What words come to mind when you hear the word Philosophy?

Why do we need to study Philosophy?

⧪The word philosophy comes from two Greek words: philos

(love) and sophia (wisdom).

Philosophy is the study of general and fundamental questions

about existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind, and language.

Direction: Based on the picture below. Identify the branches of

Philosophy. Write your answer on your paper.

Epistemology

Epistemology is the branch of philosophy that considers how people come to learn what they know.
Derived from the Greek word episteme, meaning knowledge or understanding, epistemology refers to the
nature and origin of knowledge and truth. Epistemology proposes that there are four main bases of
knowledge: divine revelation, experience, logic and reason, and intuition. These influence how teaching,
learning, and understanding come about in the classroom.

Axiology

Axiology is the branch of philosophy that considers the study of principles and values. These values are
divided into two main kinds: ethics and aesthetics. Ethics is the questioning of morals and personal values.
Aesthetics is the examination of what is beautiful, enjoyable, or tasteful. In axiology education is more than
just about knowledge but also quality of life.

Logic
Logic is the branch of philosophy that seeks to organize reasoning. Students of logic learn how to think in a
structurally sound manner. Logic has two types: deductive and inductive reasoning. Deductive reasoning
involves examining a general case, deducing a general set of rules or principles, and then applying these
rules to specific cases. Inductive reasoning involves taking specific examples and considering the general
principles, rules, or cases that caused them.

Metaphysics

Metaphysics is the branch of philosophy that considers the physical universe and the nature of ultimate
reality. It asks questions like, What is real? What is the origin of the world? What is beyond the stars? Your
consideration of reality as an external creation or an internal construct can influence your metaphysical
beliefs and perspectives and your teaching. Regardless of your definition of reality, the exploration and
categorization of the physical universe form the foundation of several school subjects.

The history of philosophy as history, then, is a discipline in which the philosophical positions, principles,
and arguments of philosophers are presented, analyzed, and explained in the historical contexts of their
times.

WHAT’S MORE
Question 1: As friend of Angel and Mike, how will you react to the state
ments given?
As a friend, when two of our friends are involved in a situation or a quarrel, we have to remain neutral and
make time and effort to hear out both sides and see other angles of the story. Friends shall not tolerate
wrongdoings of our friends.
Explanation:
Here are some sayings about friendship that may guide you:

 Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm.  - Proverbs 13:20

 A friend means well, even when he hurts you. But when an enemy puts his hand round your shoulder - watch
out!  - Proverbs 27:6

 A troublemaker plants seeds of strife; gossip separates the best of friends.  - Proverbs 16:28

 An honest answer is the sign of true friendship.  - Proverbs 24:26

 Friends always show their love. What are brothers for if not to share troubles?  - Proverbs 17:17

When two of our friends are in the midst of a misunderstanding, it is best not to take sides unless you heard
them both. But if it concerns morality, integrity, and safety of a person, we must take a stand and draw a line with
the friendship.
