Correction: In this video, we conflate a hypothesis with a prediction. In science, a hypothesis is a tentative explanation for an observed phenomenon. It aims to answer: Why does something happen? A prediction, on the other hand, is a reasoned guess about what might happen if we test that hypothesis in an experiment. To revisit our egg example, a true scientific hypothesis might be: "Eggshells inhibit pressure from being released from eggs." We might test that hypothesis by microwaving eggs both with and without shells to see if pressure from the heat gets trapped, leading to explosion. If our hypothesis is correct, we predict that the shelled egg will explode and the shell-less egg will not. These two terms are often blended in textbooks, classrooms, and even at times by working scientists. But they are actually two separate, though closely linked, parts of the scientific process!
If you only learned one thing about science, this would be it. This is why we should respect science. It also teaches critical thinking skills which is, well, critical for all persons living in a complex society where everything depends on science.
initially i thought crash course biology is something only n only hank could pull off but dr. sammy here is doing an amazinggg jobbb crash course is such a blessing
This absolute master drops a Jeremy Bearimy reference. This person is clearly a cultured scientific genius. Really showing off the credentials with this one, Doctor.
Sometimes I feel like the concept people struggle the most is how the scientific consensus works and how essential it is for the modern scientific method
Not taking biology in school anymore but I'm still obsessed with this series already! Dr. Sammy is AMAZING and I can't wait for the rest of the series ❤
I'm putting together a list of Crash Course videos for my kids to watch next month. In their elementary school, they don't quite learn everthing I got to when I was that young. Such as in 3rd grade, I learned about dna, rna, how to measure our weight and height, our blood pressure, heart rate, and we went to the StL Science Center for a field trip to do hands on learning. In 5th grade we learned about the scientific method. My kids elementary doesn't teach them til middle school. They learn more about animal science, such as habitats and their environmental needs to survive. I wonder if elementary schools tweak their science lessons based on where they live in the US. Like do areas that are more rural with a lot of wildlife, could that be why they focus more on habitats? I did my elementary learning in a city, not much wildlife compared to rural areas. But I can, hopefully, just get some straight answers by asking our states education department. I was curious why my oldest never got to partake in a district wide science fair in elementary school. They don't have them. 🤷♀️
5:03. That could be Italians. There's a grape focaccia called Schiaciata con l'Uva: a bread filled and covered with grapes. If you have it warm, you'll be eating warm grapes - and it is delicious!
Sitting on the floor after dropping one too many samples ::sighs:: Science is tough. The non linear scientific method constantly throws my students off. They especially seem to think that experiments always work...
Just wanted to say thank you for this video! I'm leading a small group of Cub Scouts on a STEM project and I really liked this video to explain the scientific method. The kids liked it too!
Hellooooo Crash Course!! I am here to emphaticly proclaim, that a peeled hard boiled egg will indeed explode when put in the microwave. Gotta make sure you have that observation working at full capacity!
Since Dr. Saamy is an entomoligist, it would be great if there is a crash course on entomology too. Arthropods are the most successful phylum in the world since they are the most present organisms in the world other than humans esp., beetles.
FINALLY Ive always loved the idea of crash course, but had trouble connecting with most of the hosts. Even when it's been Hank it feels wierd seeing him in that setting cos I'm more used to off the cuff silly Hank. You know what though. This guys delivery reminds me so much of the fellah who hosted crash course space. The only crash course that I've seen in completion, and it started my absolute obsession with all things to do with cosmology and beyond. If this guy can do that for biology I'm so here for it. Also PS surely it's time to do crash course space part 2 😊 bring back that same guy too!!!
*"Science"* ~ I totally jazz hands that with you 🙃 Scientific method is important ~ like the numbers of operations in math. You can figure anything out if you know where to start ~~~~~>💕°•○☆💕
There should be a warning that eggs will still explode even when the shell is off, one should never microwave eggs unless scrambled. Many people have gotten hurt by this misinformation in the past, please correct this.
I love How 2 cook that!! I wanted to get on the bandwagon. This misinformation should be changed so no one else gets hurt from the 'sploady eggs. It could really cause bad burns on your face and eyes!! Don't want someone naming Crash Course as to where they got the idea.
3:59 Speak for yourself, explosions are cool! And this one was small-scale enough to just be a bit annoying to clean up, or at worst make you get a new microwave.
Sonnet-To Science BY EDGAR ALLAN POE Science! true daughter of Old Time thou art! Who alterest all things with thy peering eyes. Why preyest thou thus upon the poet’s heart, Vulture, whose wings are dull realities? How should he love thee? or how deem thee wise, Who wouldst not leave him in his wandering To seek for treasure in the jewelled skies, Albeit he soared with an undaunted wing? Hast thou not dragged Diana from her car, And driven the Hamadryad from the wood To seek a shelter in some happier star? Hast thou not torn the Naiad from her flood, The Elfin from the green grass, and from me The summer dream beneath the tamarind tree?
Scientific analysis is sadly under threat in the modern world especially in America and much of the western world because of the false premise of free speech as a right but in actuality it’s a privilege

I don’t I think it’s a little more wibbily-wobbly then Jeremy bearimy
Needs more explanation of the dot over the i

"And occasionally there is screaming......I'm looking at you grand school" 😂😂😂
I especially appreciated that

Yeah
I really like his enthusiasm on teaching. He express exitement here and it is very nice.
As an Argentinian, I highly approve of your exaggerated Frenchy pronounciation of "Leloir"
Occasionally, peer review and scientific discourse turns into a passive-aggressive Battle Royale 🤣 seriously though, I’m loving these videos so far!
love how y'all are so good at making even the episode 2 basics super engaging!! 🖤 thanks for all y'all do!!

Love the Micro Cosmos microscope product placement! Such a well made tool.
and the cameo from Crash Course Computing too!

Thanks!
This is so good! I can't wait for more :) I recently got really into entomology and Dr. Sammy might be my new hero.
Hey, guys this was fun to learn!:D
Thank you 😊 💓

He is the quirkiest presenter whom I have seen at CrashCourse....
AndI love it....

Outstanding Course Presenter! I love this new series.
As always, fun to watch. Thank you Crash Course team!
I’m a teacher and I love this 😭 keep up the awesome work!!
Great job Dr. Sammy. I really enjoyed this vid. Keep up the great work!👌👌
Love the history aspect.
Awesome. Really got me going at the end there with the mention of philosophy and different methods of "knowing".
Science may be able to say if we can clone a mammoth, but can it tell me how delicious a mammoth burger would be?
Lovely information! Thank you 😊
I am from UZBEKISTAN🎉
I am preparing IELTS exam😊
Okay the modeling halfway through was cute and hilarious. Look'n good, Doctor.
😤It took me a while to get over the watermelon slander… I had to pause and seriously consider continuing…
Love Crash Course!
Thank you
❤
Love seeing a smart educated brother ✊👍
... does cut grass smell like watermelon? I've never noticed that before.
Not to me it doesn't but then fresh cut grass makes my sinus hurt lol
2:12 the same thing Canadians are doing now, but with receding ice shelfs and friggin FIRE!
Well done . Thank you .
Thanks for a very good explanation of how science is donde socially. This also applies in part to other sciences like the social sciences.
Loving the Jeremy Bearimy ref

Can confirm - I was lucky I didn't get badly when my out-of-the-shell egg exploded on me. @howtocookthat has a really comprehensive video about it.
I love How 2 cook that!! I wanted to get on the bandwagon. This misinformation should be changed so no one else gets hurt from the 'sploady eggs. It could really cause bad burns on your face and eyes!! Don't want someone naming Crash Course as to where they got the idea.
I love the videos. Wish I had this before I was near the end of my biochem degree 😂
I love this series hosted by Dr Sammy! I am moved by your passion. Looking forward to the next one❤

Mi pais mi pais 🇦🇷💕
I love your video as well my stibu for my school, and exam as well
I'm getting a purple rain vibe from this
I love that shirt!
Doc, you're the best
I was one time working as a referee for a roller derby game when a banana peel appeared on the track. None slipped on it and spun out though.
Jurassic Park was a good answer, but I'm not sure people universally understand that the answer was no.
You should do an episode of how the German Nicolas of Cusa contributed to the scientific method during the Italian Renaissance.
Which watermelons does cut grass smell like? Like the ones you regretted buying? 😂
1&3 awesome
Yes, you've seen the Time Knife. All scientists have seen the Time Knife.
The same kind of person that likes to warm up grapes are the same kind that like Avocado toast.
Where is episode 3 please?
Today I learned that placing a hard boiled egg in a microwave makes it explode, thanks.
3:59 Speak for yourself, explosions are cool! And this one was small-scale enough to just be a bit annoying to clean up, or at worst make you get a new microwave.
you guys forgot the scientific method during covid!
Peer review is like democracy; it's not the best system, it is however the least worst.
Nah both are kinda trash.
The only thing that matters is that the theories can accurately predict experiments. Not whether it passed peer review
The pride bee 🐝 is a cool t shirt 👕
Me about to start grad school after watching minute 5:14 of the video👁️👄👁️
I have slipped one a banana peel and nearly cracked my skull open only once in my life.
I love it

Hey! Jeremy Bearimy!
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Is that a Journey to the Microcosmos microscope?
What is the difference in a Scientific Law and a Scientific Dogma? I'm having a hard time understanding the difference between these.
Comment for the algorithm!
💙
so science is like jeremy beramy?
Since when does cut grass smell like watermelon? I'm a watermelon farmer, and I cut grass too.
Hahaha, the Good Place ref 4:10
✨🥚
What kind of grass smells like watermelon when cut?!?! Do Americans have different grass than everyone else?
It’s less like a straight line and more Jeremy Bearimy
Shoulda used it during the pandemic 🤔
e(t)=e(1)
An entomologist is much better than an etymologist 🤔.
Bro he is too funny xDDDD
Science but make it fashion
O I am there's for class
Hmm... I've never thought that cut grass smells like watermelon...
I’m subscribing my kids to you
😊😊😊😊🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌹
i've put a hard-boiled egg in the microwave before :( not pretty! needless to say i didn't do well in bio in high school lol
