Aristotle
Aristotle was a very famous Greek philosopher, writer, and teacher. He was born in 384 BC in the town of Stagira. Aristotle started his own school in Athens, which was called Lyceum. He walked around while he was teaching, and made his students follow him. He believed that interaction with objects was the best way to learn and this turned out to be a big part of his teaching. Aristotle was quite fascinated by marine biology, although it wasn't his best subject.
One of his main philosophic ideas was his own concept of logic. He used his ideas about learning from material objects to come up with the reasoning that people are able to learn anything in the world. His process involved describing objects based on their characteristics, state of being, and actions. Aristotle has written about two hundred works, thirty one of which are still in circulation. His ideas and works continued strongly through the Renaissance, and are still active today.
