the second quality of teaching

Let me share my idea about of the second quality of teaching.

I want to have identifying particular items of knowledge as "common sense". According to Burhanuddin Salam (2005), common sense based on a strict construction of the term, consists of what people in common would agree on: that which they "sense" (in common) as their common natural understanding. Some people use the phrase to refer to beliefs or propositions that most people would consider prudent and of sound judgment, without reliance on esoteric knowledge or study or research, but based upon what they see as knowledge held by people "in common". Thus "common sense" referred to the knowledge and experience which most people allegedly have, or which the person using the term believes that they do or should have.

Common sense remains a perennial topic in epistemology and many philosophers make wide use of the concept or at least refer to it. Some related concepts include intuitions, pre-theoretic belief, ordinary language, the frame problem, foundational beliefs, good sense, and axioms. Common-sense ideas tend to relate to events within human experience (such as good will), and thus appear commensurate with human scale. For example, the people knew that the water is used to watering the flowers, the food to fulfill their side when hungry. Commonsense reasoning is the branch of artificial intelligence concerned with replicating human thinking. There are several components to this problem, including: developing adequately broad and deep commonsense knowledge bases; developing reasoning methods that exhibit the features of human thinking, including: the ability to reason with knowledge that is true by default, the ability to reason rapidly across a broad range of domains, the ability to tolerate uncertainty in your knowledge, the ability to take decisions under incomplete knowledge and perhaps revise that belief or decision when complete knowledge becomes available, developing new kinds of cognitive architectures that support multiple reasoning methods and representations.

Tulisan bapak tentang "the second quality of teaching" menurut saya belum mencapai tujuan. Boleh Bapak coba menulisnya lagi menggunakan Bahasa Indonesia saja, jika diramu dengan pengalaman Bapak tentu akan lebih baik. Originalitas tulisan Bapak tentu lebih penting dan enak dibaca.
