wouldn’t have come to be known in 1791. Even though he did not identify the importance of the two metals, the observations he made eventually led to other discoveries like circuitry. Slowiczek and Peters wrote, “to have meaning, every observation or discovery must fit into a pre-existing pattern of ideas in the observer’s mind.

then move forward to the observation and experiment when we adequate reasons to a problem. Step 2. Observation and Experiment Observation and Experiment can involve both natural and laboratory behaviors and environment. Testing a hypothesis (problem) in different variables and changes will show or measure negative or positive results. In this process we can determine what tools or environment are being used and if they are affecting the problem. The observation may take time by verifying

as the basis of that understanding1. It is done through observation of natural phenomena, and/or through experimentation that tries to simulate natural processes under controlled conditions. (There are, of course, more definitions of science.) Consider some examples. An ecologist observing the territorial behaviors of bluebirds and a geologist examining the distribution of fossils in an outcrop are both scientists making observations in order to find patterns in natural phenomena. They just

will improve the U.S. economy from 2008 to 2012. To make my research paper become more effective and reliable, a qualitative primary research should be proposed in my study. There are some ideas that I could do for my study. For example, I can do observation; I can observe the consumption of Chinese people in a specific Chinese store. By observing it, I can discover the size of their consumption and then compare to the secondary research, see how it affects the specific market like import and export
