STOICISM: PEMANGLIAN TAMADUN ERA VUCA

-
Terbaca tentang stoicism. Kisah Seneca, sang penasihat nero, dan Aurelia, sang maharaja adil yang melupakan cinta hidupnya. Mungkin bijak pandai zaman ini terperangkap dengan falsafah ini? Memuliakan diri dengan rasional stoic sedangkan dunia semakin hampir kepada kezaliman total.

The Triad of Knowledge Disorder

The Triad of Knowledge Disorder From ego to emptiness to impotence: the three faces of knowledge in decay. By Zaky Jaafar (AI assisted) We live in an age of unprecedented knowledge. Data streams unceasingly, scientific discoveries multiply daily, and technologies advance at a speed previous civilizations could hardly imagine. Yet in spite of these accomplishments, there is a growing sense that humanity is not wiser but more confused, fragmented, and endangered than ever before. Our age has bred a peculiar paradox: we are clever but not wise, powerful but disoriented, connected but alienated. This paradox suggests that the problem is not a lack of knowledge but a distortion within knowledge itself. The disorder is not quantitative—more data will not save us—but qualitative: knowledge has been stripped of its transcendent anchor, its unifying telos, and its integrative wholeness. To name this crisis, I propose what I call the Triad of Knowledge Disorder, consisting of three interwoven ...

While they insist on what cannot be done, our philosophy should focus more on what can possibly done. Our industry is dealing with liberating human mind. We educate people to invite possibilities, explore opportunities. Instead of busy putting up fences, we should at every opportunity creates opening.

Sumber foto: AI Oleh Fikir Lestari Taksonomi Bloom telah begitu menguasai imaginasi dan amalan pendidikan kontemporari sehingga ia sering diterima sebagai kerangka semula jadi pembelajaran, khususnya dalam perancangan kurikulum dan penilaian. Artikel ini bertujuan mencabar penerimaan tidak kritis tersebut dengan membaca semula andaian Taksonomi Bloom melalui lensa ta’dib seperti yang dihuraikan oleh Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas (1991), serta konsep individuality dalam Psikologi Individu Alfred Adler (1927; 1930). Kritikan Adler terhadap pemecahan manusia kepada fungsi-fungsi terasing mempunyai gema yang kuat dalam tradisi pendidikan Islam. Adler menegaskan bahawa manusia tidak boleh difahami sebagai himpunan fakulti yang beroperasi secara terpisah, kerana berfikir, merasa dan bertindak membentuk satu orientasi hidup yang bersatu (Adler 1927). Dalam kerangka Islam pula, ilmu tidak pernah difahami sebagai proses kognitif yang neutral atau bebas nilai. Ilmu sentiasa terikat dengan tuju...
