be excluded from these laws and if one gives in to their urge to act a particular way, they wont be defined as a moral person. You have to make rational decisions, but sometimes that may not be the case. Kant believes that one requires a master, someone who will help break the urge to be excluded from the laws that help maintain order. Once one uses rational reasoning and has a master to help ease the inclination, one will not be interfering with other people’s freedom. Everyone has the need for…
Consciousness lends a higher thought process, allowing humans to internally decide. Oddly, the same part of the brain that plans behaviors is linked to the emotion. Therefore, emotions and logic are interconnected. Rational decision requires emotional input and emotions can be reshaped by rational thinking. Humans can consciously reframe the meaning of feelings. In doing so, they reshape how the memory is recorded in the brain, increasing its effect. Critical thinking is an exhausting process.…

For this curriculum study, I chose third grade mathematics as my unit of study. As far as my objectives go, I would want my students to walk away from this particular section of fractions with the understanding of what a fraction is, the difference between the components of a fraction such as the numerator and denominator, knowing how to identify how many parts of a whole are shaded in, and knowing how to simplify a fraction. As far as my instructional method, I created an original prezi, which…
In fourth grade various new math ideas are presented and many students can face difficulties when new material is introduced. Difficulties are especially displayed when it comes to discovering decimals. Although decimals are introduced in fourth grade they are continuously presented in math thereafter. One common misconception held about decimals is the idea that the more digits that are presented in a number, the greater the value of the number. An example of this is students believing that 3…

Let 's explore the strengths first. I believe that my decision style of analytical played a role in helping to make a decision of choosing the five candidates for the position…
Rational Thinking According to Popkin and Stroll, logic can be defined as the most fundamental branch of philosophy that “deals with the nature of thinking itself” (237). However, the depth of understanding logic is so much more than ethical speculations and metaphysics. Whether or not something is deemed logical, depends on how consistent and coherent any particular piece of that reasoning is, as logic attempts to distinguish good reasoning from bad reasoning. This then can determine whether…

One of those constitutional quandaries is a test to see if there is a reason to treat people differently. The court needs to prove “rationally related to a legitimate government interest (pg. 155).” In other words, so long as there is a reason to treat people differently that is “rationally related to a legitimate government interest…
