Scientific Inquiry Unit 1

What steps do you go through while completing an experiment?

MAIN steps to the scientific process Question/Problem Hypothesis Test/Experimentation Observe/Gather data Analyze your data Conclusion Communicate your findings

Scientific variables Independent Variable: Dependent Variable: Control Variable Constants

Why is it important to undergo multiple trials when doing an experiment?

Why is it important to undergo multiple trials when doing an experiment? For the most accurate and reliable result (Validity)

Practice Problems Pack

Scientific Theory vs Law Theory: a well supported idea with enough evidence to be WIDLEY accepted as true. New evidence could potentially disprove theories Exs: Big Bang Theory, Theory of Relativity Law: 100% proven scientific idea. It cannot be disproven Exs: Laws of Gravity, Newton's laws of motion

Observations vs Inferences Observation: Using your senses to gather information that is FACT Inference: Using your observations to make a guess. Not Fact

Observations vs Inferences Practice

Tools/ Measurement What tools measure the following….What units are typically used? Mass? Volume? Distance? Force?
