Before NS 100, science to me was about discovery and learning how things work and why they work the way they do.

After much reading and watching a lot of videos, I have learned science is just that. It is a broad topic that can range from space, body and plants that require lots of testing and observing to find out exactly how the things work.

Continuing to learn about science and how it works is very interesting to me. I know there is a lot of information to learn but I am looking forward to further my knowledge in science.

As a student, the scientific method was all we used in school. Hearing about this in NS 100 was nothing new but a real refresher.  Scientific inquiry was a new term for me coming into NS 100.

Learning about these two methods of learning science, I have found out that they have similarities but overall are different. They both require a lot of research and analyzing data. However, scientific inquiry impacts students in a deeper way by letting students think outside the box and not forcing them to follow a step-by-step process.

Moving forward as a teacher I hope to use scientific inquiry to help students learn and grow in their science experience.

To me life is anything that has breath or has the ability to die. (humans, animals, plants)
During this class I learned more in depth things about life. Some characteristics of life are having homeostasis and DNA, the ability to reproduce and adapt.

Being alive means having living cells and having the ability to die. I think there is so much to the body and life to learn about and I look forward to continuing to grow.

I didn't really think about this before this science class. I understand that something we think is a small change can have very macroscopic effects. Small differences or changes in DNA can cause illness or diseases.

I have always struggled with science and completely understanding the topics in front of me. This class was a lot of information to obtain without having a professor to teach the lessons. I did find myself enjoying the videos and learning a few things.

I think teaching science requires group discussions and bouncing ideas off of each other. This class was difficult for that reason because you didn't have anyone to talk to about the lessons. I think as a teacher you need to make science lessons fun and have open dialogue with students. When observing teachers at my school group work and open conversation were top priority. I look forward to learning more about science ways to teach it in the future.
