Control theory

and mythologies may be part of God’s general revelation. I think it is a common view among Christians that God created an innate moral code within us. How powerful would it be if cognitive science of religion found experimental evidence for such a theory? Instead of harming Christianity, discoveries like these would strengthen the core foundation of the Christian faith. What if cognitive science of religion was able to scientifically support the idea that all people have an inborn nature to be…

involve past events, which cannot be tested. Take, for example, the Big Bang Theory or the Theory of Biological Evolution as it pertains to the past; both are theories that explain all of the facts so far gathered from the past, but cannot be verified as absolute truth, since we cannot go back to test them. More and more data will be gathered on each to either support or disprove them. The key force for change in a theory is, of course, the scientific method. A scientific law, said Karl Popper, the…

Animal Experimentation Many people say that animal experimentation is a cruel thing to do. They disagree on the fact that animals are tested yet others think that it should be legal even if it is harsh for many reasons. I say animal experimentation should stay legal and it’s a sacrifice that we have to make. Over the years, many types of medicines have come out. From Viagra to Tylenol, all these medicines might not be here today if it wasn’t for animal experimentation. Yes most of the time…

is not one that takes place in isolation but something that is personal to every pupil, and rather than teaching traditionally in which the teacher imparts knowledge to the pupils, pupils are lead to ‘discover’ knowledge themselves. This learning theory places great importance on learning as a social activity. This in the context of science is important, as scientific research is a collective achievement as well as pupils understanding the development of scientific research presentation in…

Science has revolutionized our world with unimaginable advancements in technology. From the brilliant minds of William Whewell (who coined the English word “science”) to the modern day scientist like Stephen William Hawking (who contributed to the vast amount of today’s knowledge on cosmology and quantum gravity). Furthermore, science has become so advanced in this day-in-age that it has been split apart into different sections that each cover a broad range of technological information,…

Introduction Forming written arguments isn’t always a simple task for elementary students. Developing students’ writing isn’t easy either but having enough scaffolding and making sure the expectations are clear help students along the way. There are many ways in which we can help students develop their informational writing. Through argument and discussion students can learn how to question other people’s ideas and thoughts, develop and formulate their own ideas, and refine them. Teachers…

different and similar. A historical explanation is an account of an event or events in history and it can reveal when the event takes place, how it takes place and the events that prompted that particular event to take place. A scientific explanation is a theory that reveals the reason why phenomena occur in the natural world. Although historical and scientific explanations are acquired through different means, knowledge in History and Natural Science is discovered and scientists and historians…

Prior to conducting this experiment, my hypothesis was that I was going to offend all of the people involved, so I prepared myself mentally for the backlash and negative feedback. Surprisingly, there was a range of emotions and reactions to me breaking this folkway. Emotions ranged from being completely offended and disgusted to finding it hysterical. The reactions from the people fluctuate from being angry and notifying the manager to asking me to join them for dinner. The experiment was…

The debate between E.H. Carr and G.R. Elton signifies the conflict between the “Old School” of historical studies and the Revisionist model. Carr proposes that there exists within historical studies the need for interpretation, and that there is no such thing as a universalized “truth” or “fact”. This is evocative of the Postmodernist phenomenon to critique and rethink approaches to history, which I will discuss later in this paper. Elton, on the other hand, emphasizes the universal “truth”…
