Nov 11th-18th Question 3


One aspect of this chapter that I vound very interesting was the idea of the Scientific Method. Though the scientific method is not something new to me it is one of the easiest to explain. The boss text best described the scientific method as “ Involving the identification of a problem and the rigorous, systematic of observation and experimentation in testing an explanation for the problem.” The scientific method in the book is explained to be along the same lines as the three levels of thinking. Experience, interpretation, and analysis. The scientific method also has 5 methods in which it follows which are: Identifying the problem, develop and initial hypotheses, gather additional information and refine the hypotheses, test the hypothesis, and evaluate the hypothesis on the basis of testing or experimental results.  These methods are basically used to conduct experiments and be able to use a method everytime to make sure you are conducting an experiment correctly.
