Paradigm / Worldview Defined

A set of:

AssumptionsConceptsValuesand Practices

that constitutes a way of viewing reality for the community that shares them, especially in an intellectual discipline.

Paradigms/ Worldviews are large scale.

A paradigm/worldview is a set of beliefs,

held by an individual, group, or civilization which they hold to be true and precludes them from seeing any other

possibilities.

Paradigms/worldviews then, are perspectives from which we view issues and develop solutions.

According to Danny:

Summer lovin' had me a blastI met a girl crazy for meSummer days driftin' away, to uh-oh those summer nights

She swam by me, she got a crampI saved her life, she nearly drownedSummer sun, something's begun, but uh-oh those summer nights

Took her bowling in the arcadeWe made out under the dockSummer fling, don't mean a thing, but uh-oh those summer nights

While she got friendly down in the sandWell she was good you know what I mean

So I told her we'd still be friendsWonder what she's doing nowSummer dreams ripped at the seams, but oh, those summer nights

According to Sandy:

Summer lovin' happened so fastMet a boy cute as can beSummer days driftin' away, to uh-oh those summer nights

He ran by me, got my suit dampHe showed off, splashing aroundSummer sun, something's begun, but uh-oh those summer nights

We went strolling, drank lemonadeWe stayed out 'till ten o'clockSummer fling, don't mean a thing, but uh-oh those summer nights

He got friendly, holding my handHe was sweet, just turned eighteen

It turned colder - that's where it endsThen we made our true love vowSummer dreams ripped at the seams, but oh, those summer nights

Paradigm Shift definedWhen anomalies or inconsistencies arise within a given

paradigm and present problems that we are unable to solve within a given paradigm, our view of reality must change, as must the way we perceive, think, and value the world.

We must take on new assumptions and expectations that will transform our theories, traditions, rules, and standards of practice. We must create a new paradigm in which we are able to solve the insolvable problems of the old paradigm.

Example of a Paradigm Shift

The Copernican system (the sun at the center of the universe) overthrew the Ptolemaic (the earth at the center) one.

Example of a ParadigmWe see the world in terms of Sustainability.
