The Nature of Science

[9:07]

This is the 4th video in our series of classroom supplements. We covered the scientific method in our previous video, but I thought we really needed to explain it a bit more for the high school kids. Because it’s very rare that they’re told what constitutes evidence, the difference between a theory and a law, between hypotheses and theory and what ‘theory’ really means. Essentially I’m just repeating my last presentation on epistemology.
