Ancient Wisdom Meets Modern Education

Excellent job @peytpolwan10-jsh! Your presentation is very clear! I also appreciate the participation of the class.

For your extended reading, I uploaded the file World's Greatest Philosophers on MSTeams. Read it and respond to the questions below in the comment section:

• What aspects of Confucianism deserve commendation?
• How about Socrates' idea of evil? Is the problem primarily one of ignorance? Can education eliminate such evil? Explain your answer in three to five sentences.
• How about Aristotle's idea of happiness? Is it attainable?

About the Duka Report, I would like to repeat here the questions I raised in our online class:

• How can Duka logically justify the three components in his educational curriculum, such as the aspects of spirituality, intellectual growth, and character development, given the fact that his educational philosophy is one of idealism?
• What's the difference between nationalism and patriotism?
