Full Description
This exam critically examines the social constructs of knowledge generated within the realms of science and culture. The theoretical bases will facilitate understanding of how knowledge is culturally negotiated and disseminated.
Recognizing the socially constructed nature of knowledge is essential, as it influences how scientific knowledge is perceived, validated, and integrated into cultural contexts. This enhances the discourse on epistemology within social sciences.
Students will be assessed on their ability to articulate these concepts verbally, demonstrating a clear understanding of the intersections between science, culture, and knowledge production. Critique of relevant theories will be a focus.
Exam participants are encouraged to consider various cultural contexts and their impact on scientific knowledge as they provide their verbal analyses.
