Learning Outcome 2

Recognize the provisional nature of knowledge, the disciplinary preference for complexity, and the comfort with ambiguity that familiarity with history requires. 

For learning outcome two, I chose to focus on my paper on the Scientific Revolution as it shows that history can be difficult and complex, we must understand that it was a different time and that things were not black and white. In particular, the divide between science and religion during this time

Science and religion have always had a rocky relationship and there was no greater time than during the Scientific Revolution. Science was beginning to boom and people were starting to question God. This was during the time where religion was now becoming a more private matter rather than a “thing” everyone did.
