Philosophical Pieces

Good afternoon ☀

On Thursday we talked about the philosophy of our class.  Google defines philosophy in two ways: 1.) The study of the fundamental nature of knowledge, reality, and existence, esp. when considered as an academic discipline.  2.) A set of views and theories of a particular philosopher concerning such study or an aspect of it.  The reason why our class revolves around philosophy, is because there is no right or wrong answer in Concept Development.  Some of my classmates mentioned that they've never had a class like this one before, where they're uncertain if they're doing well in the class or not as they do the assignments but not get a grade in return.  I can relate, but I believe that as long as we complete them, we're earning the points to pass the class.  Also, I see each assignment/project as puzzle pieces.  Our mission is to understand the concept for every piece as best as possible.  In addition, the more pieces we collect they'll help to develop our creative minds as we complete our puzzles.  Furthermore, everyone's pieces is different.  Hmmm... how could I explain it.  I picture every puzzle as our own perspective to solving the problem that it's been given, and we all have different perspectives; therefore, even if we all complete our puzzles, they will all differ... but, based on the same concept.  In conclusion, Prof. Jimmy gave us our final piece to complete our puzzles.  It would be a one minute video, uploaded on YouTube, which culminates our demonstration of what we can do based on the BIG idea/concept during our journey.  In other words, we have to show it off to our audience.  We also have to create a postcard that includes the URL to promote the video and its content.  I'm fascinated to create my own postcard and video, even though I'm not sure yet what my contents will be '^,~\
