Read the remaining “myths” in the article, The Principle Elements of the Nature of Science: Dispelling the Myths, by W.F. McComas. Then, reflect on your own understanding of science both before and after having read the article. Do not exceed one full page, double spaced, but use as much room as is necessary to address the following topics: Identify some of the myths you had believed to be true and why you had those misconceptions. How did the clarifications in this article change how you view science? Were those changes for better or worse? What are some aspects of the scientific process that have become more confusing, or unclear, after reading this article? Does a more full understanding of the scientific process make you optimistic, pessimistic, or indifferent to the prospects of being a scientist?
