Learnings, questions, comments, connections to TOK? After the discussion I have learned that different people has his own perspective. I learned that each and everyones perspective is affected by their culture and the country that they live in. Another insight is that we cannot entirely prevent biases in our decisions. I also learned how these biases can affect the domains of knowledge which are Science, Art, Ethics, and Religion.
