Presentation transcript:

Scientific Method Identify a problem What do you want to know? What question do you want to answer? What problem do you want to solve? An OBSERVATION leads to a QUESTION

Scientific Method Make observations: gather observed information Research previous knowledge Collect data: gather quantitative information Form an EDUCATED explanation/answer Hypothesis

Scientific Method Conduct an Experiment Control “OTHER” variables Must be able to duplicate Develop a way to TEST your hypothesis Dependant versus independent variables Generate DATA

Scientific Method Conclusion Was your hypothesis correct? Was your hypothesis incorrect? Correct what went wrong Rerun experiment with corrections Interpret the DATA collected

Scientific Method Theory Hypothesis that has been tested many times by many people over time with the same results Can NEVER be proved CAN be disproved LAW = WHAT happens THEORY = WHY it happens

DATA collection and DATA analysis
