SynopsisThe history of science is often seen as a story of advancement but nothing could be further from the truth. Science, it is true, has progressed, but rarely in the direction intended and seldom for the reasons given. This has a lot to do with the people responsible. Meet Thales, credited as the father of science ", whose only real claim to fame is that he often fell into ditches, discover how Archimedes never said Eureka and hated baths anyway and how the most lucrative ancient Greek invention was not democracy but the slot machine. Justin Pollard also fills us in on Issac Newton who liked to disguise himself and lurk in London's less salubrious pubs, how eleven people claimed to have invented the steam engine and why the first website was twelve foot across and made of wood., The IMPACT Mathematics, Student Guideincludes 10 units per grade level where students investigate, apply, and reflect within a real-world context. Contains blackline masters of the student workbook that are followed by field-tested performance-based assessments developed by MARS (Mathematics Assessment Resource Service) under an NSF grant."
