Copernican Revolution?
Nicolaus Copernicus (1514) discovered the Earth is not the center of the universe forever changing how humanity understands our place and providing fertile ground for blossoming science with Galileo Galilei. Immanuel Kant coined "Copernican Revolution" reimagining Philosophy so we step back and ask ourselves how we know what we know. Jean Piaget described children's qualitative stage shifts as their personal Copernican Revolutions. And Thomas Kuhn modeled paradigm shifts of scientific progress as analogous to Piaget's model of children's development. I feel Copernican Revolutions are education at its best. We're not learning isolated facts; we struggle and develop ourselves in profoundly new ways.
