Presentation transcript:

Welcome Back! Same seats as yesterday Turn in your signed syllabus or code of conduct, (due Friday) Get out your notes from yesterday to finish Start thinking about the QOD – What qualifies as science?

First… Let’s finish your notes from yesterday (and please make sure I take attendance!)

Bell Work In the first section of your notebook, copy the following question and write the answer. “Name three times you would ‘do science’ in your daily life.”

What qualifies as Science?

Science is… A method of solving a problem or investigating a phenomenon.

Sci Method Review Bart Simpson believes that mice exposed to microwaves will become extra strong. He decides to perform this experiment by placing 10 mice in a microwave for 10 seconds. He compared these 10 mice to another 10 mice that had not been exposed. His test consisted of a heavy block of wood that blocked the mouse food. He found that 8 out of 10 of the microwaved mice were able to push the block away. 7 out of 10 of the non-microwaved mice were able to do the same.

Building your Lab Report Problem/Question: Why are you doing the experiment?

Building your Lab Report Hypothesis: Make an educated prediction about the outcome using “If ___, then ___, because ___.” Example: If I put fresh batteries in the remote then it will work because batteries must be replaced regularly.

Building your Lab Report Procedure: Describe what is done in the experiment in five sentences or less.

Building your Lab Report Independent Variable: What are YOU changing or testing? Dependent Variable: What will happen because of the IV change? OR What will you measure?

Building your Lab Report Control: What will you compare to in order to see the results? (Note: Not always used) Constant: What will you need to keep the same?

Building your Lab Report Results: What happened in the experiment? Quantitative (Numbers) Data: measurements, counts, etc. Qualitative (Qualities) Data: color, texture, etc.

Building your Lab Report Conclusion: Evaluate your hypothesis based on the data. Suggest what type of experiment to do next.
