Knowledge alone does not make a scientist:
When people talk about problems with science education, they are generally are talking about science as a body of knowledge. If you know certain facts from within that body of knowledge, you know science. There is another definition of science though, and it is antithetical to the body-of-knowledge definition. For lack of a better word, I’m going to call it testing and discovery. … Body-of-knowledge science is about building assumptions. Testing and discovery is about breaking them. These are two different attitudes, and therefore must be kept separate. Otherwise, testing and discovery will be swallowed up by “science” as just more facts to memorize.
