In order to do this, apply what we have talked about in class, such as the ways of knowing, to something you have encountered in your everyday life. You should also be working on a 1 pg single spaced paper on either of the following prompts:1.Compare and discuss the following two quotes in the light of your understanding of human perception:
-”It seems that the human mind has first to construct forms independently before we can find them in things. Knowledge cannot spring from experience alone, but only from the comparisons of the invention of the intellect with observed fact.”
-Albert Einstein
-”The subtlest and most pervasive of influences are those which create and maintain stereotypes. We are told about the world before we see it. We imagine most things before we experience them.”
-Walter Lippman
2. What can be meant by the Panchatantra saying, ‘Knowledge is the true organ of sight, not the eyes’? Is it necessary to have clear ideas to see?
