Week 0: What i want to learn about Philosophy

Not really knowing to much about Philosophy one thing that really caught my attention while reading the syllabus for this course was that we will be learning not to just read and understand but we will be learning to think like philosophers and the motives behind their way thinking. In my opinion this will make things more interesting and easier to learn because we are not only addressing HOW things were done we are addressing the reason WHY. I was always hesitant to take a Philosophy because i thought it would be like a history class but knowing a little information i'm quite excited to learn something new and expand my ways of thinking.
