Before class, students will be asked to read two World History Encyclopedia articles. Introduction (10-15 minutes) Hook: Start with a thought-provoking question: “How would you determine whether something is true or not? What process would you use?” Write students’ responses on the board to highlight different approaches, such as personal experience, advice from others, intuition, or logical reasoning. Explain that before the Scientific Revolution, people often relied on methods like tradition, philosophical reasoning, or religious teachings to determine the truth. Introduce the idea that the Scientific Method emerged as a new approach to discovering truth, emphasizing that this method is based on observation, experimentation, and evidence rather than solely on abstract reasoning or accepted beliefs. Hands-On Activity (25-30 minutes) Present the following scenario to the class: “A farmer notices that some crops in his field are growing poorly while others are thriving. He wants to understand why this is happening.” Divide the class into an even number of small groups. Half of the groups will receive Handout 1: Philosophical Approach and the other half will receive Handout 2: Scientific Method Approach. Instruct each group to brainstorm solutions to the farmer’s problem based on their assigned approach. Philosophical Approach: Groups might suggest reasons based on general principles, such as the alignment of the stars, the will of the gods, or moral interpretations of natural events. Scientific Method Approach: Groups should focus on making specific observations, forming testable hypotheses, designing experiments, and collecting data. Pair each Philosophical Approach group with a Scientific Method Approach group. Have the paired groups present their ideas to each other. Encourage them to discuss and debate the differences between the philosophical reasoning and the scientific method. Class Discussion and Reflection (15-20 minutes) Reflect on the activity, highlighting the strengths and limitations of each approach and the importance of the Scientific Method in advancing knowledge and solving problems. Summarize key takeaways from the lesson, emphasizing how the Scientific Method has led to a more systematic and evidence-based approach to knowledge. Reflect on how the Scientific Method has shaped modern knowledge and technology and ask students how they might use the Scientific Method in their own lives or future careers. Homework/Extension Students will pick one scientist from the collection of 12 Great Scientists of the Scientific Revolution, read their biography, and answer questions on the worksheet (see below). If needed, further research can be done to complete the worksheet.
