Some
goals might be to help the students to:
|
|
|
|
– |
understand
that science is based on careful observation and
|
|
is
not just a plausible account that may or may not be true
|
|
|
|
– |
understand
that a critical element in building a scientific
|
|
|
view
is building a consistent and coherent picture of a
|
|
|
large
body of disparate phenomena
|
|
|
|
– |
understand
that science is not just a description of exotic
|
|
|
phenomena
but builds on and refines our everyday
|
|
|
experience
and intuition
|
|
|
|
– |
appreciate
the power and grandeur of our current
|
|
|
understanding
of our place in the universe.
