Where is the boundary between actual declarative knowledge (factual content) and educative experiential learning (reflection and critical thinking skills)? How do you fit those two together in one teaching/learning experience? The boundary between factual content and educative experiential learning is at the point where the instructor creates questions to the students, rather than dictate answers. While factual content informs learners to pick the lesson in its absolute form, an experiential teaching method elicits the need for more research and a thirst for removing the layers that raise more information about the subject. PowerPoint presentations and notes from the ...

However, this can be treated as individual’s perception, and researchers would want to confirm whether such stereotype is true. Some individuals tend to place judgment ...

How social interactions may change based on the size of a group

Simmel argues that the larger the group, the more an individual becomes more secluded, alone and segmented. Based on the size of the group, Simmel's views were somehow indefinite. On one hand, he argues the bigger the group of people, the better for an individual. Based on arguments, it is clear that the large the group of individuals, the harder it becomes to exert any control to an individual, by it is very likely the person will become distant and impersonal (Simmel 47). In the smallest social groups, social interaction is usually more intense as opposed to large groups ...
