Be able to identify important monarchs and scientists
Be able to compare and contrast absolute and constitutional monarchs
Be able to summarize the Scientific Revolution and its lasting effects

3. 5.2: Constitutional vs. Absolute monarchies
An absolute monarchy is one where the monarch has supreme or absolute power over their country.
A divine right is a right given to them by God to rule. They also argued that this divine right made it so they only had to answer to the authority of God.
Strong monarchs could gain new territory, strengthen armies and improve economy
As time went on citizens wanted church and rulers to have less power so this resulted in constitutional monarchs
A constitutional monarchy is sometimes called a democratic monarchy. The monarch is not the head of state when it comes to government power.

11. 5.4 Activity Directions
Imagine that you are preparing a time capsule of items representing scientific achievements from the 20th century. The people who dig up your time capsule will be unfamiliar with the importance of these innovations because they are living in a world made possible by innovations developed well after you. Your job is to prepare an explanation of 20th century science and innovation for the time capsule.
Step 1: Choose five advances in 20th century science that you think are the most important.
Ex. Computer, Hair Dryer
Step 2: Select pictures of objects that are symbolic of the advancements that you selected.
Step 3: Rank them in order from most important to least important. Justify why you placed them in the order that you have chosen in three to four sentences.

Step 4: Create a digital time capsule. Create a digital time capsule explaining why your chosen advances were the most important. Be sure to explain who was responsible for these advances and how they affected 20th century life. To learn more about Web 2.0 tools and to help locate a tool, visit the Web 2.0 tools area.
Your time capsule must:
have one slide for each example that includes a two to three sentence explanation of why the advance was important
have one image for each of the five example slides that represents the advancement of its impact
have one final slide that includes a one paragraph justification of the order in which you placed your images
