F- Human Creativity

Write this in your own words.

3. Creativity and innovation are needed. Logical reasoning, with the assistance

of human creativity, gives rise to scientific knowledge. Creativity can be seen

as our ability to create new knowledge by rearranging the connections of known

elements. In science we often re-evaluate a theory when new evidence is

discovered. By using creativity, we often find new ways to reason about the

existing evidence and then create new possible explanations.

4. Science is subjective: Presently accepted scientific theories and laws

influence and drive the questions, investigations, and interpretations regarding

phenomena in the natural world. Scientists conduct their work based on these

accepted theories. Their own values, agendas and prior experiences have an

influence on their work. It is nearly impossible for a person to remove all of their

biases and, therefore, all scientific work has a small element of subjectivity
