"When I asked where knowledge comes from, more than half ( 13 of 20) said, "from past experience" or from "tradition," or "other people." Only three mentioned that knowledge comes from one's brain or what one does. Several answers that call forth tradition were "How are you using that [the word knowledge}?" I say, "information knowing." He says, "Well, actually it began long ago-as accidents."(Anyon, 1981, p.29)
