EDF 6218 Discussion

Your Epistemology? Take a Survey

Unger, Draper, and Pendergrass (1986) reported that students may have difficulty understanding epistemologies that clash with their own, tacit beliefs. They suggested, therefore, that students should examine their personal beliefs about knowledge and ways of knowing. Complete the survey they provide (directions for self scoring are included). How might your score be interpreted? They also discuss a variety of reasons accounting for different epistemological beliefs among groups of individuals, including gender, for example. Ask your classmates to complete the survey and then discuss the results. What are possible reasons for the differences in your scores?

Report your score and interpretation and participate in this discussion.

Note: Submit your post and replies to the discussion in eLearning.
