The Sceptical Academic: Two possible futures

http://www.scepticalacademic.blogspot.com/2015/01/two-possible-futures.html

Sceptical thoughts about academic knowledge, universities, research, teaching, etc by percybeach@gmail.com. Friday, January 16, 2015. I've just had another conversation with my friend, Zoe, who has solved the riddle of travelling backwards through time. She's just returned from the year 2050: her memories of the future are hazy but fascinating. The second future had much more in common with the present. The school curriculum was virtually unchanged, university degrees now lasted for ten years, cuttin...

The Sceptical Academic: Being a student in the twenty first century: challenging the consensus

http://www.scepticalacademic.blogspot.com/2014/02/being-student-in-twenty-first-century.html

Sceptical thoughts about academic knowledge, universities, research, teaching, etc by percybeach@gmail.com. Tuesday, February 11, 2014. Being a student in the twenty first century: challenging the consensus. Just been to a seminar on being a student in the twenty-first century. Lots of clich. The speaker encouraged all comments from the floor, so the clich. Engaged in a collaborative. With no right answers. And the teacher does not possess superior expertise. This was certainly the philosophy espoused an...

The Sceptical Academic: May 2014

Sceptical thoughts about academic knowledge, universities, research, teaching, etc by percybeach@gmail.com. Friday, May 30, 2014. Cambridge University closed to undergraduates. I'm lucky enough to have a friend who has solved the knotty problem of travelling backwards through time. She sent me this news report from the Mumbai based World News. Dated 1 January 2050:. But the thing that lit the fuse that destroyed degree courses was less obvious. It was the obsession with detecting and punishing "plagi...

Don’t try to find a coherent theme. There isn’t one. (Michael Wood, sothsemail@gmail.com). Archive for February, 2014. The negative value of money. February 24, 2014. If I were to be given 100,000 tomorrow, with no strings attached, I think this would not enhance my quality of life. My estimate of the value to me of this windfall is negative. I would be better off without it. Would I accept this money if it were offered to me? What should I as an individual do? Resist the temptation to do any paid work?

The Sceptical Agrarian

The Politics, Science, and Philosophy of Food and Farming. Wednesday, October 31, 2007. When food is plentiful and its supply seems secure, then food and agriculture are interesting subjects of conversation only to farmers, a few intellectuals, and policy makers. When the food supply is insecure, suddenly just about everyone finds food and agriculture an important topic. When food is unavailable, no other topic of conversation exists. John Perkins, Geopolitics and the Green Revolution.

Sceptical Buddhism | This site presents an interweaving of ideas drawn from the traditions of Buddhism and scepticism

This site presents an interweaving of ideas drawn from the traditions of Buddhism and scepticism. Hold lightly to your beliefs for someone, somewhere,. Quite reasonably, believes the opposite. How do we find a middle way between. Attachment, aversion and indifference? Question, enquire, celebrate,. Accept, be grateful, let go. I hope you’ll find something of interest in these pages and that you’ll explore some of the links. The opposite of anything I say. May be equally valid and useful. Keep an open mind.
