The idea for this project came about during one of my Critical Thinking classes. We were having a discussion and I asked my students to define "table," then "chair." For the most part these terms are referents, and one can easily point out what a table is, or give an example of a chair, but how does one define these terms? I began to compile a list of words of this sort - that were easily identifiable, but tough to define. Two of the terms that stuck out to me were "time" and "space." Both of these terms have multiple meanings but I ask, how do we define them? The epigraph for the project is a quote by J.P. Ward that encompasses what I hope the project will achieve.
