課程概述 |
什麼是知識？為假的信念顯然不是知識。但知識是為真的信念嗎？對一件事的知識似乎不僅僅只是對這件事的信念恰巧為真。知識還必須包含理據嗎？什麼是理據？知識只是有理據的為真信念嗎？知識有終極的根基嗎？理據的來源是什麼？是部份來自經驗？還是完全來自其他信念？什麼是科學知識？什麼是科學理據？如何區分科學與非科學？這門課將介紹對於上述議題的各種哲學想法。 |

課程目標 |
本課程的主要目標是瞭解當代知識論和科學哲學的最主要議題，以及學習如何分析和評價相關的理論。為了達成這些目標，本課程將非常依賴課堂討論，報告，和寫作。 |
|
課程要求 |
Each student is expected to read the assignments before class, attend every class, and participate in both in-class discussions and group discussions. There will be pre-lecture quizzes, which consist of 2 simple yes-no questions. These are designed to test whether you have read the assignments the lectures are about. There will be several group discussion and presentation sessions to provide a chance to articulate your own views. There will be two exams, consisting of several short essays. Exam essays should focus on showing your own philosophical assessment and argument about a given view. |
