7. n Scientific n Scientific Revolution—a movement in the 1600s in which new technology and innovative approaches to seeking knowledge led to a breakthrough in European thought. (Everything was questioned; nothing was assumed)

8. Logic n During the Scientific Revolution, logic (reasoning) were utilize as tools to find truth; Logic—using the mind and science to determine answers n How did people come up with answers before Scientific Revolution? –Magical Thought (witch did it) –Religious Thought (god did it) –Scientific Thought (using logic)

9. Deductive Reasoning n Observing something general & using logic to prove a hypothesis (unproven question) n Use Scientific Method to prove hypothesis –Premise: All dogs have four legs –Premise: Rover is a dog –Conclusion: Rover has four legs

10. Scientific Method n Theory—Observation of something in nature n Form Hypothesis—come up with a question about observation n Experimentation—conduct tests to determine answers to hypothesis n Confirmation—analyze & interpret data to see if hypothesis is true

11. Inductive Reason n Observing something specific & using logic to make a general statement –Observation: John came to class late this morning –Observation: John’s hair was uncombed –Prior experience: John is very fussy about his hair –Conclusion: John overslept

12. Reasons for Scientific Revolution n Renaissance—emphasis on order, perfection, its OK to question traditional beliefs, humans can accomplish anything n Reformation—Catholic Church did not always support scientific thought; new religions weakened Church authority n Overseas Exploration—caused scientific research on new plants & animals brought back
