Well the textbooks ... still teach "the scientific method" which has been
thoroughly discredited. See the latest issue of Jour of Res of Sci. Teaching.
I looked at the bio. text at our school and it said that hypothesis after
being accepted and verified many times turn into theories. I am afraid
that the old saw about theories turning into laws has not been completely
put to rest, and it now comes back in a slightly altered form. ... The
review of physics texts by fairly conservative authors in TPT even called
the sections on "the scientific method" anathema.
