All of which worked and studied in at least one field of science and had a major scientific impact on society. Francis Bacon was an English philosopher and scientist who is known as the scientist of the Scientific Method. Nicholas Copernicus was an astronomer who formulated a model of the universe in which the sun was the center; this caused an uproar in society as it tested to accepted idea that the Earth was the center of the universe. Johannes Kepler is best known for his laws of planetary motion but he also helped make an improved version of the refracting telescope.]]> 2018-01-03 18:00:13 UTC https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/218586732 ghayes6411 https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/218586798 People began to question traditional education and started to explore the world and nature for themselves. Scholars started exposing themselves to new ideas and discovered that just because an idea has been accepted by everyone, does not mean that is correct or scientifically accurate. Throughout the Scientific Revolution, several new discoveries were made about physics, astronomy, and nature. There were also many new inventions were created to help make new discoveries to further education and science. ]]> 2018-01-03 18:00:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/218586798 ghayes6411 https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/218586937 Even though the Industrial revolution began in Europe, it eventually migrated towards the Americas and sent The United States into an Industrial Revolution of its own. ]]> 2018-01-03 18:00:56 UTC https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/218586937 ghayes6411 https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/218586995 The Industrial Revolution began in England in he 1760s and later made its way over to The United States.

However, as European philosophers and writers were spreading their work across the world, America was also reading their work. American ideas of liberty and independence began to come to light. Religious leaders of different denominations or faiths began to work together, and educators across the country were communicating and developing ideas with each other. Several American enlightened minds began to create their own work and theories and share it across the globe. ]]> 2018-01-03 18:01:47 UTC https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/218587197 ghayes6411 https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/218587267 The Enlightenment was a period of time where people were questioning the world around them and started to develop their own philosophical and intellectual ideas. This period of time began after the Thirty Years' War during the 18th Century in Europe. ]]> 2018-01-03 18:02:00 UTC https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/218587267 ghayes6411 https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/218587362 Important leaders during the Enlightenment Period include a vast range of people with various occupations. Some leaders include, John Comenius, Benjamin Franklin, and Rene Descartes. John Comenius was a philosopher who first introduced textbooks that were filled with logical thinking, science, and math, as opposed to religious education which was more standard at he time. Benjamin Franklin was a scientist, author, inventor, and political theorist among many other things. He is well known for his several theories on electricity; he is also famous for his many inventions including the lightening rod, bifocals, and the Franklin Stove.  Rene Descartes was a French philosopher and mathematician. He wrote Meditations on First Philosophy, which is still often used in Philosophy classes and courses as a required teaching principle. He also is the father of analytical geometry, and found a way to connect algebra and geometry together. ]]> 2018-01-03 18:02:23 UTC https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/218587362 ghayes6411 https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/218587414 The main cause for the Enlightenment period was the Thirty Years' Wars. After the war, German writers, such as Hugo Grotlus, started writing about new ideas to fix war and hate and sharing their writing all over Europe. European thinkers also developed an increased interest in the world outside of their countries. This led to the exploration of other cultures, civilizations, and societies around the world. Which in turn developed into more scientific discoveries, primarily earth science and astronomy. After the French Revolution, the Enlightenment period ended due to competing ideas throughout philosophers and politicians. In fact, many people blame the French Revolution on the Enlightenment period because so many people disagreed with one another. It is safe to say that the enlightenment ultimately caused the violence and mass destruction across France in the 18th century.]]> 2018-01-03 18:02:32 UTC https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/218587414 ghayes6411 https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/219193534 2018-01-07 20:49:05 UTC https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/219193534 ghayes6411 https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/219195465 2018-01-07 21:09:07 UTC https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/219195465 ghayes6411 https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/219195609 2018-01-07 21:11:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/219195609 ghayes6411 https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/219195776 2018-01-07 21:13:25 UTC https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/219195776 ghayes6411 https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/219195910 2018-01-07 21:15:00 UTC https://padlet.com/ghayes6411/wl97lywjo2fy/wish/219195910
