Think Like A Scientist
The scientific method provides the framework for how
scientists approach problems, develop hypotheses, test those ideas, and share
their results. This series investigates a different step of the scientific
method and shows readers how scientists think critically about problems to
advance our understanding of nature, space, and ourselves. In addition to
examples from the real world of various scientific fields, each book inspires
students to apply these concepts and explore their own questions about the world
around them. Readers will be scientists-in-training, ready for the classroom,
and the universe at large.
