Coming up on the End

My Scientific Revolution project for HIS 295 with Charles Evans is coming to an end. I've got a couple of weeks (week and a half really) to work on it. So I'm not going to spend a lot of time here explaining what I hope it looks like at the end, but I did want to record a little bit of the process. Everything in italics is part of the wish list for the project, given time.

Introduction:
  • what is the scientific revolution
  • how does it fit with western civilization
  • part of what project, HIS 295
  • bibliography
The Timeline:
  • links with mini-bios, videos, and wikipedia
  • tried to create as big a space a possible to view it
  • link to the time slider web site and my timeline in particular
Mini-Bios:
  • three hundred to five hundred words on the importance of this person on changing ideology of the Sci Rev, Western Civilization, and modern philosophy
  • links to articles, websites, videos, and podcasts
  • an image
  • hope to include some primary source link
News and Iterations
  • includes format and ideas about the project
  • includes new links and up dates about HOS
  • book reviews and recommendations
Assignment
  • three optional assignments for this unit
  • digital (word cloud? timeline of the individual?);
  • research (3 page mini-research on importance of one individual);
  • exam (they write a 30 question multiple choice test)
