HOW TO STUDY SCIENCE Lesson 1

WHAT IS AND WHAT IS NOT SCIENCE SCIENCE IS… SCIENCE IS NOT… the study of nature and its effects on humans and the environment such as the refraction phenomenon, the melting ice, object falling to the ground and growth in human the study of the natural world. Anything that is beyond natural. Examples: God, ghost, legend, myth, fairytales, etc.

CAREERS OF SCIENCE Doctor – a person who has been trained in and practices medicinal science. Veterinarian – an animal doctor. Pharmacist – a person who dispenses medicinal drugs and advices on their uses. Engineer – a skilled person who designs, builds or maintains engines, buildings, bridges or roads. Architect – a person who designs buildings and advices on their construction. Chemist – a person trained in chemistry.

Some areas of science Biology – the study of life. Physics – the study of matter. Chemistry – the study of the composition and chemical properties of substances. Astronomy – the study of planets and stars in the universe. Geology – the study of rocks, minerals and the structure of the earth. Meteorology – the study of weather and climate. Biochemistry – the study of chemical processes in living organisms.

Variables -Conditions that influence the results of the experiments Controlled Variable – is what will be measured; it's what the investigator thinks will be affected during the experiment. It is also known as the constant variable. Independent Variable – is what varied during the experiment; it is what the investigator thinks will affect the dependent variable. It is also known as the manipulated variable. Dependent Variable – is what will be measured; it's what the investigator thinks will be affected during the experiment. It is also known as the responding variable.
