Course Description
Overview
Explore common misconceptions about science in this 32-minute video from the series "Understanding the Misconceptions of Science." Delve into the dynamic nature of scientific knowledge, challenging the notion that science is merely a method rather than a body of knowledge. Examine how the scientific method generates and refines our understanding of the world, emphasizing that scientific truths are subject to change as new information emerges. Investigate key concepts such as the malleability of scientific facts, the true nature of science, and the importance of developing a deep understanding of the scientific method. Compare scientific models and theories, explore the complex procedures involved in scientific inquiry, and discuss core concepts of metaphysics and epistemology. Analyze the differences between scientific and religious faith, and reinforce the idea that science is an ongoing process of discovery rather than a static collection of facts.
