PHYS 1210 - The Language of Science (3)
A study of the process by which scientists acquire, analyze, and organize information. The student is challenged to observe carefully, to experiment, to analyze critically, and to synthesize results into an analytical (i.e. mathematical) formalism. The student thus learns by actively exploring the physical world rather than merely reading about it. Practice of the scientific method is emphasized more than coverage of a definite body of knowledge. (Two lecture and two laboratory hours per week)
