Problem 1: Describe and discuss two of the main concepts in this chapter: The logic of a discipline, the importance of vocabulary in a discipline, fundamental and powerful concepts, the central question of a course, and the point of view of a discipline.
Problem 2: Think about the distinction Nosich makes between seeing the discipline you are studying as a system of thinking versus seeing it as a body of information. What would Nosich say are the key differences between these two ways of seeing? How might that affect someone taking a course in the discipline? What is the value/meaning of this distinction?
