    • Module Objective: Students will differentiate the world outlooks of the medieval and scientific revolution periods in Western Europe.
    • Lesson Time Limit: 30 minutes
    • Learning Component: Tasks and Target
    • Target Goal: By the end of the module, students will be able to differentiate the world outlooks of the medieval period from the scientific revolution in Western Europe.

    3-Pics-1-Word Hook Activity

    • Purpose: This activity is a pre-lesson hook to engage student interest and activate prior knowledge.
    • Activity Description: Students match image sets to a single word. This activity is designed to connect the period being studied with the images.

    Scientific Revolution

    • Medieval Period Beliefs: Nature and societal issues were explained and addressed through religious dogma and tradition in the Middle Ages.
    • Scientific Revolution: These previously accepted beliefs were challenged by scientific discoveries and philosophical thinkers.
    • Thinkers and Ideas:
      • Nicholas Copernicus: Challenged the geocentric model of the universe, proposing a heliocentric model, where the Earth and other planets revolve around the sun.
      • Galileo Galilei: Emphasized experimentation and observation. Used telescopes to observe and confirm that planets orbit the sun and observed planetary features.
      • Johannes Kepler: Discovered the elliptical orbits of planets, forming the Three Laws of Planetary Motion.
      • Tycho Brahe: Accurately plotted positions of fixed stars, leading to more precise calculations of planetary movements.
      • Sir Isaac Newton: Formulated the Three Laws of Motion and the Law of Universal Gravitation. These laws explained planetary motion and other aspects of the physical world.
    • Scholar Reactions to New Ideas: The religious views of the medieval period, particularly of the Church, were challenged by the scientific developments. Many scholars resisted and opposed this shift in worldview and rejected new scientific ideas that contradicted their beliefs. This often had serious implications.
    • Impact of Scientific Revolution: The scientific revolution fostered scientific communities, changed how scientific knowledge was disseminated, and spurred development of modern scientific methodology. It also led to more interest in understanding the physical world better.
