The
use of the Cmethod to make new discoveries
is called scientific research, and the
people who carry out this research are
called scientists. Applied science, or
engineering, is the practical application of
scientific knowledge. Scientific literacy is
the ability of the general population to
understand the basic concepts related to
science. In the modern world, scientific
research is a major activity in all
developed nations, and scientists are
expected to publish their discoveries in
refereed journals, scientific periodicals
where referees check the facts in an article
before it is published. Even after
publication, new scientific ideas are not
generally accepted until the work has been
very closely double-checked and the
experiments reproduced by other researchers. |
