You can read my opinion on knowledge, Plato's opinion and definitions,
and now i am proudly offering you an interview about education and knowledge with a teacher of maths - Ilze Sasonkina:
what do you think about students willingness to combine studies with work?
i think there are two sides of this. until work is not disturbing studies, i think it's positive. but when it starts to bother studies... sad that students often choose to work, because they want to live separate from their parents and the money they get from parents are not enough to live. it causes damage to studies.. and it's not acceptable.
what is your opinion about quality of education in Latvia?
i think the quality of education in Latvia is not changing lately, only the costs of it are growing. and then there is this question: why do i have to pay lots of money for such a small amount of education?
is it possible to place knowledge as the greatest value in the future of Latvia?
i am sure that knowledge is our wealth. but it depends on how we gather it and how we use it..

Plato's theory of knowledge
Knowledge is justified, true belief. That is the modern version of Plato's definition. On this view, our beliefs will only count as knowledge when they are true (accord with the objective facts) and when the person who holds the belief has evidence or justification for it.In Plato's theory of knowledge, reality operates as a standard against which belief and perception can be measured. Belief is created by perceptions of reality.
True belief alone is not the same as knowledge. In order to have genuine knowledge of reality, we must have both a true belief about it and sufficient justification (evidence) for that belief.

What is knowledge?
The sum of what is known.
There are many definitions of knowledge.
some of them you can see by visiting factmonster homepage. (just clik on the link..)
To my opinion, knowledge is what you learn in your lifetime and qualities you can use at your workplace, trying to give the best to the society.
knowledge is a thing that helps you to orientate in the information you get every day and to select the one you need and which is acceptable, usable.
knowledge allows you to be critic on things..
and therefore - knowledge is a power.
the power you can get on your own.

knowledge importance today
Today i started to read an article about knowledge. it changed my values to some extent, and made me think over things I'm doing and aims i am reaching for.
It was nothing new to me, that studies are very important, that it's the background for your future. that's how I've been educated in my family. but now i understand, how important it is globally.
first, knowledge is a treasure of our country. i read an article, where Latvian man abroad was asked to tell - what is the treasure of our country? is it the growing economics? production? growing science and research? the mans answer was - people. it might seem funny. but maybe it's the only thing which compete us with other countries and gives benefit for all the people together, globally. information, broader education about things and knowledge is a treasure which pushes our country forward better quality of living and success by cooperating globally with other countries. for example, China gives us the technology and clothes, e.t.c. but what do we can give to china? how can we compete with them?
second, in economics today, which is full of organizations, advertisements and growing competition, the only way to survive efficiently is to now things. to be educated. to be able to create new ideas and to be competent about things in broader view. knowledge - the keystone for success. you can read more about knowledge-based competition at allbusiness home page.
i am sure that education is necessary to provide a good company or to be good at doing your job. it is your treasure and you have to gather the knowledge as many as possible, because it will serve you in your professional career when competing with other people and companies. it is the background for success.
this is just a little part about this theme.. i am sure there is a lot more to write and talk about it, so i hope to receive some of your opinion.
