Extracted text: As a scientist, it is an important skill to be able to classify and communicate knowledge, have an understanding of specialized methods of research and to objectively analyze observations obtained during scientific investigation. Clearly technology has had a major role in scientific advancement and the two fields will continue to influence each other in the future. The Scientific Method that scientists use is not a presubscribed series of steps one must follow during experimentation. Rather, it is merely a guide of important aspects that are useful in the acquisition of empirical knowledge. A clear distinction between observation and interpretation of data can be made. It is imperative that a scientist ensures that they are objectively recording and analyzing data in experimentation; excluding all bias and preconceived ideas from their work. Furthermore, it is important that scientists collaborate and check each other's research for the advancement of scientific knowledge and the greater good of humanity.
