INTELLECTUAL REVOLUTION GE7- SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY & SOCIETY PREPARED BY : JULAI L. SANTOS Paradigm Shift 2 COPERNICAN REVOLUTION Copernican revolution is the shift from geocentric to heliocentric understanding of the universe (Spencer, J. B., 2020). This paradigm shift took place as a result of the availability of sufficient data that came from actual observations and mathematics. 3 PRESENTATION TITLE 4 Source: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/positive-psychology-copernican-revolution-rashid-kapadia DARWINIAN REVOLUTION Darwin rejected the idea of Lamarck that “acquired characteristics are inheritable”. During the British expedition in 1831, he made observations on the diversity of organisms, fossils, comparison between Galapagos and South American organisms, comparison among the organisms in the Galapagos Islands, and adaptation which laid the foundation of 5 the theory of evolution by natural selection. DARWINIAN REVOLUTION Darwin rejected the idea of Lamarck that “acquired characteristics are inheritable”.

Different-sized Beak in Galapagos Finches: Charles Darwin observed that in the Galapagos Islands, the different species of finches developed distinct beak shapes based on the types of food available on their respective islands. Finches with long, slender beaks are better adapted to feeding on insects, while those with short, stout beaks are better suited for cracking seeds. 7 FREUDIAN REVOLUTION The Freudian revolution introduced the idea that unconscious forces drive human behavior. It transformed our understanding of the mind and influenced fields like psychology, literature, and art. It also sparked debates about sexuality, childhood, and therapy, profoundly reshaping societal views.
