Pretest: Scientific Method The scientific method was developed to help scientists organize the process of solving problems True or False?

Pretest: Scientific Method Which of the following is not a step in the scientific method? Hypothesis Experiment Conclusion Inference

Pretest: Scientific Method Which of these words would you not associate with the scientific method? Disorganized Organized Data Control

Pretest: Scientific Method A hypothesis is ….. A random thought An answer to a question An educated guess An experiment

Pretest: Scientific Method Which of these would be called results?? Number of fruit flies Counting fruit flies Seeing fruit flies on an apple Wondering why a fruit fly was born

Pretest: Scientific Method What do you do to test a hypothesis?? Guess at the outcome Create a spreadsheet with data Publish a scientific paper Design an experiment

WHAT IS A HYPOTHESIS? AN EXPLANATION TO A PROBLEM THAT CAN BE TESTED AND IS FALSIFIABLE. It is a PREDICTION It is only useful if it can be tested.

Leak-Proof Bag Experiment

1. Ask a Question

2. Write a Hypothesis

4. Test Your Hypothesis by Doing an Experiment

5. Analyze Your Data

6. Come to a Conclusion http://www.stevespanglerscience.com/lab/experiments/leak-proof-bag

Present Results

What is a THEORY When enough data supports a hypothesis, it becomes a theory. Data is SUCCESSFULLY repeated many times. It can be changed or replaced.

What is a LAW in science? A description of observations. I.E. The Law of Orbit

Lets Look Back to our PRETEST
