Scientific Method
As inhabitants of a physical world, students require knowledge of the natural sciences, which in turn requires familiarity with the scientific method, standards of evidence, and the other tools necessary for interpreting data in the context of a hypothesis. Students will learn to observe, analyze, and quantify factors such as physiological, environmental, mechanical, and psychological phenomena. Knowledge of their participation in natural systems will provide students with a rich awareness of the interdependence of all physical systems while the skills acquired in their examination will enable students to cultivate responsible habits in the pursuit of a healthy life.
