Science Method/Processes


Why do you think that it is important for scientists to follow the science method/processes when conducting an experiment?

Do you think that all scientists use all the processes or part of the scientific method all of the time? When wouldn't they use them all?

Please include the processes that we have talked about in class to support your answer.

Your answer should be at least 3-5 sentences in length. Also check your answer for spelling and grammar before posting it.

  1. It is very important for a scientist to fallow the procedure. It is important for scientist to fallow the procedure because they could get a wrong answer. A way they could get the wrond answer is because the notes get mixed up and could get missed placed, the scientist may think one of his notes say one thing bbut it really means another.

  2. I think that they should follow it because they would not make errors. They should use all parts because it affects the outcome if you leave out a step. For example, if you leave out the testing process, you would never know if your hypothesis is correct.

  3. I think that it is impotant for scientest to follow the procedure. Because if they don't they might mess something very impotant up. They might not have to do the hypothesis but it is impotant to do the procedure and conclusion. they also should make shure that everthing is safe they should probally use safety goggles and glove.

  4. The scientific method is important to use because when you are working with chemicals you might not go through variables amd get the wrong amount and you would have to start over and that would...suck.
    When you are observing someting wild like life in the Brazilain jungle you might not need a hypothesis becuase your just exploring and observing you still need variables and that's about it.

  5. The scientific method is very important when conducting an expirement because something could go wrong, and that, depending on what procedure you are doing, could be very bad. I do not think that scientists follow all of the processes to the scientific method all the time. I don't think they'd have to use it all the time because if you were studying the organs of a tiger, you probably wouldn't need a hypothesis. Of course, you couldn't leave out the procedure or record keeping, the expirement just wouldn't work.

  6. I think it's important for scientists to follow the method when conducting an experiment to prevent any damage or harm or any possible wrong answers. You should always follow the method so the procedure would also be correct, and safe like I said before. I also strongly believe all scientists should follow the method all the time prevent all the errors and possible wrong answers as example: Follow the method = Safe, and correct experiment as, Don't follow the method = Dangerous, and wrong answers. If you conduct the experiment right you should still take caution to what you're doing ex: Goggles, No tasting or smelling incorrectly = SAFE AND CORRECT EXPERIMENTS, No goggles, tasting and not smelling properly = DANGER!!

  7. I think scientist should follow the scientific method. I agree with the scientific method because it can prove your hypothesis true, false, or partly true. It does this by using a set of standards and procedures to come up with a conclusion.

  8. I think scientists should use a process.It will lead them to the answer of thier hypothesis as in if it was true,false,or half-true.I highly reccomend a process/procedure for working with chemicals to safe.Some people don't like to plan;they like to be free and watch what happens.I think that is totally up to the person.

  9. I think it is important to follow the procedure because if you don't there could be danger. Also it can mess up your experiment and you would have to start over and if you are on let’s say the 21st step and there are 24 steps you aren't going to want to start over. You might be so far away from your hypothesis but could change if you have already gotten far away from the answer. But if you are all like “I just want to see what happens" you can go ahead as long as it's safe. In science safety is the only thing that matter. If you want to figure something out but it is very dangerous than I would just forget it. If you don't know what something is then don't smell, touch, or eat it. If you follow all of these steps than you will most likely be safe.

  10. I think it is important to fallow the procedure so that you can prove your hypothesis is correct. And it proves what answer you do find. It is also important because it helps you organize thoughts. It's important you write the procedure down because the person might want to prove his or her answer right, but they can't if they don't do the the same thing the last time they did it.

  11. i think that they should always do what is told so they wont mess up on the experament. It is also important for a scientist to always follow the procedure.

  12. I think it is important for the scientist to follow the procedure or they might mess up the experiment. They should also use the process and procedure if doing something with chemicals. You should always where safety goggles when doing a experiment. If you didn't do the conclusion you you would never know if your hypothesis is correct. So you would never want to leave out a part of the scientific method.

  13. yes i do think it is inportant for scientiest to use the scientific method no not all scietist use the scietific method

  14. It is important to make sure that you go in the order of the scientific method because if you don’t it will affect your outcome. Lots of people have a hypothesis’, but if you do not follow the scientific method you can not have a true outcome.

    I think they use the scientific method all the time, but I do not think they use all of the methods because there are different methods. By not following the scientific method, it can be dangerous and can lead you to the wrong conclusion.

  15. I think that they should follow it because it helps you not make an error. I think that not all scientists use the whole scientific method and that's fine as long as you use the most important parts of it.

  16. I think that all scientests shall follow certain directions to there experiment or invention because you never know what can or what will happen you always need certain parts to an experiment so make sure you have them!

  17. It is very important to establish your tests and follow them exactly. This way you can compare results from running the tests many times. This makes it possible for the scientist to present the results with lots of information from the same test.

  18. I think it's important to follow the steps of the scientific process. I think that all scientists do follow all the steps of the scientific method. It's important to do all steps and do it the same each time, because if you don't, you can't compare your test answers properly.

  19. I think scientist should follow the method because something could happen when you change all at once and it would be hard to collect data.If you change data all at once you couldn't collect data because it would be to hard. You first have to get all your materials. Then you need to make sure you collect your data. then you start. I love science.

  20. It is important to follow it so you can get the right answer. They usualy use the scientific method. They would not use it if they were doing something else.

  21. I think it's important for scientists, students, and teachers to use the scientific method because it helps keep you organized. I also think that it can effect your outcome. I hope that scientists use the scientific method because if they don't then scientists who make medicine and vitamins may make it wrong because they didn't use the scientific method. I think that maybe some scientists don't use it because they can make the thing that they are making faster. I think that it helps record data well too.

  22. I think all scientest should follow certain directions because what if the invention or experiment has a certain reaction? Every good scientest has certain ingreedants, like googles incase it gets you in the eye and gloves incase of acsidental spill. I love science!

  23. Scientist should use the scientific method incase they mess up . scientist should also use the scientific method because most of the time scientist have diffrent results. scientist should be safe

  25. I think you should follow the science method because it is really important
    for your safety.No because sometimes you might not need to if its not important. But sometimes you might need to if your dealing with acids or chemicals or something like that. You might need to use them all if your dealing with something really really dangers to make shore your safe.

  26. It is important to get the right answer. They usualy use the scientific method they would not use it if they were using something else. Im still loving science. Ciaran Mcintyre

  27. i think scientist should follow the method because they could accidently misplace or mix up notes. Scientist should follow the method because if an acid spills then you have goggles and stuff like that to protect your body from dangerous chemicals.

  28. I think its important to use the method because if you don't you might get the wrong conclusion. I think scientists use the method because, again as i said, they might get the wrong conclusion, or their hypothesis might be wrong. I think scientists use the method at all times because if they don't state a question, how do you know what their asking? Thats all i have to say.

  29. I think scientists should follow the procedure if anything goes wrong with the experiment.Its also good for them to use the method in case they mess up.I also think it could effect there out come when it comes to that.i think scientist should always be prepare.

  30. I think that evrey one shold follw the scintifc method. Becase altho fun it can be danger so plese follow the method. becase scince is dangerous evan
    when your wering glases so plese use special glaases.

  31. I think that sceine is really fun and dangerous too.So to do a exspariment you will need a piar of googles. a lab coat just in case too.

  32. I think that they should follow it because it helps you not make an error. I think that not all scientists use the whole scientific method and that's fine as long as you use the most important parts of it. They still can make errors even when they use the scientific method. If they use the they have less of a chance of making an error but they still aren't invincible though.

  33. Yes i think the thing is good
