What is the connection between the Scientific Revolution and the Enlightenment?

The Scientific Revolution introduced methods of logical reasoning and observation, which inspired the Enlightenment thinkers to apply similar principles to government and society, leading to major political and social reforms.

How can I teach students the difference between old and new ways of thinking during the Enlightenment?

Use a T-Chart activity where students list examples of Old Thinking versus New Thinking in science and government. This visual comparison helps clarify the shift from traditional beliefs to reason-based approaches.

What are some examples of old scientific approaches that changed during the Scientific Revolution?

Examples include moving from the geocentric model to the heliocentric model of the solar system, replacing superstition with the scientific method, and shifting from reliance on ancient texts to evidence-based discovery.

Why was it easier to apply reason to scientific problems than to political or social issues during the Enlightenment?

Applying reason to science relied on observable facts and experiments, while political and social change faced resistance from tradition, power structures, and deeply held beliefs, making reforms slower and more challenging.

What is a simple classroom activity to help students understand Enlightenment thinking?

Have students create a T-Chart storyboard comparing old and new ideas in science and government, illustrating each example. This hands-on activity reinforces the impact of logical reasoning during the Enlightenment.
