.A. school. The
reason for this is that they are looking to get you ready for college
or conservatory dance programs and being that lyrical only exists in
small studios and competition dance and not in professional dance, you
wont find it in their curriculum. You will need strong clean ballet
technique. It is not important if you can do tricks or how many
fouette turns you can do. It is important that your technique is
strong and clean. That you land everything well and have good
alignment. They will be looking for solid dancers. Pointe is also not
that important. The school will be contemporary based which means
ballet and modern classes. That is what the majority of college
programs are. <br>
If you can up your basic ballet technique that would be your best
preparation. Even taking some beginner classes to reinforce and
strengthen your technique and alignment. The modern they will expect
to teach you in school. The ballet they want you to come with already.
<br>
At my daughters school they did a 90 minute ballet class followed by a
90 minute modern class everyday. The second half of the day was
academics. After school many students took additional classes at their
ballet academies or dance academies like SAB, BAE or Alvin Ailey or
other schools in the area. On occasion they added a tap class , jazz
class , or theater dance class to the school curriculum, but that took
up only a very small part of the dancing program. <br>
Good luck!
