- How is a scientist like a good detective? Use the attitudes of a scientist and the scientific method to discuss.
Scientist is like a good detective because both have attitudes of a scientist and use the scientific method. Honesty is important to be true to the data and publish date/results. Curiosity- leads to new questions and hypotheses. Skepticism- allows one to question results and and re-think hypothesis. Openmindness allows them to honk outside the box and surcharge for other answers. Creativity allows them to think of new ways to develop equipment and see new possibilities for new discoveries, etc.
