Science is a systematic process for acquiring the knowledge necessary to comprehend the natural world. It is concerned with investigating and understanding natural phenomena.
Science is a way of thinking that includes the observation, collection and manipulation of data.
The evaluation and interpretation of results are critical as science requires verifiability and reliability for any information or concepts to be held. The study of science focuses on critical thinking and logical reasoning. Learning science does not simply involve the memorization of facts and formulas. It requires an understanding and investigation of concepts in order to verify them through experiments. When science is learned through scientific inquiry, students are able to view science as an interdisciplinary study applicable to the changing world.
