Descartes believes that human beings have priori knowledge of the unreal proposition, which means that knowledge does not rely on sense experience. He argues that human beings achieve knowledge through knowing certain realities naturally, and also through a type of rational insight that allows humans to take hold of certain realities rationally. He also argues that the fake knowledge human beings achieve through reasoning or naturally cannot be achieved in any other manner. He starts by asking how he can be sure of anything. He then builds up all types of imaginative and strange reasons as to why he should ...

Guidelines and funding for equal employment were presented in 1961 in an Executive Order signed by Democratic President J. F. Kennedy (Stewart, 2012). And then, the Supreme Court was the center of forming the foundational legal concepts of affirmative action (FAQ, 2003). And later, Republican President Richard M. Nixon supported employment equity by establishing federal contractors to meet affirmative action standards. Three decades later, 32 years after the 1964 Civil Rights Act, the California legislature passed a ban on affirmative action. The law had been initiated by California Proposition 209 which had been accepted in a popular vote. The ...

Introduction

Electrophysiology is the study of the electrical nature of biological cells and tissues. It is the basis of several ophthalmological techniques that can provide information about the retinal function. Three distinct electrical potentials have been identified in retina viz. Early receptor potential (ERP), electroretinogram (ERG), and electrooculogram (EOG). ERP is generated by the photopigment molecules in the outer part of visual receptors. ERG extends from pigment epithelium to the inner nuclear layer. EOG is a function of pigment epithelium but also depends on outer and inner layers of the retina.

The effects of bilingualism in a minority language on third language acquisition

Abstract
In the area of language acquisition, bilinguals differ from monolinguals in several ways. It is accepted that previous language knowledge is facilitative in developing proficiency in a new language and both the learner’s native and non-native languages can be sources of influence in acquiring a new language. Given the evidence that in some social situations knowledge of a second language is facilitative in learning a third, the paper investigates to what extent knowledge of a widely-spoken but non-official local language can be shown to be facilitative in this way. The students in this study are ...

The learning processes for both adults and children have similarities although adults are more focused at learning and absorbing information much faster than children. Adults come with responsibilities and experiences that help them learn faster. They are self-motivated, goal-oriented, and self-directed, thus, the approach to teaching adults should be a lot more different (QOTFC). This is where educational philosophy comes in which is composed of several ideologies that characterize what schools are expected to be and do. This paper will touch on the various educational philosophies and aspects relating the concepts to adult education.
