Aug. 15 MONDAY-B | The student knows that - investigations are conducted to explore new phenomena, to check on previous results, to test how well a theory predicts, and to compare different theories. (SC.H.1.4.1) - scientists control conditions in order to obtain evidence, but when that is not possible for practical or ethical reasons, they try to observe a wide range of natural occurrences to discern patterns.(SC.H.2.4.1) -technological problems often create a demand for a new scientific knowledge and that new technologies make it possible for scientists to extends their research in a way that advances science.(SC.H.3.4.2) |
