Professor Michael Smith of Princeton University

        On November 10th, Professor Michael Smith of the Department of Philosophy at Princeton University gave a lecture on the Suzaku expert at the Institute of Philosophy and Social Sciences, and gave an academic report entitled "From our knowledge to normative knowledge."

        In the lecture, Professor Michael Smith pointed out that one of the motivations for us to acquire knowledge is that we have a desire called "curious." Under its guidance, people began to pay attention to and think about a specific problem to achieve this desire.

        In addition, Professor Michael Smith also talked about his understanding of the phrase "I think so I am." He believes that we exist, and the order and order of time and space also exist. In the corresponding space-time positioning, we have the ability to think about problems. In the space-time environment, there is a universal connection between the elements, and some of the links have gradually been learned by people, and this is only. After mastering some of the knowledge, their curiosity will continue to push our cognition forward, which gradually enriches our knowledge system and forms normative knowledge.

        In the Q&A session, the teachers and classmates on the scene enthusiastically asked questions and had a heated discussion around the topic of the lecture.
