1. Lesson 1: INTELLECTUAL
REVOLUTIONS THAT DEFINED
SOCIETY

2. SCIENTIFIC REVOLUTION
- Significantly changed how people study science and do
scientific activities.
1.Science as an Idea.
2. Science as an intellectual activity.
3. Science as a body of knowledge.
4. Science as a personal and society activity.

systems.

17. Development of
science In Asia:

18. India
- known for manufacturing iron and in metallurgical
works.

19. - India is also famous in
Medicine. For example,
AYURVEDA, a system of
tradional medicine.
-They discovered some
medicinal properties of plants
that led them to develop
medicine to cure various
illness.

20. -Ancient India is also known for their
Mathematics.
Aryabhatta
- Indian Astronomer & Mathematician
- introduced a number of trigonometric
functions, tables, and techniques, as well as
algorithms of algebra, in his Aryabhatiya.

21. CHINA
- is one of the ancient civilization with
substantial comtributions in many
areas of life like medicine, astronomy,
science, mathematics, artes,
philosophy, and music, among others.
Chinese Civilization
-known for traditional medicines.
-Discovered various medical
properties and uses of different
plantsand animals to cure human
illness. An example the the practice of
th acupuncture.
-Also known to develop many tools.

22. -among the famous
discoveries and inventions
were compass,
papermaking, gunpowder,
and printing tools.
-Also known in seismology.
-Also made significant
records on supernovas,
lunar and solar eclipses,
comet.

23. Middle East Countries
- dominantly occupied by Muslims.
-Muslim scientists placed greater value on science
experiments rather than plain-thought
experiments.
Arabic Numeral System - originally came from
India, but Muslims mathematicians did make
several refinements to the number systems, such as
the introduction of decimal point notation.

24. Muhammad ibn Mal al-khwarizmi

the Book of Healing, and The canon of
Medicine.

25. Development of Science in
Africa:

26. AFRICA - is blessed with natural and mineral resources.
The Ancient Egyptian Civilization has contributed
immensely and made significant advances in the fields of
Astronomy, mathematics, and medicine.
Egypt- known to be a center of alchemy, which is known
as the medieval forerunner of chemistry.
African used 3 types of calendar:
- Lunar
-Solar
-Stellar

27. Metallurgy - was also know in the African regions during the ancient
times.
They invented metal tools used in their homes, in agriculture, and in
Building their magnificent architectures.
Mathematics
-The Lebombo Bone from the mountains between swaziland and south
Africa, which may have been a tool for multiplication, division, and
simple mathematical calculation or a six month lunar calendar
considered to the oldest known mathematical artifacts dated from
35,000 BCE.
