Science as Construction
Science is a story that is always on the Best Seller list! No longer can we look at anything scientific at face value, because everything is a continuous story. There can't be any conclusions because what you conclude can be interpreted in a lot of different ways that weren't looked at previously. Is the Earth flat? Is an egg oval shaped? Are shoes always for feet? Let's look at everything from other views. I don't know all of the science that I've been hired to teach to middle school students, but I'm trying to master the content enough to make it presentable to them. I don't profess to be the best science teacher they will ever have, but I will give them multiple opportunities to discover science through hands on exploration. Does all science have other conclusions? If you put Keith's cup of water into a freezer, you can't dispute that the liquid becomes a solid, or that that frozen solid is called ice. You can make many other observations about that cup of ice, but what other summary can you come to regarding what happened to the water- except in describing it through other disciplines like physics or engineering. So, isn't some science definite, and con't be described any further?
