Presentation 1: The Scientific Method and Other Methods of Rational Inquiry
Channel: Mathematical Science Research Launchpad
Date: 2020-07-30

The subject of this video lesson is rational inquiry.  In it, we introduce both the scientific method and the SIAM modeling process in detail and illustrate each methodology with an example.  We also briefly outline other methods of rational inquiry, including PDSA, CRISP-DM, and ASUM-DM. 

This video lesson supports the Probability and Statistics Core Learning Resource (CLR) (https://mathsciresearchlaunchpad.wordpress.com/probability-and-statistics/) at the Mathematical Science Research Launchpad.
