1. Monday – October 1, 2012 Mr. Lombardi Do Now: Why might people have difficulty accepting new ideas or ways of thinking? Aim: How did the Scientific Revolution change man’s view of himself and his universe?

2. The Scientific Revolution: – Read the handout; highlight all important parts. – Answer the questions in full sentences. – DO NOT COPY ANOTHER STUDENT’S WORK! – Due: Tomorrow, October 2 H.W. #2

4. A New Way of Thinking Scientific Revolution: A new way of thinking about the natural world. 1500s- scholars challenged the ideas of ancient thinkers and the church. New discoveries during the Age of Exploration lead scholars to believe there were new truths to be found.

5. The Medieval View Geocentric Theory: the earth was located at the center of the universe Christianity- God placed earth at the center of the universe Geocentric Theory 

6. The Heliocentric Theory The idea that the earth and the other planets revolve around the sun Nicolaus Copernicus - Discovered that the sun is the center of the universe

7. Copernicus Copernicus knew his theory would be rejected because it contradicted religious views – He did not publish his discovery until 1543 (the year he died) because he was afraid of persecution

8. Galileo Galilei 1609- Galileo builds a telescope in order to study the heavens Galileo’s discoveries supported Copernicus’ theory

9. Galileo’s Conflict with the Church If people believed Galileo- they would question church teachings 1616- the Catholic Church warns Galileo not to defend Copernicus’ ideas 1632- Galileo publishes his 2 nd book in support of Copernicus – The Pope summoned Galileo to stand trial in Rome Galileo

11. Galileo’s Conflict with the Church (Cont.) 1633- Galileo stands before the papal court – The Pope threatened torture Galileo read a signed confession- he agreed that the ideas of Copernicus were false Galileo was under house arrest until 1642 when he died *1992- Catholic Church officially acknowledged that Galileo had been right

12. Isaac Newton Came up with the theory of motion All objects are affected equally by the same forces – He linked motion on earth with motion in the universe (the law of gravity)

13. Scientific Method 1.Question or problem 2.Hypothesis- unproved assumption 3.Test Hypothesis 4.Analyze data- reach a conclusion 5.Conclusion confirms or disproves hypothesis

14. Old Science v. New Science

15. Inventions 1590- First microscope was invented 1643- First barometer invented (tool to help predict the weather) 1714- Grabriel Fahrenheit made the first mercury filled glass thermometer 1742- Anders Celsius created another scale for the mercury thermometer

16. Summary 1.How did the Scientific Revolution change man’s view of himself and his universe? 2.How would these technological changes affect people, places, and regions?

18. Critical Thinking Questions: 1.How was the Scientific Revolution a turning point in history? 2.What assumptions can you make about the power of the church back then and the power of the church today? How did the level of power change? 3.How did the new approaches of observation and experimentation challenge the Roman Catholic Church? What was life like before this time period? 4.How would you have handled being summoned by the Pope if you were Galileo? 5.How would these various inventions/technological changes affect people, places, and regions?
