Identifying Truth or Fiction

Carefully define the terms 'science' and 'pseudoscience'. Thoroughly explain the difference between them and provide your references. Make sure to distinguish 'pseudo-science' from just plain falsehoods or fairytales. Also, give at least one example of what counts as science, and of what counts as pseudoscience. (Use additional examples you'll find in your research; please do not discuss astronomy or astrology.) Explain how you can tell the difference between the two. How do we know when a claim counts a pseudoscience? How can you tell that a claim is truly a scientific claim? Are there any pseudo-scientific claims that you hold? If yes, why is it? Determine at least two (2) ways in which the material discussed this week has changed your own thinking.
