2nd Grading Period • 1. You are half way through World History…good

job! Some of you KNOW what you need to work on in order to improve your grades. PLEASE retake tests- that is the BEST way to improve your grade.

• 2. What are your study skills/habits? Do you actually study for tests? How do you study? Do you make flashcards, highlight, re-read, re-watch Crash Course, read through the textbook, verbally explain material to others, etc??????

• 3. Are you turning in your binder for the notebook checks every unit? Remember they count for both a HW and QUIZ grade!

Unit 5 deals with REVOLUTIONS

As a brief overview:

•There are 4 topics in this unit:– 1. The Scientific Revolution– 2. The Enlightenment (Age of Reason)– 3. The American and French Revolutions– 4. The Industrial Revolution

• Welcome to MODERN HISTORY

Unit 5: The Era of Revolutions Topic 1: The Scientific Revolution

MAKE A LIST:Write down at least 5 things in your life that make your life better, but that you might not be able to create on your own.

Ex: I LOVE my coffee maker, but there is no way I could create it from scratch.

• Turning Points in History- The Scientific Revolution

Old Views before the Scientific Revolution

• Aristotle- 300 BC, Greek philosopher theorized Geocentric Theory• Ptolemy - 2nd Century AD, Greek astronomer agreed w/ Aristotle• Geocentric Theory – the earth is center of universe

– Universe made up of 10 spheres, earth in center– All planets/stars move in fixed orbits

Geocentric Theory

Ptolemy’s Universe

Keep in mind….

• The church backed up the Geocentric Theory. – Biblically, Creationism describes the earth

being created, thus it made sense to people that that earth WAS the CENTER of everything because there was a description of God creating it.

– The Roman Catholic Church was the SOURCE of power at this time.

Copernicus- 1500s• Polish astronomer

– Heliocentric Theory – the sun is center of universe– Earth and other planets rotate around sun– Earth rotates on axis

• Church wasn’t worried- JUST a theory, no absolute proof

Kepler

• German astronomer/mathematician– Confirmed Copernicus’ ideas– Proved planets had elliptical (oval) orbits around sun, not circular

Galileo (clip)

• Lived in Florence, Italy

• Built a telescope to observe surface of moon– Inspired by Dutch eyeglass maker – found moon wasn’t flat

• Saw moons orbiting around Jupiter, sunspots, etc.

• PROVED Copernicus’ Heliocentric theories CORRECT

• Greatly published his findings; called before Inquisition (Roman Catholic Church court)

• Forced to recant- lived last years of his life under house arrest and was also blind

Using your textbook, complete the following graphic organizer on significant scientists:

WHO: WHAT:

Newton:Newton:

Copernicus:Copernicus:

Galileo:Galileo:

Descartes:Descartes:

Isaac Newton• English

physics/mathematics professor– Wrote Principia (3 laws of

motion)

• Universal law of gravity• Calculus• Saw world as machine with

laws always operating the same way

• READ laws of motion to the right

Rene Descartes (“ Day-cart”)

• French thinker and mathematician– Emphasis on doubt and reason

• Doubt something- if you can’t prove it….

• “I think, therefore I am”– Famous quote proving he exists

because he is alive to question his existence….

• Father of modern rationalism

• clip

Inductive Reasoning andScientific Method

Medicine

• Galen 2nd Century physician– Relied on animal rather than human dissection

• Vesalius 16th Century physician– Dissected human cadavers for better

understanding of human anatomy

• Harvey– Proved heart center of circulation system– Proved arteries and veins pump same type of

blood

Chemistry

• Van Leeuwenhoek- – improved the 1st microscope

• Boyle’s Law – – volume of gas varies with amount of pressure

put on it– Defined an element

• Lavoisier – – system of naming chemical elements

Sir Francis Bacon

• English thinker

• Scientific method – – systematic procedure for collecting and

analyzing evidence

• Inductive method/empiricism – – small to large, observe, experiment, test

hypothesis

• Using your text and readings, explain in at least 2-3 sentences how the role of the church changed as new discoveries were made and new technologies were utilized (use book if needed).

Give

at least

2 examples.

Remember from EXPLORATION?

Earn 5 points on the Unit 5 TEST

Over SPRING BREAK, complete a Scientific experiment using the Scientific Method.

-see following slide for details and requirements

- due FIRST DAY back from Spring Break

- extra credit can’t be turned in late (unless absent)

-My favorite experiment was how to fit an unbroken egg into a glass bottle

- some students experimented on the scientific properties on which soda makes the most fizz when a mentos is added, etc.

Extra Credit: An experiment !!!!!!!!• Use the steps of the Scientific Method• Choose an experiment to do at home

– Should be: Controlled, relatively simple, safe, and ethical !!!!!!!!!!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~LENGTH: Should be at least 1 page written and 1 page for visual

1. Choose experiment, document your question, and form a hypothesis.

2. Document your experiment and results - Walk us through all the steps

3. Don’t falsify data if experiment doesn’t go how you expected. - What happened? What did you learn to do next time?

4. Create a visual to show the steps of your experiment - Be creative !!!!

- Have a title for your experiment, visuals must be in color, must be NEAT, spelled correctly…..create on computer if your handwriting is illegible.

- This needs to be created by you , based on your experiment.

Scientific Revolution Essay“The Scientific Revolution largely resulted from the work of a

handful of great intellectuals.”

“Changes in European civilization encouraged the development of new ideas that became the basis for the Scientific Revolution.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Based on these two quotes, respond to this question in one page …

-In the Scientific Revolution, did the people make the times, or did the times make the people?

-Be sure to include specific examples (scientists, inventions, movements, etc.)

.

Check

• 1. Explain the helio/geocentric theories.

• 2. Explain why Kepler is significant

• 3. Explain why Galileo is significant.

• 4. Why is Newton significant?
