4th week - Bates textbook - Nietzsche

Week 4 * Nietzsche p. 19 * Nietzsche believed educators should treat students as "fires waiting to be rekindled" (Bates, 2023, p.19) rather than "empty vessels waiting to be filled" (Bates, 2023, p. 19). This philosophy can be implemented into new content as it piggy backs and references prior experiences and teachings to help students understand information better. Allow students to reflect and share their own experiences so other classmates can understand different perspectives or experiences like their own. Students should have the opportunity to be active in their own learning and clarify understanding through discovery. Truth according to Nietzsche, " is a matter of perspective" (Bates, 2023, p. 18) meaning the vision of seeing things a particular way. His theory of perspectivism is based on knowledge, judgements, and interpretation.
