"How much of our knowledge depends on our interactions with other knowers?"​

Answer 1

Most of a person’s knowledge comes from and depends upon the interaction with others. We simply cannot have knowledge if you are isolated from others.

The person in the room does not have the luxury to leave the room like the human in the cave did to explore the world.

They pass on the knowledge that they have gained onto us. They also provide us with a language that provides us with the basis of our understanding. Our peers can give us information that they learned from their parents that we might have never heard or known before. Teachers can also help to enhance our knowledge. In school, teachers expand our knowledge in...

For example:

2. On the other-hand a student who has well educated parents and he/she lives in a stimulating environment . Will pose better communication skills, better knowldege and better intelligence.
