What Is Science?
Science is not just a collection of facts, but science is much, much more. Science involves:
★ Observing what’s happening;
★ Classifying or organizing information;
★ Predicting what will happen;
★ Testing predictions under controlled conditions to see if they are correct; and
★ Drawing conclusions.
Science involves trial and error—trying, failing and trying again. Science doesn’t provide all the answers. It requires us to be skeptical so that our scientific “conclusions” can be modified or changed altogether as we make new discoveries.
