learning journal

INTRODUCTION

I am Hubert Were, a Kenyan by birth and a finalist at UoPeople taking three courses in the current term. In this course, PHIL 1402 Quality Management, I look forward to achieving fundamental skills and knowledge in inquiring and critical thinking to help me better run a business that meets customer requirements in a motivated environment.

LEARNING JOURNAL ACTIVITIES

a) How helpful is the instructor being? How could the instructor be more helpful?

The instructor is a great energizer for the group. He gives alternative approaches to acquisition of knowledge. For instance, he guided me on how to answer questions in a different way in the learning journal by expressing peers dialogue in form of a play/drama.

b) Group Interaction - How is the group interacting? Are we a cohesive bunch? Are we doing our work?

The group is mutually interactive in a respectful manner and observing the code of ethics governing virtual learning environment. The peers have strong team work and passion in doing course work.

c) Did I contribute significantly to the discussion? What was my single most important contribution to the discussion? Why?

I did contribute significantly to the discussion forum by responding to the questions. My most important contribution was on Kant’s epistemology which showed that ideas constitute our experience. This translates to the knowledge we have from UoPeople to be our experience.

d) What would I change about the way things are going right now? Is there enough order/structure to what we are doing, or are things a bit too anarchic for my taste?

Things are not very okay as I expected especially in the graded quizzes. The marks are low. I need to pull up my socks since I have no excuse for there is adequate order in...

...ust exist rules for thought called categories which are innate and necessary for understanding.

b) Knowledge has both form and content.

c) Ideas constitutes our experience

d) There are two types of knowledge; phenomena and noumena.
