This is the first step of the scientific method.
What is a testable question?
What is done to fill in unknown information prior to forming a hypothesis
What is background research?
Things in your experiment that you can change or measure.
What are variables?
What are graphs?
a process for experimentation that is used to explore observations and answer questions.
What is the scientific method?
These two variables need to be included in a hypothesis
What is the independent variable (IV) and dependent variable (DV)?
Results
What is data?
The variable that never changes.
What is a constant variable?
The purpose of data is
What is to support or refute the hypothesis, and to provide information pertaining to the interactions of the variables?
An educated guess based off of your background research.
What is an hypothesis?
Mistakes made by humans during an experiment.
What is experimental human error?
Materials and Procedures are found in this step
What is the experimentation step?
The variable that is changed by the experimenter.
What is an independent variable?
Data that contains numbers
What is quantitative data?
Wikipedia is not one of them, however textbooks and journal articles are.
What are reliable resources?
A place to record your experimental data.
What is a data table?
This step uses the following template. "According to my data...This is proved by...Therefore..."
What is the writing of the conclusions?
"How does wing shape affect the distance a plane goes?" In this example the distance the plane goes is...?
What is a dependent variable?
Data retrieved through observations
What is qualitative data?
This group is used as a comparison because nothing out of the ordinary is done with this group
What is the control group?
This sums up your entire investigation.
What is a scientific conclusion?
If...then...because.... statements are used during this step.
What is the forming of a hypothesis?
How does temperature affect the growth of mold?
In this investigation temperature is which variable?
What is the independent variable?
These can be made using data as a support
What are conclusions?
What are the conclusions?
