Overview–what makes science what it is?

We will start this module by considering what makes science science–i.e. what are the defining characteristics of science. There are two articles illustrating an essential feature of science–be sure you read them and answer the discussion questions.

While science is the “best” way of knowing, it is not perfect–and so we will review the common sources of error that can creep into science.

Be sure you read the materials on the politics of science and the failure to replicate issue. Finally there is a must watch you tube offering John Oliver’s crash course on science. There are discussion questions on all of the preceding items.
