Reflection Paper III

Paradigms are defined as a set of rules and examples. It is all about how we recognize and understand things. I could say paradigm it is like morality and ethics, it is a way for us humans to see things as good or bad and have the courage to analyze all situations that we confront. Is there a way to explain human behavior? Yes there is because of paradigms there are actually a way to define and describe our actions and give us some type of judgment. As an author stated that the key to faming is the imposition of information on the situation, which means that fame is all the information that we got from an actions. It is the same thing I am doing right now, from all those readings I get information which I learn from them and explaining them in this paper that I am writing.
Paradigm shift which is also call revolution of science is a term that was created by Thomas Kuhn in a book that he wrote in 1962. That book was subject to describe the theory of science and it is also in contrast to his idea of normal science. According to the author, science is described as a series of peaceful interludes punctuated by intellectual violent revolutions. All those things that we discover and created in this world, we are the one that create the evolution of the word and that is what paradigm is about. It is also our perception of things, our inventions and our cultures. Culture, religion, gender, and occupation, all of them of are object of our paradigm, but on the other hand paradigms shift only deals with the scientific part which means invention of electronics or any kinds of inventions that men kind could create.
God is also part of our paradigm because we learned from time to time how to control our actions, which means what is good or not and what we should do or not. God is also part of our way of behaving.
