Mr. Bergh will give you a 4 Worlds sheet.
You will need this paper before starting the new chapter.
Title it "The Scientific Revolution and The Enlightenment".
Write your name and period as well. Date optional.
If you run out of space ask for another 4 Worlds Sheet.
Rubric (How you will be graded for the 4 Worlds.)
4 - I filled all 4 boxes with relevant notes, drawings, vocabulary, big ideas, and connected them together.
3 - I filled the equivalent of 3 boxes.
2 - I filled the equivalent of 2 boxes.
1 - I filled the equivalent of a box.
0 - I did not fill any boxes.

This lesson's grade mostly comes from notes. You must read and take notes.
Doesn't have to be 4 Worlds, but it does have to be on a paper.

You can blame Rene Descartes for two things. What are they?

Francis Bacon codified the Scientific Method.
The steps remain largely the same today.
On the front of your 4 Worlds Sheet draw out the Steps of the Scientific Method as seen to the left.
This will be on the test...
Eventually it'll be on a test in Science class too!

Flip your 4 Worlds Sheet to the back. Turn the back of your paper into a number line.
Then copy the timeline below onto your number line.

Enlightenment thinkers were the first Social Scientists.
They apply the Scientific Method to a social problems. 
Economics, the study of money.
Politics, the study and practice of governments.
Psychology, the study of how people think and act.
Sociology, the study of human society.
History, the study of past events by humans.
Law, the study of systems of laws.
and Linguistics, the study of language.
These are all examples of Social Sciences that came to exist because of the work of Enlightenment thinkers.

Do you want to be a Social Scientist? If so type which type you'd like to be and why. If no, still explain why.

What the the three natural rights every person is born with? (According to Western Enlightenment Thinking...)

Required

1

We all have natural rights.
What rights do you believe you have?
Type as many as you can think of.

The English Bill of Rights was the first every written document to outline the rights of the citizen. It authorized free elections, freedom of speech, the right to petition (complain to the government), and protected people from cruel and unusual punishments.
Of the rights mentioned above, which is the most important to you? Why?

Below is an image I made to help you understand the birth of Science as it's own subject.
Scientific acts have been occurring for as long as man has invented things but historically people didn't see doing these things as Science, they saw it as philosophy. 
The Greeks were especially famous for this.
Saint Thomas Aquinas opened the doors for science to exist in Europe. He was a Catholic priest who said you could be a Christian and also learn about the world using sources other then or in addition to the Bible. Then comes all the scientists we've learned about in class who one by one start to support theories using tested evidence.
Science can be said to officially exist as an educational subject after Sir Francis Bacon in England and Rene Descartes in France both publish the Scientific Method that all scientists use today.

You really like Science and what to get extra credit in Mr. Bergh's History class?
Watch the video below as a step on your +100 hours of learning outside of school.
In this video Sir Isaac Newton's theory of gravity is proved incorrect. Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity is actually more compelling a theory of why stuff falls down.
To receive extra credit write to Mr. Bergh or speak to Mr. Bergh in person a full explanation of 
(1) what Sir Isaac Newton's Theory of Gravity is, 
(2) what Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity is, 
(1) what Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity is, 
(4) how it works, and 
(5) how Einstein's theory is more accurate then Newton's theory.
