Curious observation and asking a question “Why or When, How or Where” regarding a phenomenon forms the first step of scientific method. To understand the problem clearly and come up with the “specific” question, you may need to consider, observe carefully, and use your reasoning skills. For this you may have to research, gather observable and measurable data according to your principles of reasoning. The way you look at a problem or a phenomenon, understand and approach it by asking the right question has a high probability of leading you to the correct solution. After you’ve made your observation and asked a question, conduct your research to gather information about the subject. To answer the question, the library and the Internet must be used to collect information. Also, explore and focus on the research work that has been carried out. Also, the process of researching must be impartial (公正的) for a fair interpretation of the results. All the data and methods must be documented and shared properly. This enables the data to be carefully studied by other researchers. A hypothesis (假设) is a possible theory that is formed after observing and analyzing a certain phenomenon and can provide a probable answer to the problem. Every scientific experiment is based on a hypothesis which gives you an idea to approach the problem and conduct the related experiment. Researchers sticking to the scientific method employ hypotheses to explain various phenomena and also design experimental studies to test these hypotheses. |
