  • Title: the Distribution of an Illustrated Timeline Wall Chart and Teacher's Guide of 20Fh Century Physics
    REPORT NSF GRANT #PHY-98143318 Title: The Distribution of an Illustrated Timeline Wall Chart and Teacher’s Guide of 20fhCentury Physics DOE Patent Clearance Granted December 26,2000 Principal Investigator, Brian Schwartz, The American Physical Society 1 Physics Ellipse College Park, MD 20740 301-209-3223 [email protected] BACKGROUND The American Physi a1 Society s part of its centennial celebration in March of 1999 decided to develop a timeline wall chart on the history of 20thcentury physics. This resulted in eleven consecutive posters, which when mounted side by side, create a %foot mural. The timeline exhibits and describes the millstones of physics in images and words. The timeline functions as a chronology, a work of art, a permanent open textbook, and a gigantic photo album covering a hundred years in the life of the community of physicists and the existence of the American Physical Society . Each of the eleven posters begins with a brief essay that places a major scientific achievement of the decade in its historical context. Large portraits of the essays’ subjects include youthful photographs of Marie Curie, Albert Einstein, and Richard Feynman among others, to help put a face on science. Below the essays, a total of over 130 individual discoveries and inventions, explained in dated text boxes with accompanying images, form the backbone of the timeline. For ease of comprehension, this wealth of material is organized into five color- coded story lines the stretch horizontally across the hundred years of the 20th century. The five story lines are: Cosmic Scale, relate the story of astrophysics and cosmology; Human Scale, refers to the physics of the more familiar distances from the global to the microscopic; Atomic Scale, focuses on the submicroscopic This report was prepared as an account of work sponsored by an agency of the United States Government.

  • The Chronological Period Is a Temporal Unito There Is a Wealth of Material on Late Pre-Columbian Middle America Available Sin the Chronicles and Codices
    THE POSTCLASSIC STAGE IN MESOAMERICA Jane Holden INTRODUCTION The subject of inquiry in this paper is the PostcLassic stage in Middle America. As used by prehistorians, the term "Postclassic" has referred to either a developmental stage or to a chronological period. These two con- cepts are quite different, both operationally and theoretically. The stage concept in contemporary usage is a classificatory device for st,udying cul- ture units in terms of developmental and theoretical problems. For com- parative purposes, a stage is usually defined in broad and diffuse terms, in order to outline a culture type. A developmental stage is not tempor- c3lyl detined although it is necessarily a function of relative time. The chronological period on the other hand is defined through the temporal alignment of culture units and establishes the historical contemporaneity of those units. Thus the developmental stage is a typological device and the chronological period is a temporal unito There is a wealth of material on late pre-Columbian Middle America available sin the chronicles and codices. However, the study of such mater- ials. is a ppecialty in itself, hence only a minimum of historical informa- tion *ill be presented in this paper and this will be of necessity, based on secondary sources. The following procedure will be employed in this paper. First, brief summaries of formal statements by various authors on the developmental stage concept will be presented, as well as some temporal classifications of the Postclassic. Secondly, the available archaeological evidence will be summarized to provide a temporal framework. And finally, consideration will be given to the implications derived from the comparison of the Post- classic as a temporal category and as a developmental stage.
