What is Science?

Define “Science” in your own words.

A Body of Knowledge Facts Definitions Concepts Theories Laws

A set of methods/processes Observing Measuring Inferring Predicting Classifying Hypothesizing Experimenting Analyzing

A way of knowing Scientific knowledge is based upon evidence. Scientific knowledge can change over time. Creativity plays an important role in science.

What is Engineering?

Engineering design is a process with steps that include identifying criteria and constraints, making models or drawings, testing and evaluating, and improving the design that results in a new product or system that solves a problem.

What do engineers do? Engineers create, develop and manufacture machines, structures, processes and systems that impact society and may make humans more productive. http://worldsciencefestival.com/videos/cool_job_nate_ball

Engineering design is the process of devising products, processes and systems that address a need, capitalize on an opportunity, or solve a specific problem.

What is Technology?

Technology is the use of science and engineering to solve practical problems and create things that improve life, society and the environment.

The Newest Technology of 2013 http://www. youtube. com/watch Write down your favorite example of new technology and one reason why it might improve our lives or world. Example: I really liked the flying car because it would allow my parents to get me to school without having to wait in traffic!

Engineering and technology are SCIENCE!!!
