If I were a teacher, I would be filled with excitement and enthusiasm for the opportunity to shape the minds of young learners. I would approach each day with energy and dedication, striving to create a classroom environment that is both engaging and supportive.
As a teacher, my primary goal would be to inspire a love of learning in my students. I would strive to create a curriculum that is challenging and rewarding, and that allows students to explore their interests and passions. I would also work to foster a sense of community in my classroom, encouraging students to support and learn from one another.
In order to be an effective teacher, I would also need to be patient, understanding, and open-minded. I would listen to my students' concerns and questions, and do my best to help them find the answers they need. I would also be willing to adapt my teaching style to meet the needs of individual students, whether that means providing extra support for struggling learners or offering more advanced material for those who are ready for a greater challenge.
In addition to being a teacher, I would also strive to be a role model for my students. I would set high standards for myself and work to live up to them, always striving to be the best version of myself. I would also encourage my students to set their own high standards and to work towards achieving their goals.
Overall, if I were a teacher, I would be deeply committed to helping my students grow and succeed. I would work hard to create a positive and supportive learning environment, and to inspire a love of learning in all of my students.
Literature And Science by Aldous Huxley
The JLS is dedicated to the publication of academic essays of six to nine thousand words on the subject of literature and science, broadly defined. We read in the ancient Upanishads of the Hindus that everything in nature vibrates with the very same life force that quickens the mind and body of man. But when we talk of knowing Greek and Roman antiquity, for instance, which is the knowledge people have called the humanities, I for my part mean a knowledge which is something more than a superficial humanism, mainly decorative. Kings have been their nursing fathers, and queens have been their nursing mothers, but not for this. This education passed from Greece and Rome to the feudal communities of Europe, where also the warrior caste and the priestly caste were alone held in honour, and where the really useful and working part of the community, though not nominally slaves as in the pagan world, were practically not much better off than slaves, and not more seriously regarded. Cheerfully accepting the fact, let us advance together, men of letters a "Thought is crude, matter unimaginably subtle.
Therefore, in seeking to gratify this instinct in question, we are following the instinct of self-preservation in humanity. The shape and design of the Universe is written into books as a story that seems most accurate, but it is still created from the imaginations of humans trying to piece together the world around them. The JLS was founded in 2007, and produced its first issue at the beginning of 2008. «The twentieth century witnessed greater interaction between science and culture» Moreover, some scientists have made important contributions to art, especially literary. It is very certain that the earth is not the chief body in the material universe, and that the world is not subordinated to man's use. At any rate, with men in general the instinct exists.
Nay, "has not an Englishman models in his own literature of every kind of excellence? But this the men of science will not do for us, and will hardly even profess to do. This world of total human experience is the world that Book description from the first-edition 1963 dust jacket: This is a book about one of the most important problems of our time—the problem of How to Make the Best of Both Worlds, the world of science on the one hand and, on the other, the world of total human experience, public and subjective, individual and cultural. Interesting indeed, these results of science are, important they are, I and we should all of us be acquainted with them. This means that science is present in literature, in the form of topics, characters, and even authors, which as we will see, allows literature to be used as a means to spread knowledge about science and its social context. The more people begin to relate current knowledge with human experience, the more adept society will be. From his vitalist perspective, Goethe opposes chemical activity against that of the kingdom of mechanical laws. An objection may be raised which I will anticipate.
Lewis Literary experiences and liberal arts are one of the main ways a student can experience internal transformation; however, these literary experiences must be paired with heath and appropriate action and behavior Lee 95. The duly angry reactions, which these mistakes usually provoke, are not shown with the same intensity for scientific errors. In other words, the relationship between the investigative processes and its effects on human nature. I rarely agree with everything he says, but he always has his sights on something sensible to explain his point of view. ESPAÑOL: En este librito, Huxley estudia la relación entre literatura y ciencia, dos modos opuestos con los que el hombre trata de expresar su visión del mundo. He was gone two months later, dying on the very day Kennedy was assassinated, November 22, 1963.
Cheerfully accepting the fact, let us advance together, men of letters and men of science, further and further into the every-expanding regions of the unknown. This desire for good, Diotima assured Socrates, is our fundamental desire, of which fundamental desire every impulse in us is only some one particular form. Hay un detalle que no me ha gustado: el libro está lleno de citas, especialmente poéticas, pero a menudo Huxley no se molesta en señalar de qué obra o de qué autor están sacadas. She has given public lectures and appeared on a number of radio and TV programmes, speaking with varying degrees of authoritativeness on a number of history of science-related topics. Regarding this disagreement, as… Analysis Of The Abolition Of Man By C. And he concludes with a speculative discussion of the ways in which future men of letters may work up the raw materials of brand new fact and revolutionary hypothesis provided by science, transfiguring them into a new kind of literature, capable of expression and at the same time coordinating and giving significance to the totality of an ever-widening human experience. And here, I confess, I part company with the friends of physical science, with whom up to this point I have been agreeing.
So instead of blaming science and technology, we as citizens within a society need first to be more educated in science to be able to understand the causes of problems and we need to understand how to use science to seek better alternatives like the above, and our leaders, our politicians, need to understand this approach as well. İsminden edebiyat ve bilim arasındaki ilişkiyi inceleyeceği izlenimine kapılıyorsunuz ama ya ben doğru dürüst okumayı beceremedim ya da kitapta böyle bir şey yok. Grant that the supposed knowledge disappears its power of being made to engage the emotions will of course disappear along with it,—but the emotions themselves, and their claim to be engaged and satisfied, will remain. Moreover, it is quite true that the habit of dealing with facts, which is given by the study of nature, is, as the friends of physical science praise it for being, an excellent discipline. Literature at one end and Science at another. Special local and temporary advantages being put out of account, that modern nation will in the intellectual and spiritual sphere make most progress, which most thoroughly carries out this programme. To this objection I reply, first of all that his incompetence, if he attempts the discussion but is really incompetent for it, will be abundantly visible; nobody will be taken in he will have plenty of sharp observers and critics to save mankind from that danger.
Some of you may possibly remember a phrase of mine which has been the object of a good deal of comment, an observation to the effect that in our culture, the aim being to know ourselves and the world, we have, as the means to this end, to know the best which has been thought and said in the world. Not only does a man tell us that when a taper burns the wax is converted into carbonic acid and water, as a man may tell us, if he likes, that Charon is punting his ferry-boat on the river Styx, or that Victor Hugo is a sublime poet, or Mr. Given that we now understand science to be a form of thinking and formal reasoning which originated in the Renaissance, we will show the relationship between science and literature during that period, before looking at contemporary science, a time when this relationship has had more significant effects. This reality of natural knowledge it is, which makes the friends of physical science contrast it, as a knowledge of things, with the humanist's knowledge, which is, say they, a knowledge of words. Science and literature have a long history of coexistence. I once mentioned in a school-report, how a young man in one of our English training colleges having to paraphrase the passage in Macbeth beginning, Can'st thou not minister to a mind diseased? Contemporary poetry, drama and fiction contain remarkably few references to contemporary science—few references even to the metaphysical and ethical problems which contemporary science has raised. In ancient Europe, Socrates and Aristotle first conceived the rudimentary principles of scientific thought and laid down the laws of accurate thinking.
In addition to this, what is easily recognizable for a fellow countryman, may not be for people from other countries, using other languages. This is evident enough, and the friends of physical science would admit it. Quizá esta suposición fuese correcta en su día, pero hoy ya no lo es, pues el conocimiento literario casi ha desaparecido de la enseñanza no especializada. Essays on the major forms of literary and artistic endeavour are welcome. We can find plenty of examples in which scientists were also writers, and writers were also scientists.
