England area on May 14th. It is here where the reader encounters the first evidence of Brereton’s A Breife and True Relation being a work of propaganda. Brereton does not go into any detail about the voyage across the Atlantic. There is no mention of the problems that he may have experienced on his first trans-Atlantic voyage, including: ocean conditions, health problems and illness, as well as his general experience being on a ship with a group of individuals that he may not have previously known.

What is it to know something? In evaluating arguments, one need to check for both validity and soundness. To know that an argument is sound, one has to know that the premises—or the supporting statements—are true. But is it even possible to know something? The study of what knowledge is and whether it is possible falls within a subfield of philosophical inquiry called EPISTEMOLOGY.…

Appropriately specific brief summary of MCK Test results. It was during week three that I completed the Mathematical Content Knowledge (MCK) test for the purposes of determining my level of understanding relating to certain mathematical concepts, such as multiplication, division, addition, and place value (Curtin, 2014). Before starting, I felt overly confident in my ability to successfully answer all the questions within the quiz, however, it was not until I skimmed through the questions that I began to think otherwise. The beliefs in myself concerning mathematics is one of duality: I know that I am more than capable of solving complex questions, yet I am also conscious of my lacking motivation behind the subject itself which stems from…

The form of reasoning I picked as one is interactive reasoning. I feel I have a competitive advantage in this area because I feel I can connect with people in a deeper, profound level as opposed to a superficial level. For example, when I speak with a person, I am always interested in finding out what is going on in his or her life, this allows me to understand the persons current mood while simultaneously granting me access to find a way to relate to the person I am interacting with. I picked scientific reasoning to be my weakest clinical professional reasoning because I think I have not practiced it enough.…
Published on January 10, 1776 by an Englishman later identified as Thomas Paine, Common Sense would alter opinions, spark action, and lead to change throughout the American colonies. Not only was Common Sense an important pamphlet for its views on democracy, government, monarchy, and independence but also for its significance on the Declaration of Independence. Paine’s most famous pamphlet was the first document to encourage independence from Britain and excite the colonists about the prospects of their new nation. The wording of the two documents and the rapid success as well as transformations Common Sense caused in colonial America demonstrate the strong significance of Common Sense on the Declaration of Independence. However, this significance,…
There are many factors that contribute to the decisions that are made as part of nursing clinical practice. Different types of knowledge are a large part of why novice nurses make the decisions they do. But there is something deep down inside that is really inexplicable, some say even impossible that is part of decision making too. Intuition, that urge to act a certain way without really knowing why, is an important part of why nurses, even the newest ones do the things they do. Robert, Tilley, and Petersen (2014), actually analyzed the idea of intuition and its role in the decision making of novice nurses.…

Biological perspective is how one is genetically influenced by our parents.…
