Knowledge and the Knower
Knowledge and the knower explores the relationship between knowledge and holder of it, my prompt explores how the knower influences the method in which information and knowledge is spread, and the influential role this plays on the context of the knowledge and its acception or rejection
What is context?
Context is the situation during which knowledge is presented. A few examples are the perspectives of the recipients, interpretation of text, the culture of society and the recipients and the platform through which this knowledge is spread. These are some key aspects of knowledge that can cause information to be accepted or rejected, and play a key role in the consumption and spreading of knowledge
Key Claims
Context consists of individual perspectives, interpretations of opinianted information and the truth
Some knowledge is heavily opinionated or not essentially factual but can still be accepted or rejected without proof
Knowledge Frameworks
Scope
The scope consists of the range of context and its influence on how one receives and interacts with knowledge. The type of knowledge, its limitations, sources and history are a key part of its scope and influence its acceptance or rejection
Perspective
Perspectives are the foundation of knowledge and its communication. Knowledge has multiple perspectives, its recipients have multiple perspectives which can influence knowledge greatly. Perspectives result in confirmation bias too, which is a key part of misinformation, as people readily absorb and spread knowledge that confirms their beliefs and are more likely to reject knowledge that goes against their beliefs or preconceived notions. Resulting in perspective being a key aspect of information and communication
