Week 1 Overview and Weekend Assignments

Excellent conversation. Look into the difference between "Subjective" and "Objective" truth claims. Also, consider our student-generated question: can there be knowledge without truth?"

A couple of assignment points:

1. You are blogging on the "Alatheia Forum" (http://www.tctok.us/p/alatheia-forum.html), posting your PoK questions on Violence, Identity and Culture (as well as one paragraph response to another TOK student PoK).

2. You are completing your team chapter readings with one page of outlined notes. Be ready to debrief on the topics and activities to explain the concepts to the class and points you found important/interesting.

3. You are completing an "Argue Out" on the topic: "Gun Control" (Also in the notes file here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/guxgfxlccqlvbm5/01.last. first.date.Notes.docx)further explanation of this assignment can befoundhere:https://www.dropbox.com/s/ti5x3dh93gti2yf/Argue%20Out%20Explanation.doc

4. You are submitting your Winter Assignment to the "Winter Assignment" Folder properly formatted (according to the name file "00.last.first.ID.date.winter").

Sorry about the buggy computer and/or typos today. Loftus and Palmer might beat me up for falsifying their experiment with my shoddy scientific integrity.

Here is a recording of the last part of the period (when I got my iPhone back from picture taking). http://www.evernote.com/shard/s109/sh/f9d172e1-e59a-4b26-92d1-0e6a880fd1e4/3abfe81bf26189a32cbbe7147 6976134
