Write about: empiricism as best theory in world
What have you written so far?
I wrote the defination and what Locke, Berkeley, Hume talk about it. What else I can write in this?
What's the assignment? How long is it to be? Is your opinion important and supposed to be in the essay?
Did you discuss tabula rasa?
Others are Aristotle, William of Ockham, Francis Bacon, and John Stuart Mill.
The assignment says to tell why this method is the BEST.
No I did not mention that... ya its imporatnt... its kind of essay
How long is it to be? How many words?Quote:

He argued that the "associations of ideas" that one makes when young are more important than those made later because they are the foundation of the self: they are, put differently, what first mark the tabula rasa. In his Essay, in which is introduced both of these concepts, Locke warns against, for example, letting "a foolish maid" convince a child that "goblins and sprites" are associated with the night for "darkness shall ever afterwards bring with it those frightful ideas, and they shall be so joined, that he can no more bear the one than the other"[p.357].
"Associationism", as this theory would come to be called, exerted a powerful influence over eighteenth-century thought, particularly educational theory, as nearly every educational writer warned parents not to allow their children to develop negative associations. It also led to the development of psychology.
Can I have that page link. I just want to write 3 or 4 pages.
