Science Was Broken — And Bayesian Reasoning Saved It

SMRTR summary

Science education often focuses on memorizing facts and formulas, but this approach misses the essence of scientific inquiry. True science is a dynamic process of observation, questioning, and hypothesis testing. Scientists formulate falsifiable hypotheses and deduce observable consequences to support or refute them. This method, represented as H→E (hypothesis implies evidence), allows for the systematic investigation of the universe. Shifting science education towards this process-oriented approach could foster better understanding and engagement with scientific thinking.
