Extra
___________ means that if another scientist uses your
procedure they would come up with similar results.
Reliability
How many types of experiments have we talk about in grade 6. Give an number
3
The study of the principles and use of computers.
Computer Science
What is the first part of the scientific Method?
The Question
Items in an experiment which either are changed, kept the same, and observed are called?
Variables
a place where students your age can present their science experiment
Science Fair
These are experiments that you most likely connect to science. . This is a highly controlled experiment, where everything should be done with a lot of planning and a specific purpose.
Lab experiment
The study of the physical constitution of the earth and its atmosphere.
Earth Science
a list of all items used
Materials
How many types of variables have we learned about in a Scientific Method. Give a number.
3
Magazines with articles written about things scientists have learned through the scientific method.
Journals
These are experiments done in a more regular environment. Scientist still have lots of control, but not over everything.
Field Experiments
The study of the substances of which matter is composed; the investigation of their properties and the ways in which they interact, combine, and change; and the use of these processes to form new substances.
Chemistry
The steps you have to follow to do the experiment
procedure
Also known as an independent variable, is a part of an experiment that you can change to see how other variables respond (The material you are changing in the experiment in order to test your hypothesis)
manipulated variable
The idea that the answer you get actually reflects the question you are asking in a Science experiment
Validity
These are experiments often called observational research. Scientists go where they want to learn something and observe. They have no control over the different variables. They are just there to observe and learn.
Natural experiment
The study of living organisms, divided into many specialized fields that cover their morphology, physiology, anatomy, behavior, origin, and distribution.
Biology
When you watch to see what happen in an experiment and make notes.
Observation
Also known as the dependent variable it is the result that occurs during your experiment. How did your manipulated variable respond?
Responding variable
peer reviewed,
When other scientist who have studied similar topics have double-checked the research to make sure it is done well.
Peer Review
You make observations during NBA games and record players statistics while they play, as well as, take statistics from other people you trust. You make observations until you feel you have collected enough information. What type of experiment am I?
Natural experiment
The study of physical properties including mechanics, heat, light and other radiation, sound, electricity, magnetism, and the structure of atoms.
Physics
An educated guess
hypothesis
The variables that in your test that need to stay the same to keep your test fair. (Everything else in your test that needs to stay the same to keep your test fair)
Controlled Variables
