Task #1- Me, A Scientist

This is an individual work. Read and analyze carefully the story below and exercise
your critical thinking in answering the set of questions that follows.
You are travelling and driving alone from Abuyog Leyte coming back to Tacloban City when
all of a sudden your car stopped from running. Your first hypothesis was the car has run out
of fuel. So, to test your hypothesis, you performed a very simple experiment by getting a stick
and placing in the gas container to determine if it has no more fuel. Then you remove the
stick and carefully look (sense of sight) for markings that serve as your important
information or data that will explain your hypothesis that the reason why your car has
stopped from running is the absence of fuel. Then, you found out that there’s enough
fuel so you made a conclusion that it’s not the fuel that caused your car to stop running.

Questions (15 points):

1.What other hypotheses can you make that might led you to the right solution to your
problem that you are facing now?
o Dead Battery
o Electrical Issues
2. How will you test your hypotheses?
o Check the voltage gauge if it meets the voltage to get the engine running.

o Check the engine oil using dip stick if it has enough oil
3. What senses are you going to use to gather data or observations?
o Sense of sight
4. What conclusion can be drawn from the analysis of the data or observations gathered?
➢ I found out that the battery is dead, so it is the reason why my car stop working.
5. If your second hypothesis did not arrive to the answer to your problem, are you going
to stop there and leave the car without getting the solution?
➢ No, I will not leave the car,
So, what’s the next thing that you should do?
 ➢ I will move to my third hypothesis untill I find the reason why my car stop.

6. When are you going to stop hypothesizing about what happened to your car?
➢ I’ll stop hypothesizing when I already found out what is the reason why my cars stop
running,
7. What lesson can you learn from the application of the scientific method to real life
problems?
➢ Solving problem requires hypothesis to be solve, we can’t just stop easily if we can’t
find the main reason of the problem, we just need to find some ways to solve it.
8-10. What scientific traits or values should you develop when confronted with day to
day problems and challenges? Cite at least three (3)
➢ Objectivity
➢ Curiosity
➢ Logic
11-12. When can a method becomes scientific?
➢ A method becomes scientific when the basic process involves making an observation,
forming a hypothesis, making a prediction, conducting an experiment and finally
analyzing the results.
13-15. When can our thinking become scientifically critical?
➢ Our thinking becomes scientifically critical when we are conceptualizing, applying,
analyzing, synthesizing, and/or evaluating information gathered from, or generated
by, observation, experience, reflection, reasoning or from communication.
