Question:
You will create an entry in a timeline illustrating the development of the philosophy of science. At the end of the term, you will have a timeline containing four entries keyed to important philosophers and their contributions to the field.
We will be using Dipity.com to create these timelines. For information about how to create a Dipity account and set the privacy to public, otherwise your instructor cannot see it; please see the Dipity Guide under Resources.
To complete this assignment, provide a link to your Dipity timeline in the response area.
Each entry should contain the following elements:
A title indicating the name of the scientist/philosopher who is being examined and his/her approximate birth/death dates.
An accurate date for the key event/moment in the philosopher''s work on which the entry focuses.
A summary of the philosopher''s contribution to the philosophy of science in 200-300 words. Note: Many individuals have contributed to a variety of fields; your entry should focus on his/her contribution to the material covered in this course.
Dates and MLA citations for his or her major works.
At least one video, sound file, or image that illustrates the concepts for which the philosopher is best known. Note: While a portrait of the philosopher is a nice bonus, it does NOT fulfill this requirement.
Each week, a list of names from which you can choose your entries is provided.
For Timeline Entry 3, select one of the following:
Paul Feyerabend
Thomas Kuhn
