This document summarizes 3 academic articles and books that reference the scientific method and its history. In 1-2 sentences: - The scientific method has its roots in ancient times but was formalized between the 15th-18th centuries by scientists like Copernicus, Brahe, Kepler, Galileo, Descartes, and Newton. - Scientific processes like inquiry and theory construction have occurred naturally in human cognition and are a key part of STEM education. - Historically the scientific method guided discovery but with big data it now involves more than just the traditional method.

... STEM education activities involve scientific processes and engineering design. Scientific
processes are a methodological approach to the process of inquiry in which empirically
grounded theories of nature are constructed and verified (Betz, 2011). Scientific processes
occur naturally and spontaneously in our minds. ...

... Historically, scientific discovery has been guided by the scientific method, which dates to
ancient times and involves both a philosophical and practical approach to science. Indeed, the
renowned philosopher Aristotle (384-322 BC) was one of the first to approach knowledge
discovery through rigorous, systematic observation, although it wasn't until millennia later
that the scientific method was actually formalized and implemented, largely through the work
of Copernicus (1473-1543), Tycho Brahe (1546-1601), Johannes Kepler (1571-1630),
Galileo Galilei (1564-1642), Rene Descartes (1596-1765), and Isaac Newton (1643-1727)
(Gower 1997;Betz 2011). ...

The Yafteh cave in Iran has an intact Aurignacian sequence over 2m deep. First explored by
Frank Hole and Kent Flannery in the 1960s, its strata and assemblage are here re-evaluated at
first hand by a new international team. The authors show that the assemblage is genuine
Aurignacian and dates back to about 35.5K uncal BP. They propose it as emerging locally
and even as providing a culture of ... [Show full abstract]

• Michael E. Hyland

In this comment on the article by Papanicolaou, we introduce the concept of methodological


determinism and discuss the scientific status of the concept of free will. We argue that
determinism is an implicit heuristic assumption of modern science, dating back to Newton's
optics. Papanicolaou acknowledges that instances of free will being an illusion have been
corroborated. We add that the ... [Show full abstract]

One view of philosophy that is sometimes expressed, especially by scientists, is that while
philosophers are good at asking questions, they are poor at producing convincing answers.
And the perceived divide between philosophical and scientific methods is often pointed to as
the major culprit behind this lack of progress. Looking back at the history of philosophy,
however, we find that this ... [Show full abstract]
