Scholasticism (deriving from the Latin <em>scholasticus</em> “belonging to the school”) was a method of thought used in some European universities during the Middle Ages (1100-1500 A.C.). Scholasticism was widely used until 1600 when the Renaissance began to dominate education in Europe. Although Scholasticism was no longer used, many of its principles continued to be part of the new renascent ideas of such as Christian Humanism.
Some of this Scholastic’s principles developed by the Christian Humanism were:

- A disclosure of ideas from some Roman and Greek philosophers like Plato.
- The finding of more logic and stronger arguments that lead an answering of some questions about life and humanity.
