Hardwood vs Baloney Detection

Hardwood Model:
The hardwood model is like a souped up more accurate version of the scientific method on steroids. I have learned that in this class that using the scientific method is not really accurate or appropriate anymore. The hardwood model always for better and more accurate research. It can be used as a step method to compare your research steps and findings to. One can look at this model to see what step they should take next if they are lost, or further enhance their research. The hardwood model is clear and simple and anyone can use this model.

Baloney Detection:
The Baloney detection is steps that you can use to conduct experiments to see if your own research is legit. It can be more importantly used to make sure others research is accurate and viable. There are many things out there that are not correct and should not just be taken in, but analyzed. This method helps use to debunk fact from fiction.

Both:
I think when conducting research both should be used and taken into consideration. I think students should look at these before, during, and after their experiments. This two methods used together can help them create better research. I think that all scientist should also have to use these before they come out to the public about their experiments. Learning about these two methods has opened my eyes to things I never knew. Becoming a science teacher, I will be able to show students how to use this at a young age, so they will learn how to validate things being learned and not just believing everything they hear. I think this not only will benefit me but students.
