Hello, This blog is part of our study. This Existentialism: Flipped Learning: Ask Questions was assigned by Dr. Dilip Barad sir Department of English MKBU. In this task, we have to refer to the videos based on Existentialism and Flipped class and write our responses to the Questions.
When we learn about Existentialism First we need to understand the concept of Flipped Learning.
What is Flipped Learning?
We saw How Dilip Barad sir writes on Flipped learning Network in the blog.
This Video is based on Flipped Learning.
These images are Based on the Socratic method of learning.
Flipped learning is an instructional strategy and a type of blended learning in which students learn new content online, usually by watching video lectures, before coming to class. This allows class time to be used for activities such as problem-solving, discussion, and projects, which can be led by the teacher or done in small groups. The goal of flipped learning is to make the most efficient use of classroom time and to personalize learning for students.
In a traditional classroom setting, teachers typically present new information to students during class and then assign homework for students to practice and reinforce that information. In a flipped classroom, students watch video lectures or read posted materials outside of class, which allows them to come to class with a basic understanding of the material. This means that class time can be spent on activities that help students to go deeper into the material, such as problem-solving, discussion, and projects.
One of the key benefits of flipped learning is that it allows students to learn at their own pace. Students can pause and rewind video lectures as needed, and they can also go back and review materials as needed. This can be especially helpful for students who need extra time to understand a concept or who learn better through visual aids.
Flipped learning also allows teachers to personalize instruction for their students. By using online materials and interactive activities, teachers can provide students with different pathways to learning based on their individual needs and learning styles. Furthermore, flipped learning allows teachers to use class time for active learning activities, such as group work, hands-on projects, and discussions, which can help students to better understand and retain the material.
Flipped Learning Network:-
The Flipped Learning Network (FLN) is a global non-profit organization that supports educators in implementing the flipped learning approach in their classrooms. The organization provides resources, training, and support for teachers who want to flip their classrooms and improve student learning outcomes.
The FLN provides teachers with a wide range of resources and support to help them implement the flipped learning approach. This includes professional development opportunities, access to a community of other flipped learning educators and a library of instructional materials and best practices.
Existentialism: Learn to think and 'be' an Existentialist
Existentialism is a philosophy that emphasizes the individual's unique experience of the world and the freedom to make choices that shape their lives. It emphasizes the existence of the individual and the inherent meaninglessness of life. To "be" an existentialist, one must learn to think for themselves and take responsibility for their own choices and actions. This means accepting that life has no inherent meaning and that it is up to the individual to create their own purpose.
One of the key concepts of existentialism is the idea of freedom. Existentialists believe that individuals are free to make choices and shape their own lives and that this freedom is both a blessing and a curse. With freedom comes the responsibility to make choices that align with one's values and beliefs.
Another important concept in existentialism is the idea of authenticity. Existentialists believe that individuals should strive to be true to themselves and not conform to societal expectations or societal norms. To learn to think and 'be' an existentialist, it's important to read and study the works of existentialist philosophers such as Jean-Paul Sartre, Martin Heidegger, and Friedrich Nietzsche. It's also important to engage in self-reflection and explore one's own values and beliefs. One can practice being more mindful in daily life and making choices based on their own values, rather than societal expectations.
We have to refer to the Teacher Dilip Barad sir's blog which is based on https://blog.dilipbarad.com/2016/09/existentialism-video-resources.html
Existentialism: Video Resources.
1. Video: What is Existentialism?
In this video, The speaker is likely discussing the key concepts and ideas of existentialism such as the emphasis on individual freedom and responsibility, the inherent meaninglessness of life, the concept of authenticity, the importance of self-reflection, and the exploration of one's own values and beliefs. In this video, the speaker mentioned many Existentialists and writers' names as... Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Dostoevsky, Kafka, Heidegger, Shestov, Hesse, Sartre, Beauvoir.In this video there are also three sides of existentialism; freedom, passion, and individuality.
Existentialism:-
Existentialism is a philosophical movement that emphasizes the existence of the individual as a free and responsible agent determining their own development through acts of the will. It emphasizes individual freedom and choice and often deals with themes of meaning, purpose, and existence in a seemingly meaningless world.
Existentialists argue that individuals must create their own meaning in life, as traditional sources of meaning and purpose such as religion or societal norms are insufficient. They believe that life has no inherent meaning, and it is up to the individual to give their life meaning through their actions and choices. Some of the key figures in existentialism include Jean-Paul Sartre, Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Heidegger, and Simone de Beauvoir. Sartre's concept of "existentialism" was popularized in the 20th century, and his ideas have had a significant impact on literature, theatre, and popular culture.
Existentialism also has had a significant impact on psychology and psychotherapy. The humanistic and existential therapies emphasize the freedom of the individual, and the importance of personal responsibility, self-awareness, and self-discovery. It is important to note that existentialism is not a specific belief or ideology, but rather a way of thinking that emphasizes the individual and their freedom and responsibility. It is a broad and diverse movement that encompasses many different perspectives and ideas.
2. Video: The Myth of Sisyphus: The Absurd Reasoning (Feeling of the Absurd)
In this video, the speaker talks about Absurd Reasoning. Albert Camus was Focused on the Matter of suicide.
This is the phrase from the movie Stay "An elegant suicide is the ultimate work of art".
In Camu's book "The Myth of Sisyphus" he argues that individuals must accept the absurdity of their existence and find meaning in their own actions, rather than seeking it in a higher power or external source.
3. Video: The Myth of Sisyphus: the notion of philosophical suicide
In this video, Albert Camus tells about The notion of philosophical suicide refers to the idea that individuals can choose to end their own existence as a means of escaping the absurdity of life. Camus argues that this is not a viable solution, as it is a rejection of life itself and therefore an acceptance of the absurdity. Instead, he argues that individuals must accept the absurdity of their existence and find meaning in their own actions and relationships with others.
In other words, philosophical suicide is the rejection of life, while the absurd hero, Sisyphus, is the one that embraces it with open arms. The way out is not through death but through the acceptance of the human condition.
