Science is defined as the systematic search for knowledge through observation and experimentation. It involves developing a hypothesis and testing it through experiments where variables are controlled. The results are then interpreted to evaluate the hypothesis. Important attitudes for scientists include being careful, creative, objective, curious, and intellectually honest. Science skills allow people to infer conclusions, form hypotheses, control variables during experiments, and interpret data to build understanding. Science provides knowledge that enables technology applications and improves lives.

- 1. SCIENCE: Definition, Process Skills and Attitudes Prepared by: Erlison Lorenz M. Ognilla
- 3. What is Science? What have you learned and what do you expect to learn?
- 4. Science is the search for knowledge or truth. It is a systematized body of knowledge based on facts and evidences through experimentation and observation. And the application of knowledge is technology
- 5. Attitudes that scientists possess are: 1. Careful judgment- not easily jumping to a conclusion. Judgment is based on facts and reliable information 2. Creativity- can generate new ideas 3. Critical mindedness- willing to evaluate pieces of evidences 4. Curiosity- never stop learning 5. Humility-
- 6. Attitudes that scientists possess are: 6. Intellectual honesty-acknowledge the source of information 7. Objectivity- record actual observations and data accurately 8. Patience- 9. Resourcefulness 10. Rationality- believe that things happen for a reason
- 7. Science Process Skills are the following: Inferring- process of giving logical meaning or tentative explanation to an observation Formulating Hypothesis- an educated guess Controlling Variables- factors that can change in an experiment Interpreting Data- explain the meaning of something Experimenting- process of testing hypothesis
- 8. Inference 1. Rub your hands together. Do it slowly and then rapidly and more vigorously. 2. What is your observation? 3. What inferences can you make based on your observations?
- 9. Formulating Hypothesis 1. Light the candle. Let it stand on the table. 2. Cover the lighted candle with a glass of jar.
- 10. What are the importance of science in our lives?
