Jessica and others,
This research methods course should have some relevant materials:
https://online225.psych.wisc.edu/
By the way, I think the way that she designed this course without tests is interesting and innovative.
Best wishes,

Subject: Looking for
Hi All,
I’m hoping that someone has a lead on OER content for an introductory survey course in science (SCIE 2240: Science Past, Present, and Future). The outcomes are broad and include:
· Describe the steps in the scientific method
· Describe a series of experiments from the history of science that illustrate the elements of scientific method.
· Define accuracy, precision, systematic error, and random error as they apply to measurements.
· Employ appropriate units for physical measurements.
· Define a hypothesis test and identify its components.
· Make a conclusion from a formal hypothesis test based on sample data.
· Create a written group report on a modern scientific result and the consequences to the prevailing scientific theory or model.
· Discuss current trends in science.
(This is not an exhaustive list)
I have checked OpenStax, Open Textbook Library, OER Commons, BCcampus, Cool4Ed.org, OASIS, and Mason OER Metafinder. I have found a chapter here or there which might be re-written to fit these outcomes. However, I would love to find 2-3 books (possible topics: history of science, scientific method and research techniques, and current/future trends in science) that would cover these topics more comprehensively.
I certainly do not expect to find all of this in one place. Any leads would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Jessica
