Paradigm Shift Flashcards
typical example or pattern
paradigm
distinct set of concepts or thought patterns
paradigm
fundamental change in approach
paradigm shift
paradigm shift is by
thomas kuhn
kuhn’s book
the structure of scientific revolutions 1962
more significant changes with belief systems
paradigm shift
sometimes considered important and sometimes given great attention within education
paradigm shift
thomas samuel kuhn’s birthdate and death date
07/18/1922 - 06/17/1966
american physicist, historia, and philosopher of science
thomas samuel kuhn
wrote the structure of scientific revolutions in 1962
thomas samuel kuhn
book of thomas samuel kuhn
structure of scientific revolutions
history of science
structure of scientific revolutions
simple cycle of progress
kuhn cycle
challenged the world’s current conception of science which was at a steady progression of accumulation of new ideas
kuhn cycle
viewpoint was wrong
kuhn’s paradigm
science advanced most by occasional revolutions of new knowledge triggered by introduction of new ways of thought so large
kuhn’s paradigm
introduction of new ways of thought so large is called
new paradigms
paradigms change in scientific revolutions and is a new way of seeing the world
kuhn’s paradigm
presented a descriptive theory which kuhn try to observe the factual scientific fields to understand how they function
popper and kuhn
steps of kuhn cycle
pre-science
normal science
model drift
model crisis
model revolution
paradigm change
pre-paradigm stage
pre-science
not yet a model of understanding to solve main problems
pre-science
no workable paradigm
pre-science
theorizing, observing, and experimenting
normal science
has a scientifically based model of understanding that works
normal science
model of understanding starts to drift coz of anomalies and phenomena
model drift
model cannot explain
model drift
most important step
model crisis
model drift becomes so excessive
model crisis
model is broken
model crisis
no longer serve as reliable guide
model crisis
field in anguish
model crisis
serious candidates for new model emerge
model revolution
new model is so different from old one
model revolution
undergoing revolutionary change
model revolution
paradigm shift
paradigm change
new paradigm are taught to others
paradigm change
new paradigm becomes generally accepted guide to one’s work
paradigm change
field is now back to normal science step
paradigm change
broke the monopoly of Catholic church and Christian’s relationship with God
the reformation
darwin’s theory of revolution
natural sciences
create a physical model of earth’s structure
plate tectonics
subjective to observer’s state of motion relative to other objects
albert einstein’s space-time is not fixed or objective
who said that we are not fully in control of our behavior
sigmund freud
government intervention in the economy is now accepted
economics
purpose of art is to copy reality
realist paradigm
can fully explain something by breaking it down into simple prts
reductionism
belief that complex phenomena can be fully explained by analyzing their simplest components
reductionism
more than just the sum of its parts
complexity of living systems
living organisms exhibit emerging properties that cannot be fully explained by their individual parts
complexity of living systems
limitations of reductionism
complexity of living systems
consciousness
free will
science struggles to explain human consciousness
consciousness
human actions are not entirely determined by physical laws
free will
we are not controlled solely by physical laws
free will
proposed that humans are made up of both matter and form
st. thomas aquinas
hylomorphic view
matter form
allows a more comprehensive understanding of human nature
hylomorphic view
this view helps explain things that reductionism can’t
aquina’s perspective
reduction of nature to fundamental physics
reductionism
all living things are made up of cells and how they function
biology
make more detailed predictions once we understand atomic structures involved in chemical reactions
chemistry
find more fundamental constituents of physical world, discovering atom, electrons, and neutrons
physics
fundamental change in the basic concepts and experimental practices
paradig shift
set of practices, theories, and standards that define scientific discipline
paradigm
involves scientists working within the established paradigm without questioning the foundational assumptions
normal science
observations or experimental results emerge that cannot be explained by current paradigm
anomalies
how scientists approach problems, conduct experiments, and interpret data
paradigm
data or observations that don’t fit the current theories
anomalies
problems that current paradigm cannot resolve
anomalies
accumulation of unresolved anomalies
crisis
challenge the existing paradigm
crisis
when old paradigm begins to break down coz it can’t fully account for new findings
crisis
rules and assumptions no longer seem adequate to explain the world
crisis
when a new framework is adopted resolving the anomalies
scientific revolution
fundamental change in basic concepts of the field
paradigm shift
new paradigm becomes the new norm and cycle of normal science begins a new
aftermath
how we understand the world in scientific terms
paradigm shift
major transformation in knowledge that reshapes the field
paradigm shift
meaning of geometric model
earth at the center
meaning of heliocentric model
sun at the center
classic paradigm shift in astronomy
geometric and heliocentric model
