What I learned from the youtube video.

What is **Knowledge.** Is a justified true belief.

in order for someone (s) to know proposition (p) p has to be true p has to be justified s has to believe p
 * Platos Definition**

Knowledge is the out come of a process which continues over time

known known=knowledge known unknown=belief unknown unknown=unknown knowledge

Knowledge by conviction Knowledge by inraspection/introspection Knowledge by Acquaintance Knowledge by practice
 * Personal Knowledge**

Knowledge by instinct
 * Subconscious Knowledge**

Justification of knowledge **Correspondance**: comparing with the facts of senses, experience and knowledge. **Pragmatic**: what you know that can justify your personal belief. **Coherence**: by defenition.

Truth Test: **PIE**

Public: everyone has access to the knowledge claim, is it true to society? Independent: personal and sole access to the knowledge claim, is it true to you? Internal: will it still be true over time?

**Universal truth** is when all of PIE is answered to with a 'yes'.

Knowledge Issues A knowledge claim is someones point of view

Does the knowledge issue contain problematic concepts? What assumptions are being made? What W.O.Ks are involved? To what A.O.K does the claim belong to? Is the knowledge claim culture bound? What knowledge issues does the claim involve? What counter claims can be made? What are your views on the claim?
