While a student at the University of Washington in the United States, Lee studied two courses in philosophy – Introduction to Philosophy and Chinese Philosophy – and he applied what he had learned there to martial arts."Excerpt from "Bruce Lee as philosopher: 10 of the ideas animating his martial art style ‘jeet kune do’, such as letting nature take its course" ( South China Morning Post, 8 Dec 2019)See: https://www.scmp.com/lifestyle/entertainment/article/3040994/bruce-lee-philosopher-10-ideas-actor-imbued-his-martial-art7.

"I fully agree with you about the significance and educational value of methodology as well as history and philosophy of science. So many people today — and even professional scientists — seem to me like someone who has seen thousands of trees but has never seen a forest. A knowledge of the historic and philosophical background gives that kind of independence from prejudices of his generation from which most scientists are suffering. This independence created by philosophical insight is — in my opinion — the mark of distinction between a mere artisan or specialist and a real seeker after truth." --Albert Einstein (Letter to Robert A. Thorton, Physics Professor at University of Puerto Rico (7 December 1944) [EA-674, Einstein Archive, Hebrew University, Jerusalem].

  • Episode 64 Teaching Physics: Making Physics Relevant To Human Thought and Human Life

    Episode 64 Teaching Physics: Making Physics Relevant To Human Thought and Human Life
    2022/10/23
    In this episode I read Dr. Michael Fowler's "Teaching Heat: the Rise and Fall of the Caloric Theory" and discuss its significance. It recommends teaching physics historically, which also helps students learn science, logic, and reasoning, which they need for using thought in the world and they need for adult life.

    Note: sorry for some of the reading in the episode. I was tired, so my contacts were blurry, so I could not read too well sometimes. I should have put my glasses on before I started!

    It's a great article with lots of lessons.

    How does science develop? Do scientists always accept truth and reject falsity?

    What does history say? Scientists are nothing more and nothing less than human — and what do humans do? How do groups, cliques, bullies, cults, etc., work?

    Galileo was put under house arrest and was harassed for his scientific views. Someone at his time, Bruno, was burned at the stake for saying the earth went around the sun.

    Ignaz Semmelweiss was ridiculed for advocating doctors wash their hands before surgery, even though he had inductive evidence and proof.

    James Joule was ridiculed for claiming that heat was a form of motion, because ‘all he had was hundredths of a degree to prove his point.’

    Scientists of his day were committed to the “caloric” theory of heat. They rejected the idea that heat was a form of motion.

    We see failures on the part of some "scientists" throughout human history:
    -rejecting Aristarchus, Copernicus, Kepler, Bruno, Galileo on heliocentrism
    -rejecting Kolreuter that bees pollinate plants
    -rejecting Berger that the EEG was a useful tool
    -rejecting Mayer on energy conservation
    -rejecting some scientists who discovered that Killer Whales live in pods
    -rejecting some scientists who discovered that Wolves are social pack animals, not "lone killers"
    -Etc. Ad Infinitum.

    And the social group of scientists sometimes have errant, unfounded beliefs. Jane Goodall was the one who went and actually studied Chimpanzees to find out about them, instead of merely assuming things about them. She discovered that Chimpanzees eat meat, and are not merely fruit-eaters — a discovery anyone could have made if they’d have had the independence of thought to go look. Thank goodness for Jane Goodall!

    This kind of thing happens some all through human history. It is with us today.

    Why?

    Humans are social animals. We are not committed only to truth, but also to the group. Of course, the group needs to be committed to reality, else it suffers, fails, and dies, to the extent it departs from truth. But we need some group commitment to survive and thrive.

    There is a difference between science (a method of thought), the products of science, and the scientific community. An important difference students should learn deeply.

    In this episode I discuss the great, classic article "The Median Isn't the Message" by Stephen Jay Gould. We delve into the article, its meaning, and lots of the depth and breadth we can get out of it. It should be read and studied by every statistics teacher and statistics student -- and everyone else, it is so full of lessons.Contact Michael:1. Email: reasonrx@aol.com2.

"The Median Isn't the Message" by Stephen Jay Gouldhttps://www.edwardtufte.com/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=0003ms2. Left skewed vs. right skewedi. https://www.statology.org/left-skewed-vs-right-skewed/ii. https://www.cuemath.com/data/right-skewed-histogram/3. An article on Aristotle and science (high school- or college-level reading): https://galileoandeinstein.phys.virginia.edu/lectures/aristot2.html“To summarize: Aristotle’s philosophy laid out an approach to the investigation of all natural phenomena, to determine form by detailed, systematic work, and thus arrive at final causes. His logical method of argument gave a framework for putting knowledge together, and deducing new results. He created what amounted to a fully-fledged professional scientific enterprise, on a scale comparable to a modern university science department. It must be admitted that some of his work - unfortunately, some of the physics - was not up to his usual high standards. He evidently found falling stones a lot less interesting than living creatures. Yet the sheer scale of his enterprise, unmatched in antiquity and for centuries to come, gave an authority to all his writings.“It is perhaps worth reiterating the difference between Plato and Aristotle, who agreed with each other that the world is the product of rational design, that the philosopher investigates the form and the universal, and that the only true knowledge is that which is irrefutable. The essential difference between them was that Plato felt mathematical reasoning could arrive at the truth with little outside help, but Aristotle believed detailed empirical investigations of nature were essential if progress was to be made in understanding the natural world.”4. The BBC provides a great, honest tribute to Aristotle for his work in science and biology: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JN8ortM4M3oThe BBC program is also here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e12pbSHrzAs&list=PL2VcIjTwDHoLScpo2c26t-x3EdTP6WepL&index=15. From: https://www.theguardian.com/books/2014/oct/02/the-lagoon-armand-marie-leroi-aristotle-reviewExcerpt 1. "The Greeks are famous, perhaps notorious, for casting their science whole, from first principles, without troubling to examine the natural world it sought to explain. But Aristotle changed everything, providing lengthy accounts of fish and fowl, their lives, courtships, kinds, anatomies, functions, distribution and habits. They were often erroneous, but what sets Aristotle apart is his workmanlike attitude. One gets the impression of a practical man, given to neither the remote and crystalline idealism of his predecessors, nor the flights of fancy of later natural historians such as Pliny the Elder."Excerpt 2. "Darwin knew almost nothing of Aristotle until 1882, when William Ogle, physician and classicist, sent him a copy of The Parts of Animals he'd just translated. In his note of thanks, Darwin wrote: 'From quotations which I had seen I had a high notion of Aristotle's merits, but I had not the most remote notion of what a wonderful man he was. Linnaeus and Cuvier have been my two gods, though in very different ways, but they were mere schoolboys to old Aristotle.' “6. See also this article by Dr. James Lennox: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/aristotle-biology/7. A quote about Galileo that discusses the importance of Aristotle, reasoning, and a correct view of logic.In the book Galileo Galilei – When the World Stood Still, Atle Naess wrote:“Galileo’s radical renewal sprang, nevertheless, from the Aristotelian mind set, as it was taught at the Jesuits’ Collegio Romano: human reason has a basic ability to recognize and understand the objects registered by the senses. The objects are real. They have properties that can be perceived, and then ‘further processed’ according to logical rules. These logical concepts are also real (if not in exactly the same way as the physical objects).”8. A quote of Galileo himself that shows the importance of Aristotle to science and all human reasoning, and that identifies a basic principle of reason and logic: they are based on the evidence of the senses. "I should even think that in making the celestial material alterable, I contradict the doctrine of Aristotle much less than do those people who still want to keep the sky inalterable; for I am sure that he ...

    Episode 62 Grammar: Who Needs It? Who Cares? -- Those Who Think. (I.e., everyone.)

    In this episode I discuss what grammar is and why we need it. It ain't about blindly following rules or being rude to each other. Rather, grammar is how we put thoughts together so we can think better, so we can be better understood, so we can better understand others, so we can write and speak better at work, so we can teach and learn better, etc.Contact Michael:1.

This includes physical education, classroom education, special education, homeschool education, after school programs, summer camps, and anyone else who works with children for fitness, educational, or physical education purposes."Our Educator Certification Program is an innovative and fundamental movement certification for those who work with children in school-based settings."We offer a one day certification for all educators (MCE) and a more in-depth, two-day certification for physical educators (MCE-PE). Educators who take the one day certification will walk away with the knowledge and skills to strategically use essential natural movements to help students do their best learning, including self-regulation and community-building strategies, in any classroom setting."Along with learning the fundamentals in Day 1, Physical Educators will extend their knowledge on Day 2 by learning more movement skills as well as techniques for structuring and implementing natural movements into their physical education classes so that all students can better learn how to move their physical bodies and achieve health and empowerment."Learn more: https://www.movnat.com/event/2022-educator-certification-usa/3.

As a level 2 MovNat Certified Trainer, she draws upon her certification experience to design and implement her own MovNat program for 6th-8th grade students. And her students absolutely love it!"ii. "Audra’s application of MovNat is just one way to bring MovNat into a physical education class. There are many different ways to structure and implement Natural Movement in a school-based setting that also compliments pre-existing programs or curriculum. Audra suggests starting small, such as incorporating breathing and ground movement into the beginning of class or creating a 2-3 week mini unit. There are also cost-effective ways to build Natural Movement obstacles (think a 2×4 for balancing, a pull-up bar in the door frame, or rocks/logs for lifting) to create new movement opportunities for your students."4.

    Episode 59 Dr. Jon Morey on Fitness, Thriving, and Making the Most of the Outdoors
    2022/03/22
    Dr. Jon Morey joins us to discuss-being outdoors and making the most of it-benefits of nature-his background and fitness journey-physical therapy-our fitness culture-MovNat-and moreDr. Morey's bio: "Doctor Jon Morey’s career in the health sciences began in January 1988 when he stepped into the Korean Hapkido Academy. Hapkido, he quickly discovered, differed from most other martial arts, emphasizing the practice of joint locking and throws in addition to the more common milieu of kicks and punches."Dr. Morey became fascinated with Human Anatomy and the vulnerabilities of the body for self-defense, earning a 5th degree black belt in the process; but he wanted to understand more about how this information could be used in the promotion of health as well. This desire led Dr. Morey back to school where he graduated from the National University of Health Sciences with degrees in Chiropractic Medicine and Human Physiology. Doctor Morey also holds a B.A. in Anthropology and a B.S. in Human Biology both from the University of Michigan."After becoming a licensed and practicing Chiropractic Physician, Dr. Morey has continued his quest for improved patient health. One of the innovations he has incorporated into his clinic is MovNat®. Dr. Morey is a Movnat Master Trainer."MovNat®, is a physical education and fitness system based on the full range of natural human movements that prepare one to meet the contextual demands of daily life.
