Today, the 9th of September, 2011, each person in the class partnered up and was blindfolded for a portion of time.
To me, this demonstrated quite a few things:
1) The empiricists belief in sensory perception.
2.) The importance of the emotions, specifically trust.
3.) The sharpened focus of my mind on the task at hand. It was quite similar to the day where Mr. Summers asked us to "feel" each and every step.
4) It highlighted each of the 4 senses that I had left. The fact that my hearing was more acute was the most obvious change.
I really liked this activity, and I felt that I was an excellent way of demonstrating what exactly we are able to perceive.
