What are the fundamental differences between Western philosophies and Eastern ways of knowing? How does each culture generally view the world and education? How can you incorporate seemingly different ways of knowing into your curriculum?

Answer 1

There are many, many different cultures lumped into "Eastern" and "Western." My suggestion is that you zero in on one of each and then apply your question to only those. Otherwise, you'll be writing several books!

In addition to Writeacher's excellent sources, I suggest you check your own assigned readings to see what your teacher expects.
