Geography (and history) of the atom
What we know about science is because humans have been tinkering with it for centuries. Nobody gave humans a guide to life. Our textbooks exist based on knowledge gathered by humans going through the scientific process. This assignment is two-fold. You will pick one of the philosophers or one of the scientists and create an info sheet about that person, the time they did their research, and/or show how what they did led to future understandings. The second part involves making a geographic timeline with Google Earth.
Scientific philosophers (pick one)
These are the folks who spent time thinking about science. What is it? How do we study it? They may have also created laws, but for the most part, what they created is theory. None of the philosophers you will be studying are contemporary because there are lots of brilliant minds we can read about in history. These are the people I want us to focus on because without them, we would not have our science textbooks. We may not see their names in our textbook, but their ideas are there. You are to read the document in the link given, figure out what the philosopher was saying, and how his/her information led to modern ideas. You are NOT to use Wikipedia or your textbook because this is an exercise in reading primary sources. I will provide a copy of the articles to students that only have citations here, because I was able to download it. This list is not exhaustive. If you find someone you think should be on the list, ask me about it.

Bacon: Francis Bacon was a prolific philosopher who had ideas for just about everything. I don’t know where to tell you to focus, unless you can find his writing on evidence, inductive reasoning, and/or the scientific method. If I find it, I will put the link here. What is here now are links to some of his writing so you can get an idea of his thoughts.

There is a Google book online: Discourse on the Method that has a lot of information about various philosophers.

Some Standards
Common Core:
Reading: RST.11-12.1
NGSS (Next Generation Science Standards):
PS1.A: Structure and Properties of Matter
Reading: RST.11-12.1
- Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of science and technical texts, attending to important distinctions the author makes and to any gaps or inconsistencies in the account. (HS-PS1-3), (HS-PS2-6)
- Write informative/explanatory texts, including the narration of historical events, scientific procedures/ experiments, or technical processes. (HS-PS2-6)
- WHST.9-12.7 Conduct short as well as more sustained research projects to answer a question (including a self-generated question) or solve a problem; narrow or broaden the inquiry when appropriate; synthesize multiple sources on the subject, demonstrating understanding of the subject under investigation. (HS-PS1-6)
- WHST.11-12.8 Gather relevant information from multipleauthoritative print and digital sources, using advanced searches effectively; assess the strengths and limitations of each source in terms of the specific task, purpose, and audience; integrate information into the text selectively to maintain the flow of ideas, avoiding plagiarism and overreliance on any one source and following a standard format for citation. (HS-PS1-3)
- WHST.9-12.9 Draw evidence from informational texts to support analysis, reflection, and research. (HS-PS1-3)
