Thomas Coleman Diversity in Science‚ Technology‚ Engineering‚ and Mathematics (DSTEM) Hegemony hides under the guise of many names. In his book the seventeen irrefutable laws of teamwork John Maxwell identifies the term “group think”‚ and warns against its power to blind productivity and narrow the focus of a team(Maxwell‚ 2001). He suggests that in every meeting there should be someone assigned the task of maintaining a view of opposition to the rest of the group. This form of hegemony

Importance of Literature vs. Science If we lived in a world without literature‚ learning only the sciences‚ would we be the same people?

It is also concerned with the use and merit of science and sometimes overlaps metaphysics and epistemology by exploring whether scientific results are actually a study of truth. In addition to these central problems of science as a whole‚ many philosophers of science also consider problems that apply to particular sciences (e.g.philosophy of biology or philosophy of physics). Some philosophers

In high school‚ I had the opportunity to learn about a number of different subjects‚ starting from introduction to engineering to world history. Out of the many choices‚ there was only one that captivated me: Biomedical science. When I walked into class on the first day of school‚ I saw a cadaver at the back of my classroom.
