Can you figure out the puzzle? Each piece of the puzzle = a piece of scientific data

Incorporate the new piece of data into your puzzle! New data! Incorporate the new piece of data into your puzzle!

SO, what is science? Page 10 - ISN What is Science? 8/29/16 What is Science? A possible definition: Mine: Class: Group: Science SO, what is science?

A possible Definition of Science is… The knowledge about the natural world that is based on facts learned through experiments and observation.

Theory vs Law Theory Law Explains why something happens Based on YEARS of testing and observation Describes what happens under certain conditions. (A rule of nature) Based on observations!

observations Quantitative (QN) Qualitative (QL) Data based on MEASUREMENTS Uses #s Measurements include a # AND unit Data based on a QUALITY Use your senses (touch, taste, hear, smell, see)

inferences Possible reason for the result that is based on observation. Explain a problem and/or situation from reverse.

Independent Variable (IV) Dependent Variable (DV) Variables Independent Variable (IV) Dependent Variable (DV) I change on purpose. Cause of the experiment Data from the experiment. Effect of the experiment Control Variables (CV) All the other variables that remain the same. Prevents bias. Allows for a FAIR test!
