Styles of Scientific Reasoning, Scientific Practices and Argument in Science ...Elsa von Licy
The document discusses various topics related to scientific reasoning, practices, and argumentation including different styles of scientific thinking, features of scientific knowledge, and teaching and learning science. It provides examples of "crazy ideas" in science that are now accepted, examines the role of argument in science, and outlines the scientific practices and central questions of science. It also discusses developing models, planning investigations, analyzing data, and constructing explanations as key scientific practices.
The document summarizes the key memories the author has of science from their childhood and school experiences. In 5th grade, they made clouds out of cotton balls in science class. They joined their middle school's Science Olympiad team in 6th grade where they competed in rocks and minerals and built a wooden car. They continued participating in Science Olympiad through 8th grade. In 7th and 8th grade science class, they made a mitosis song and planet PowerPoints. These hands-on experiences in science classes and extracurricular activities helped spark their interest and concentration in science.
The atomic bomb was invented by the Manhattan Project, a massive scientific research program led by the United States during World War II. The project involved over 130,000 people and was headed up by physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer. However, the work of physicist Leo Szilard was also instrumental in getting the project started earlier. Szilard had the initial idea that a nuclear chain reaction could be used for a bomb and pushed hard to get funding, partnering with Albert Einstein to convince the US government to fund nuclear weapons research. This ultimately led to the creation of the Manhattan Project and the invention of the atomic bomb years earlier than may have otherwise occurred.
1. The book introduces the formula for change: Motivation x Ability = Change. For real change to occur, both motivation and ability must be addressed.
2. The authors identify six sources of influence that can be leveraged to drive change: personal motivation, personal ability, social motivation, social ability, structural motivation, and structural ability. Successful change initiatives activate multiple sources.
3. Vital behaviors are identified - the few key actions that must be performed consistently to achieve a goal
This document provides an overview of key concepts in science education, including:
1. Definitions of science as a body of knowledge and a process of inquiry.
2. The importance of an inquiry-based approach to science instruction that parallels scientific practice.
3. National standards and frameworks that aim to define what students should know in science, including Science for All Americans and the National Science Education Standards.
4. Current reforms advocating reducing science content standards to allow for more in-depth study of core concepts.

Science is the study of nature's rules through observation and experimentation. Mathematics is the language of science because it allows relationships to be expressed concisely and unambiguously. The scientific method involves making hypotheses and predictions then testing them through experimentation. For a hypothesis to be considered scientific, it must be testable and have a way to potentially prove it wrong. Science differs from art and religion in that it discovers and records natural phenomena through observation rather than addressing meaning or experience. Progress is now generally faster than in past centuries due to rapid scientific and technological advancement.

This document discusses building scientific inquiry skills from infancy through elementary school. It outlines how inquiry can look different at each developmental stage, from developing vocabulary and encouraging questioning in infants and toddlers, to more sophisticated investigations led by school-aged children with teacher scaffolding. The document provides examples of inquiry-based activities for different ages, and emphasizes creating an environment where children can explore, ask questions, and investigate concepts through hands-on experiences. National and state standards for scientific inquiry are also summarized.
This document summarizes a gallery walk activity. Students are invited to explore student work around the room, notice what they observe and wonder about the work, and share their comments and thoughts by writing them on sticky notes to post near the student pieces. The purpose is for students to wonder, discover, and share about what they see.

The document provides an overview of science, including:
- Science is the study of nature's rules through observation and experimentation.
- There are different branches of science including life sciences, physical sciences, and earth sciences.
- Physics is considered the most basic science that concepts in other sciences build upon.
- The scientific method and use of mathematics allow for unambiguous expression of relationships.
- Scientific hypotheses must be testable and able to be proven wrong through experimentation.
- Science, technology, and society are interrelated with scientific knowledge applied through technology.
This document discusses research on effective science instruction for early childhood students. Several studies found that students learn science best when instruction is hands-on, inquiry-based and relevant to students' lives. When students participate in activities that model scientific work and use tools like science journals, they gain a better understanding of science content and the work of scientists. Constructivist teaching methods that utilize active learning, student experimentation and naturalistic lessons in outdoor environments were found to improve student achievement in science.
Unit 2 learning in science as the development of big ideasSLINDILE MATHEBULA
This document outlines principles of science education and identifies big ideas in science. It discusses ten principles for science education, including developing curiosity and enjoyment of science. Fourteen big ideas are identified, including ideas about particles, forces, energy, evolution, and implications of science. Big ideas are important for helping students understand the world and enable informed decisions. High-stakes testing can limit what is taught, but identifying big ideas supports inquiry-based learning and cognitive progression in science understanding.
This document discusses the scientific method and scientific theories. It explains that scientific theories are well-substantiated explanations of aspects of the natural world based on repeated observation and experimentation. Theories are created from hypotheses that have been tested through the scientific method and gather evidence. Scientific theories can explain diverse phenomena and make falsifiable predictions, making them the most reliable form of scientific knowledge. Theories and laws are both produced through the scientific method but theories are broader in scope and can unify and explain laws.

THE ETHICS OF ELEPHANTS IN CIRCUSES
This is the argument in
Standard Form.
Standard Form means
putting each premise
and conclusion on a
separate line, as
observed here. Labeling
the premises P1, P2, etc.
is also helpful to be able
to refer to them later.
The next four
paragraphs
provide
support for
each premise
of the
argument.
The topic of
each
paragraph is

sentence.
It is good to
provide
clarification of
the meaning of
premises as well
(as indicated in
the instructions).
P1: Elephants are highly intelligent animals.
P2: Putting elephants in circuses requires them to live their
lives in extreme confinement.
P3: Anything that requires highly intelligent animals to
live their lives in extreme confinement is wrong unless it serves
a purpose that outweighs the suffering involved.
P4: Putting elephants in circuses does not serve a purpose that
outweighs the suffering involved.
C: Therefore, putting elephants in circuses is wrong.
The first premise has been widely known for decades by those who
have studied elephants. Scientific studies have shown that elephants are
able to independently discover novel methods to figure out how to retrieve
food, and they have recently been shown to be able to enlist the help of
other elephants in situations that require cooperation (Jabr, 2014).
The second premise is justified by looking at how elephants are
treated in circuses. When not performing or being transported, circus
elephants are kept on a short chain that prevents them from being able
to move around or even lie down normally. This is what is meant by
‘extreme confinement’: captivity so severe that the animal is not able
to get proper exercise and stimulation. In addition to the captivity, there

have been many reports, and footage, of abuse of circus elephants with bullhooks, electrocution, and
other forms of cruelty (Nelson, 2011).
The third premise makes a strong moral claim. Given the intelligence of elephants, and their
natural use of vast savannahs of space, life spent on a tiny chain will involve a tremendous amount of
suffering. They develop “stereotypic behaviors” such as constant swaying back and forth, indicating
severe psychological distress (Wildlife Advocacy Project, n.d.). President of PAWS, Ed Stewart, expresses
it well:
Elephants should not be in captivity – period … The social structure isn’t correct, the space is not
right, the climate is not right, the food is not right … They are unbelievably intelligent. With all of
that brainpower – to be as limited as they are in captivity – it’s a wonder they cope at all. (Jabr,
2014)

3. 1. The Sun moves
2. If you jumped up you would not land in the same
spot
3. If the Earth was spinning at that rate, the speed at
the equator is over a 1000 mph and you should be
flung off
Arguments against a Spinning Earth?

7. “There is an anaesthetic of familiarity, a sedative of
ordinariness which dulls the senses and hides the
wonder of existence”.
12. The Cultural Achievement of Science (Crazy
Ideas)
● Day and Night are caused by a Spinning Earth
● The Continents have moved
● We have evolved from other animals
● The Earth is 5 billion years old
● Diseases are caused by tiny living organisms
● We live at the bottom of a sea of air
● You look like your parents because every cell carries a
chemically coded message of how to reproduce yourself
18. Best Summary?
(a) One pupil had the most breaths and she also had
the highest pulse rate.
(b) All the people with a high breath rate had a high
pulse rate.
(c) The higher your breathing rate, the greater the
pulse rate.
(d) On the whole, those people with a higher breath
rate had a higher pulse rate.

engineering, and mathematics. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 111:8410–8415.
25. Stephen Norris
To ask of other human beings that they accept and memorize
what the science teacher says, without any concern for the
meaning and justification of what is said, is to treat those
human beings with disrespect and is to show insufficient care
for their welfare. It treats them with a disrespect, because
students exist on a moral par with their teachers, and therefore
have a right to expect from their teachers reasons for what the
teachers wish them to believe. It shows insufficient care for
the welfare of students, because possessing beliefs that one is
unable to justify is poor currency when one needs beliefs that
can reliably guide action.

Content-Transcendent Goals of Science Education." Science Education
81(2): 239-258.
30. Performance Expectations
Analyze and interpret data on the properties
of substances before and after the
substances interact to determine if a
chemical reaction has occurred
31.
32. Research Questions
1. Identify some of the pedagogical strategies necessary
to promote ‘‘argument’’ skills in young people in
science lessons.
2. Trial the pedagogical strategies and determine the
extent to which their implementation enhances
teachers’ pedagogic practice with ‘‘argument.’’
3. Determine the extent to which lessons that follow
these pedagogical strategies lead to enhanced quality
in students’ arguments.
35. How do we know?
Plants get most of their matter from photosynthesis?
Day and Night are caused by a spinning Earth?
Matter is conserved in a chemical reaction?
We live at the bottom of a sea of air?
40. Scientific Practices
1. Ask Questions & Define Problems
2. Develop and Use Models
3. Plan and Carry out Investigations
4. Analyze and Interpret Data
5. Use Mathematical and Computational Thinking
6. Construct Explanations & Design Solutions
7. Engage in Argument from Evidence
8. Obtain, Evaluate and Communicate Information
44. In Conclusion
“I am sorry that I have had to leave so many problems
unsolved. I always have to make this apology, but
education really is rather puzzling and I cannot help it. “
