SCIENTIFIC METHOD POR: Marie AndreeMerida 7D
Whatisit? • The scientific method is a body of techniques for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating previous knowledge. To be termed scientific, a method of inquiry must be based on empirical and measurable evidence.
State a problem • A problem, which can be caused for different reasons, and, if solvable, can usually be solved in a number of different ways, is defined in a number of different ways. This is determined by the context in which a said problem or problems is defined. For an experiment the question always needs to be testable.
GatherInformation • Iswhenyouafterdecidingyourproblemyoueanttogatherinformationtoseehowyourhypothesis and experimentwill be tested. Whenyougatherinformationyou can use manyresourceslikeencyclopedias, books, internet etc.
Do a hypothesis • A hypothesis (plural hypotheses) is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon. For a hypothesis to be a scientific hypothesis, the scientific method requires that one can test it. Scientists generally base scientific hypotheses on previous observations that cannot satisfactorily be explained with the available scientific theories.
Performanexperiment • An experiment is an orderly procedure carried out with the goal of verifying, refuting, or establishing the validity of a hypothesis. Experiments provide insight into cause and effect by demonstrating what outcome occurs when a particular factor is manipulated. Experiments vary greatly in their goal and scale, but always rely on repeatable procedure and logical analysis of the results.
Analyze data • Analysis of data is a process of inspecting, cleaning, transforming, and modeling data with the goal of discovering useful information, suggesting conclusions, and supporting decision making. Data analysis has multiple facets and approaches, encompassing diverse techniques under a variety of names, in different business, science, and social science domains.
Conclusion • En lógica, una conclusión es una proposición al final de un argumento, luego de las premisas.Si el argumento es válido, las premisas implican la conclusión. Sin embargo, para que una proposición constituya conclusión no es necesario que el argumento sea válido: lo único relevante es su lugar en el argumento, no su «rol» o función.
