Bellwork: 8/17 What are the steps of the Scientific Method…in order  Put up your phone  Week 8/13-8/17 What are the steps of the Scientific Method…in order  Write a multi-variable research question. Identify the independent & dependent variable. List 3 possible control variables.

Objective Students will be able to define “science” and distinguish between science and pseudoscience

Today: Part III Notes Pseudoscience Reading

Materials Unit Book

Homework Quiz on TUESDAY – Characteristics of Life, Scientific Method & Pseudoscience

Unit I: Intro to Bio

Part III: Pseudoscience

Science Science: process of asking questions and seeking answers about the natural world

Science Also defined by 5 characteristics Testable Observable Repeatable Natural Phenomena Tentative

What Science Isn’t: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaDvroATyjw Pseudoscience: Anything that is not proven empirically Empirically: by means of observation and experimentation

How Can you Spot Fake Science?

What are Some Examples of Pseudoscience?

Pseudoscience Often based on anecdotal evidence (hearsay or word of mouth) Selective use of data- individuals pick data that fits their conclusion Other examples of Pseudoscience Extraterrestrial visitors Advertising claims Example: The manufacturer of Nivea advertised that regular use of its My Silhouette cream would slim and reshape the body

Extrasensory Perception (ESP) ESP: Perception occurring independently of our five senses (hearing, touch, taste, sight, smell). Often referred to as “sixth sense” Parapsychology –study of psychic abilities including ESP

J. B. Rhine Father of Modern Parapsychology Conducted experiments at Duke University using Zener Cards to show ESP exists.

Zener Cards Circle Cross Wavy lines Square Star Deck of 25 cards that had one of five symbols on the cards The symbols are Circle Cross Wavy lines Square Star

ESP Not Considered Science Why? No repeatable experimental evidence No tools to measure ESP No biological explanation Rather, ESP considered pseudoscience
