Goals for these notes Describe the steps that a scientists would use to figure out problems in our environment.

How Science Works In order to satisfy our curiosity about why things are the way they are and about how things happen the way they do, we must.. Making Observations: using our senses and tools What are some tools a scientist may use?

Observations Make some observations from this photo

Make some observations

Observation

Observation

Hypothesis and Predicting Is a testable idea that can be lead to further investigation. Can you give an example?

What can you tell from this data?

Hypothesis

Hypothesis

Hypothesis Cholera is caused by people drinking contaminated water. Which pump appears to be causing the 1854 London Cholera outbreak? Spot Map See patterns in data How could you test this hypothesis?

Collecting Data To study the hypothesis data must be collected and analyze. Conclusions must be drawn Results must be repeatable Results should be communicated

Collecting Data

Collecting Data

Drawing Conclusions

Repeating Experiments

Communicating Results

What does this model show us about how mercury gets to humans?

Habits of a Scientist Curiosity Skepticism Openness to New Ideas Intellectual Honesty Imagination and Creativity

What is going on here? 1999 Earthquakes in yellow

How can we use the scientific method to study our impacts on the environment?
