Scientific Method Lessons For Kids

Did you know there is no such thing as The Scientific Method?
Then why is it taught in public school?

One of the most serious problems we face in public schools is that students are not gaining any critical thinking skills. They are being spoon-fed answers with no idea how to reach those answers on their own.

The reason for this is simple. We have created a generation of test-takers. The kids don't need to think for themselves when all they need to do is memorize to pass "the test."

And with memorization and no understanding, no real learning takes place.

The fix for this is teach your child
how to think.

There is no one Scientific Method, but there is scientific thinking.

And scientific thinking is the process your child will use throughout his entire life to solve life's problems.

Without a knowledge of scientific thinking, your child has no recourse but to believe anyone who claims to be an expert and gives him facts to memorize. As an example, the take-on-faith subject of global warming.

In this course, your child will:

• Explore the truth behind the ten myths of science. For example...
  
  
  The most-quoted line you hear about "the hypothesis" is a flat-out lie.
  
  
  Just because something is a scientific theory doesn't mean isn't true.
  
  
  Science is not the answer to all questions.
  
  
  And seven more...

• Trace the history of scientific thinking and pseudoscience.
  
  
  Discover the history of the fallacy of geocentrism.
  
  
  Find out how proof to the contrary convicted one of the best known thinkers in Europe of heresy.
  
  
  Uncover the pseudoscience behind a popular method of prediction.
  
  
  

• Learn how to think scientifically.
  
  
  Your child will learn why scientific thinking is critical to him,
  
  
  how scientists really solve problems,
  
  
  and how he can solve them for himself.

What you'll receive in this course:

• Six video modules, each a 10-15 minute complete discussion of one aspect of scientific thinking.
• Three transcripts of the video modules to cover all modes of learning.
• Three audio files in both iPod and MP3 formats to use as refreshers.
• Three hands-on activities to reinforce the lessons and let your child apply scientific thinking.
• A hand-out illustrating the process of modern scientific thinking to visualize the concepts discussed in the videos.
• A complete test, including test, answer sheet, and answer key.
