As you look at your child’s 2nd grade math text, you focus on 5 + 7 = 12. Then you look out the window and see a tree, a cloud, a person saving a toddler from a shallow pond. What would Plato say of the numbers mentioned and the particular things and action, in his larger scheme of describing reality and being able to know reality? According to Plato, how is it that we know the things and action mentioned? Give a refutation of Plato’s. (In the book:  Philosophy Here and Now by Lewis Vaughn.
What is Rene Descartes’ conclusion about deriving knowledge from our sense experience? How reliable is sense experience, according to Descartes? (In the book: ( Philosophy Here and Now by Lewis Vaughn.)
What is John Locke’s response to rationalist philosophy? Do we come born with innate ideas? If not, then how do we come to know of things such as 5 + 7 = 12, a tree, a cloud, a person saving a toddler from a shallow pond?  (In the book: Philosophy Here and Now by Lewis Vaughn.)
According to George Berkeley, there are no material things. What does perception have to do with his argument supporting his controversial theory? Also about all that stuff under your bed and in your closet? No one is perceiving those things, so do they fail to exist? How does Berkeley account for the unperceived things under your bed and in your closet? 
A later philosopher, also an empiricist philosopher, as was Locke and Berkeley, David Hume describes the two ways that we can know something. What are those two ways? Hume was a skeptic. He wondered about how we can know from cause-effect events what will happen in the next instant. Do we really see a causal connection? What is his response to this question? (in the book:  Philosophy Here and Now by Lewis Vaughn.)
