The Scientific Method n 1. n 2. n 3. n 4. n 5.

The Scientific Method Collect information by observing nature.

The Scientific Method Analyze the information that you have to determine what the problem is.

The Scientific Method Problem State the Problem.

The Scientific Method What is my best guess for the solution of my problem? State my hypothesis. State my hypothesis.

The Scientific Method n 1. Identification of a problem n 2. Form a hypothesis n 3. n 4. n 5.

The Scientific Method Design an EXPERIMENT to confirm my guess.

The Scientific Method n 1. Identification of a problem n 2. Form a hypothesis n 3. Deductive reasoning - decide on a procedure (design an experiment) to test my hypothesis. How does deductive reasoning differ from inductive reasoning? n 4. n 5.

The Scientific Method Collect information to confirm my guess.

The Scientific Method n 1. Identification of a problem n 2. Form a hypothesis n 3. Deductive reasoning - decide on a procedure (design an experiment) n 4. Collect data and analyze n 5.

The Scientific Method Confirm or Reject my hypothesis (guess). OR ConfirmReject

The Scientific Method n 1. Identification of a problem n 2. Form a hypothesis n 3. Deductive reasoning - decide on a procedure (design an experiment) n 4. Collect data and analyze n 5. Confirm/Reject the hypothesis. Derive a conclusion (theory/law) n Note: We never prove a hypothesis with 100% certainty.

The Scientific Method Theory - accepted explanation for the behavior of nature Law - states a mathematical relationship between matter and its measured properties
