“The Christian faith of the early scientists gave them more than presuppositions; it also gave them motivation. They believed that in studying nature they were discovering the wisdom and power of the Creator and were thus honouring Him.” James F. Jekel
OVERVIEW
Students will undertake some guided experiments before designing their own in-depth investigation. They will apply mathematical models and current scientific theory to interpret their data and explain their findings. Students will be mentored through the process, but will require motivation and self-direction. The course culminates with a formal presentation and celebration of student work.
