The Nature Of Science Schoonover

Gather more information to see if your answer is correct. If possible, perform experiments. Data are observations and measurements. Write down data from the experiments. What does the data mean? To help you find out, organize the data into charts and graphs. Decide if your data supports your hypothesis. Repeat the experiment to check your data. Identify new questions. What do you really want to know? Write it down. Find out what you can. Make observations. Do library research. Check the internet. Use your observations and knowledge to suggest a hypothesis. The Scientific Method Use the following phrases to label the oval to match the definition. Analyze Data Form a Hypothesis Make Conclusions Identify the Question Record Data Gather Information Test the hypothesis

PHEOC Problem Hypothesis Experiment Observation Conclusion

Control: normal conditions Constant: things held the same in each trial Variable:  Independent: I change, modify (MIX)  Dependent: Data I collect (DRY)  Quantitative: quantity, how much, numbers  Qualitative: quality, how good, describing words Observation: fact, collected with senses Inference: guess, idea created by collecting facts Hypothesis vs. theory vs. law……
