Prentice Hall Exploring Earth Science

by Anthea Maton Jean Hopkins Susan Johnson David Lahart Maryanna Quon Warner Jill D. Wright

If you think about it, you will quickly realize that there are many things you might question and seek answers to. Put another way, the universe is really a collection of countless mysteries. It is the job of scientists to solve those mysteries. The goal of science is to understand the world around us.

Prentice Hall Exploring Life Science

by Prentice Hall

Throughout your study of science, you will learn a variety of terms, facts, figures, and concepts. Each new topic you encounter will provide its own collection of words and ideas--which, at times, you may think seem endless. But each of the ideas within a particular topic is related in some way to the others. No concept in science is isolated. Thus it will help you to understand the topic if you see the whole picture; that is, the interconnectedness of all the individual terms and ideas. This is a much more effective and satisfying way of learning than memorizing separate facts.

Prentice Hall Exploring Physical Science

by Susan Johnson Jean Hopkins David Lahart Maryanna Quon Warner Jill D. Wright

The universe around you and inside of you is really a collection of countless mysteries. It is the job of scientists to solve those mysteries. The goal of science is to understand the world around us. How do scientists go about understanding the world? Like all good detectives, scientists use special methods to determine truths about nature. Such truths are called facts. Here is an example of a fact: The sun is a source of light and heat. But science is more than a list of facts--just as studying science is more than memorizing facts. Jules Henri Poincaré, a famous nineteenth-century French scientist who charted the motions of planets, put it this way: "Science is built up with facts, as a house is with stones. But a collection of facts is no more a science than a heap of stones is a house." So scientists go further than simply discovering facts. Scientists try to use facts to solve larger mysteries of nature. In this sense, you might think of facts as clues to scientific mysteries. An example of a larger mystery is how the sun produces the heat and light it showers upon the Earth. Another larger mystery is how the relatively few and simple organisms of 3 billion years ago gave rise to the many complex organisms that inhabit the Earth today. Using facts they have gathered, scientists propose explanations for the events they observe. Then they perform experiments to test their explanations. In the next section of this chapter, you will learn how scientists go about performing experiments and uncovering the mysteries of nature.

Prentice Hall Physical Science Concepts in Action

by Prentice Hall

The academic standards for physical science outline the scientific inquiry skills and core content for all physical science classes in South Carolina schools. Each standard specifies a particular range of science topics. Following each standard is a set of indicators that state the thought processes, content knowledge, and skills that students must demonstrate in order to meet the standard. Your physical science course is designed to provide you with a conceptual understanding of the world around you. The Science Academic Standards provide a basic structure for your physical science course by specifying important content areas and process skills. The knowledge gained from your physical science course will serve as the foundation for your other high school science courses. At the end of your physical science course, you will take the state-required end-of- course examination. The end-of-course examination tests your knowledge of the academic standards for physical science. Using this book will help you master the physical science standards in preparation for the end-of-course examination.
