📋 What it is
The scientific method underlies EVERY field — from ecosystems to atoms, you observe, hypothesise, and test.
🗣️ Coach says
One method runs through all of science. Whether you’re studying wolves, weather, or water molecules, you observe, guess, and test. Master the method and every science topic becomes approachable.
