Perimeter Institute: How Do Scientists Think?

Science has been a powerful force in society. What is so special about the way scientists think? What are the key habits of mind that scientists practice that enable them to make discoveries? Come explore the Process of Science, a classroom resource developed by educators in collaboration with Perimeter Institute researchers to introduce students to the creative and powerful process of science. Engage in activities that will encourage students to think and act like scientists. Each participant will receive a complimentary copy of the Process of Science classroom resource kit.
