Scientific Method Application
Scientific Method Application
As we learned from the module reading this week, at its core science is simply a method for investigating the world around us. Making observations, forming hypotheses, and testing them.
For this week’s assignment, think of a situation where someone used the scientific method. This can be major or minor, in a business, at school or in society.
Describe the process you went through and explain the following:
What question were they trying to address?
What hypothesis did they formulate?
How did they test it—what was their “experiment”?
What was the result?
If they were trying to make this a more formal experiment, what is something that they could do differently to test their ideas even more effectively?
Did they use a control? Did they repeat the test? What other variables could you investigate or eliminate?
Write a paper in conformity with the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.. Your paper should be between pages long. Items that should be included, at a minimum, are a title page, an introduction, a body (which answers the questions posed in the problem), and a conclusion paragraph (that addresses your findings and what you have determined from the data and your analysis). As with all written assignments, you should have in-text citations and a reference page too. In the body of your assignment response, please include any tables of calculations, calculated values, and graphs associated with this problem. Your reference section should include at least one peer-reviewed, scholarly reference.
