中文简介:
Bailyn教授谈到了学生对一篇关于冥王星争议的论文作业的反应。核心问题是,这场流行的辩论是否真的是一场“科学争议”。讨论了许多科学“寓言”,每个寓言都有一个寓意:冥王星的降级(寓意:科学可能受到文化的影响);51 Peg b的发现(道德:期待意想不到的事情,看看你的数据);脉动作为速度曲线解释的反驳(道德:有时科学就像科学一样工作)。
课程简介: Professor Bailyn talks about student responses for a paper assignment on the controversy over Pluto. The central question is whether the popular debate is indeed a "scientific controversy." A number of scientific "fables" are discussed and a moral is associated with each: the demotion of Pluto (moral: science can be affected by culture); the discovery of 51 Peg b (morals: expect the unexpected, and look at your data); the disproof of pulsation as explanation for the Velocity Curves (moral: sometimes science works like science).
关 键 词: 论文作业; 速度曲线; 科学争议
