Science is not a fixed set of facts or a list of topics. It is a process through which we can continually improve our understanding of the world around us. In this class, we'll experiment with how these methods are applied to a wide variety of fields. Students will perform experiments with light, sound, and motion, search for patterns in what they find, and use those patterns to predict the outcome of further experiments. We will also see how these methods distinguish science from pseudoscience and can help us avoid being fooled.
