Science Essential Questions: What is science? Objectives: Describe the characteristics of science.

What is science? Science is an organized body of knowledge about nature For this class, nature consists of everything that is not supernatural Science is the product of observations, common sense, and rational thinking.

What is science? Science is a human endeavor that dates back before recorded history. The rational thought involved in science became popular in Greece during the 3rd and 4th centuries BC. Scientific discoveries are often opposed, especially if they conflict with what people want to believe.

What is science? Science is verifiable and self-correcting. Scientific claims are tested against observations of the natural world and the ones that fail the test are rejected Scientific claims are subject to peer review and replication. Albert Einstein said: “Many experiments can show that I’m right but it takes only one (that can be repeated) to show that I am wrong.”

What is not science? Science uses mathematical equations to help show relationships; however, science and mathematics are not the same thing. Nearly all forms of technology are applications of science, but science and technology are not the same thing. Studies dealing with supernatural subjects are not scientific
