I do not know if it is what you want but I use "How do scientists really do science" a presentation by L. Woolf available at: http://www.sci-ed-ga.org/GASEFPresentations.html
There are also some some items on Scientific Method on Donald Simanek's site including one by Percy Bridgman at http://www.lhup.edu/~dsimanek/bridgman.htm

Subject: [Phys-l] Scientific Method
I am helping to rewrite the manual for our county science fair. The
section on scientific method is the typical 7 steps of trying to "prove or disprove"
your hypothesis. I volunteered to rewrite this section and do not want to
start from scratch. Does anybody have or know of a good treatment of good
scientific experimentation that I can paraphrase?
Thanks in advance,
M. Horton
