In this class, students will learn the basic steps to the scientific method and how it applies to science and real life. We will go through and use examples for each main step of the scientific method. Students will see it modeled and then provide examples. As a teacher, I use the MAWL method: Model, Assist, Watch, Let Go. I will model the method, assist the students, watch the students, and launch them to be independent in the skill. Students will be fully engaged through power point slides, short videos, interactive discussion, teacher and student modeling, as well as inspiration from others.
Learning Goals
Students will display a basic understanding of the scientific method.
