information and formulating it into a bigger picture that impacts the world. Scientific research usually has a goal to solve a problem in nature or develop technology that will positively lead to an unknown discovery. For example, a chemist will try to produce a cancer drug, but in turn, discover new methods of determining bond structures of a certain element. Science is always open to question and revision, because no one scientific idea is set and stone or proved. Because, science is always…

Research Problem and Hypotheses In brain and cognitive development related critical thinking and learning process, researchers found it started from early years learning (Berk, 2003; Nutbrown, 2006).

In addition, they utilized qualitative methods to determine whether or not participants implemented their previous career projects (Perdrix, Stauffer, Masdonati, Massoudi, &…
