Theory of Constraints

“It is the weight, not numbers of experiments that is to be regarded”1. As Sir Isaac Newton, one of the most influential scientists in history, states – the design of an experiment is very important. Therefore, aspiring scientists must learn about many different types of techniques and its applications. Over the past six weeks, students were exposed to six experts discussing different fields of research but their studies contained many overlapping qualities. Some common topics discussed were…

Knots in my yo yo string figurative meaning says that in life there are challenges that we always at a time have to overcome. In my mind there are so many knots i can barely count them, because there are so many opportunities to give or receive. If you get you either have a knot that is meaningless or one that can hurt you in many different ways. In my story i have two knots one is i can overcome another it has amen a long time to overcome. I have always thought of this knot even from last year…

A scientific theory is a type of theory used in the scientific method. The term theory can mean something different, depending on who you ask.Most people use the word 'theory' to mean an idea or hunch that someone has, but in science the word 'theory' refers to the way that we interpret facts. Every scientific theory starts as a hypothesis. A scientific hypothesis is a suggested ending for an unexplained thing that happened. According to the Dictionary, a hypothesis is an idea that hasn't…

society, many people have good educational background however the usage of words sometimes did not match up to an individual’s knowledge. This can be seen using the word theory, especially in evolutionary theory. People usually refer to a theory as a guess and fact as the truth. However, according to the National Academy of Science, a theory is “a plausible or scientifically acceptable, well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world; an organized system of accepted knowledge…

Gerschick explained that theories are systematic attempts to make sense of a particular event or social phenomena that occurs in a given social setting. Depending on the given theorist, each had an individualistic approach to a particular phenomenon and their purpose was to lay out a way to interpret the facet of that social life (Kivisto). Each theory has a goal and that is to explain, predict and/or to understand the phenomena being explained (Gershcick). In order for a theory to be considered…

“Speculative Wunderkammer,” as Dunne and Raby names it, is a way to convey curiosity, to make the viewer wonder and imagine in a scale larger than an art piece or just a typical product design. For them, the position of the speculative design is always an issue. People generally tend to struggle when it comes to connect or relate themselves with the design they are looking at. However, this time they decided to dig even further. They decided to experiment with an exhibition curated by Michael…

“Science is not a body of facts. Science is a state of mind” (Angier 490). Both essays, “The Canon” by Natalie Angier and “Scientific Literacy and the Habit of Discourse” by Thomas W. Martin, discuss that science is not a set of facts to be learned, but is best practiced through actions. These two articles approach the topic differently by using different rhetorical modes and styles. Even though the article’s main points have similarities, the essays contain many differences through their…

1.Is there such a thing as truth in research? Expound upon your answer. Give an example. I believe looking at the truth in the aspect of research is often based on the concept of evidence or proof that is collected on the topic as well as the reality of what the dynamics of the subject is. We often build on the topic we investigate on by the information we gather on what we see as truth. The information of truth is usually based around research of examination. In the article "On Truth" it states…

The chapter “Thinking Scientifically,” from Natalie Angier's book, The Canon, analyzes the advantages of the application of scientific processes in daily life. This is first done through a description of science as a dynamic state of mind, rather than a list of facts to be memorized and regurgitated. In what amounts to a minor attack on the way science is regularly taught, Angier quotes David Stevenson, saying “Many teachers who don't have a deep appreciation of science present it as a set of…

Key Idea I The scientific method is a systematic approach used in scientific study, whether it is chemistry, biology, physics, or other sciences. Scientists uses this organized process to do research, it provides a way for scientist to compare the work of others. There are six steps in the scientific method, these steps are not used as a check list to be done in the same order each time. However, all scientist must describe there ways the most publish there results. Key Idea II A…
