Process
review
100
The human activity which involves the act or process of providing all members of a society with knowledge, skills, competencies, and socially desirable qualities of behavior.
Education
100
the process of science of making quantitative observations using appropriate measuring instruments and appropriate standardized units
measuring
100
That type of the measurement that uses a PARTICULAR TOOL to compare a particular property of an object to a given standard
PAM
100
the product of the process in which a physical property of an object is compared to a given standard.
Measuring
100
that type of measurement that uses a FORMULA to calculate the measure of a particular property
SAM
200
a process that results in a relatively permanent change in behavior that can be measured and occurs as a result of reinforced practice.
Learning
200
WORD or WORDS that describe what are of the measurement that we are making the measurement
Descriptive Unit
200
a DEVICE that has a standard or set of standards that are incremented upon in so that comparisons can be made.
measuring tool
200
A DIGIT or DIGITS that describe some physical property in terms of the number of increments on the measuring tool
Numeric Vaule
200
Observations that describe an object's properties that are NOT measured values
Qualitative Observation(s)
300
the discipline that uses the processes of observing, hypothesizing, and experimenting to identify the causes of events in nature.
Science
300
the process of stating and applying mathematical rules or formulas to compute quantities from basic measurements like area, volume, and averages
calculating
300
observations made during an experiment that produce MEASURED VALUES that describe property of an object
Quantitative Observation(s)
300
the branch of science that studies the structure and composition of substances and the changes in composition in which these substances undergo (electrons and their interactions)
Chemistry
300
the type of lab experience that provides student to make first hand observational
Observational
400
the type of lab that involves an independent variable and testing a hypothesis and designated to pinpoint a cause-and-effect relationship
Experimental Lab
400
the process of science by which our curiosity drives us into asking WHY a particular even occur
Questioning
400
scientific discipline that studies life
biology
400
the process of science by which we use our five senses in order to collect information about an event or phenomena
observing
400
the process of science that involves identifying characteristics that are constant or change under different conditions
recognizing variables
500
the process of constructing and using written reports, drawings, diagrams, graphs, or charts, to transmit information learned from science experiences
communicating
500
the process of science in which we test the limits of a hypothesis
experimenting
500
the variable in an experiment that is changed due to the changing, altering or manipulating of another variable.
Independent Variable
500
the variable in an experiment that is changed, altered, manipulated to determine its effect on the outcome of an experiment.
Dependent variable
500
the process of science that involves organizing and stating his/her own words information derived from a science investigation
interpreting data
