Scientific Method

five-step process used to investigate scientific hypotheses

1. identify a problem

2. form a testable hypothesis

3. experiment

4. record experiment results

5. analyze results to form a conclusion

Page 3: The Scientific Revolution. Scientific Method five-step process used to investigate scientific hypotheses 1.identify a problem 2.form a testable hypothesis

The Scientific Revolution and Method led to major advances in a variety of areas.
