I really enjoyed this forum post/article. I believe that it captures the truth behind students and educators who may truly not understand science for what it is. Basically, this is explaining that it is ok. Through critical thinking and inquiry, there is much more to science that meets the eye. These 9 core ideas are determined to assist with the representation of objectives that will aid in classroom instruction. Although many believe that science basis off of factual concepts, there is much more to it. We are able to explore, question, and engage, before comprehension. This article gave us so much explanation on that.

I loved how this article addressed how science is very creative.The subject of science requires students to use critical thinking and problem solving. It is more to science than just facts and conclusions. The advanced thinking leads to gaining new knowledge. For students to grasp science, they must have an open mind and to not give up on a rejected hypothesis. Students also should accept that science does not answer every question. In other words, there are limits to what we as a people know in areas of science. For instance, there are scientific theories such as the Theory of Evolution. That theory cannot become a scientific law because no human can prove it. No one living today was around years ago with the caveman. Archeologists can look at fossils from the caveman times but those artifacts do not answer that “how” and “why” questions. I think that the key ideas this article mentioned is crucial for me to address to my future students for them to truly understand the science content.
