Instructions for EDP PowerPoint Presentation
This PowerPoint can be used as both your guide for preparing your presentation AND your visual aid during your presentation. The blue slides do not appear in Slideshow mode, and suggest the content and order for the white slides. Do not type on the blue slides, and change the white slides to the design/color theme of your choice. Feel free to add additional slides if needed, keeping in mind that your presentation should last approximately 8 minutes. Be careful not to have long transitions between slides.

Instructions for EDP PowerPoint Presentation
Each slide you create will act as a visual aid for your audience as they listen to what you say. There should be key words, pictures, and diagrams on most slides, but no long sentences and paragraphs. Before creating your slide, use the notes portion (below) to write out what you plan to say. This helps determine what would be best to put on your slide. In the end, you need to know your project so well that you can talk to the class about it, not just read it out loud.

Scientific Field Describe a field of science that is related to your experiment, including example jobs
6
Scientific Field Field of science: Anatomy (a biological science field) Example Jobs: Physical Therapist Education Necessary: Bachelor’s Degree and Doctor of Physical Therapy Earnings: $57,053 to $92,926 Responsibilities: Manual therapy Retraining Diagnostics The field of science that my project was under was anatomy. Which is the branch of science concerned with the bodily structure of humans, animals, and organisms. Because anatomy a type of science that is related around living organisms, it is a biological science. Almost all of medicine relates, in some way, to anatomy, so there are a lot of jobs that coincide with anatomy. One job, is a physical therapist. Physical therapists are health care professionals who can help patients reduce pain and improve or restore mobility – in many cases without expensive surgery
7
Scientific Field Introduce a scientist working in this field. Give a brief biography including his or her noteworthy accomplishments and experiments.
8
Scientific Field Scientist: Andreas Vesalius Accomplishments/Facts:
First ever book on anatomy The first anatomy professor Physician to the Roman emperor One famous scientist that have worked in this field was Andreas Vesalius.
9
Current Event Describe current research and/or discoveries in your scientific field? Describe how your current event links to the experiment you completed, and why you designed your particular experiment. State the relevance to your field, to society, to science, and/or to the planet. Do additional background research as necessary. Include related pictures/graphics

11
Introduction of Experiment
Write your original scientific question. Write your hypothesis/prediction. Emphasize how reasoning, based on research, backs up your prediction Have your entire question and hypothesis on this slide. Talk about your reasoning, not have audience read it while you talk.
12
Introduction of Experiment
Question: What is the effect of temperature on hamstring flexibility? Hypothesis: If the temperature is increased, then hamstring flexibility will increase, because the tendons will gain elasticity and will be able to move more.
13
(Bullet Points ONLY, no complete sentences)
Materials List Include all items needed to conduct your experiment. Include quantities of any items needed. Quantities need to be in metric units. Pictures of specific materials can be helpful for people who may be unfamiliar. (Bullet Points ONLY, no complete sentences) When you present this you will just touch on key materials, but don’t read all of them to us. Pictures can be used to supplement the list.
14
Materials List 1 protractor 1 camera 1 printer 15 people 1 thermometer
3 rooms at different temperatures 1 ruler 1 computer or laptop 1 timer 1 meter stick 1 adjustable tripod
15
Variables Show your manipulated variable and the 3 or more values
Show your responding variable and how it is measured Type a list and talk about why the things you listed under control were important to keep constant.
16
Variables Manipulated Variable: Temperature Responding Variable: Hamstring Flexibility (how high the leg will go)
17
Procedure Numbered steps using key phrases only
Diagrams and/or video clips are helpful, photographs of yourself with materials are required Organize to show the logical steps of your experiment, as concisely as possible. Remember, we are already familiar with your manipulated and responding variable.
18
Procedure Close all doors in a room so the temperature does not change
Place a thermometer on a flat surface in the room Have the person stand in the center of the room for two minutes to get accustomed to the temperature Measure the person’s height using a meter stick
19
Procedure Continued 5. Adjust the tripod so the camera is one half the person’s height 6. Without lifting their hips or bending their knees have the person lift their right leg as high as they can 7. Take a photo of their position 8. Again, without lifting their hips or bending their knees, have the person lift their left leg as high as they can
20
Procedure Continued 9. Take a picture of their new position 10. Print out the photos from steps 5 and Using a ruler, draw a straight line down each of their legs in the photo. The lines should form one angle per photo 12. Measure the two angles using a protractor 13. Record the degrees of the angles in the two photos
21
Procedure Continued 14. Re-measure the temperature of the room to make sure it has no changed, if it has, open the door to let some of the outside air in until the temperature is the same as it was before 15. Repeat steps 3-12 two more times for a total of three trials 16. Repeat steps 1-13 in a room with two different temperatures 17. Repeat steps 1-14 using fourteen other people
22
(Bullet Points ONLY, no complete sentences)
Variables Explain variables (3 or more) that you needed to control, why they needed to be controlled, and how you controlled them. This is a good place to share how your design changed once you started trying things out, or interesting challenges you faced. (Bullet Points ONLY, no complete sentences)
23
Controlled Variable 1 Time for the person to adjust to the temperature: 2 minutes Allows people to become accustomed
24
Photos taken from the same proportional height to the person’s height:
Controlled Variable 2 Photos taken from the same proportional height to the person’s height: ½ the height Adjustable tripod
25
Manner in which they lift their leg
Controlled Variable 3 Manner in which they lift their leg No bending knees Hips level No pitching forward
26
Data Table Show data in at least one well-designed table.
Additional tables or lists are encouraged for including both qualitative and quantitative data and observations. Metric units only. Only your data should be on this page. Don’t read us your numbers. Point out any oddities in your data that might have thrown off your averages or briefly explain how everything looks the way it should.
27
Data Table
28
Results & Graph Display your relevant data in a graph(s) and use it to point out trends, surprises, results.
29
Results & Graph Should be linear
As temperature increases, so does hamstring flexibility
30
(Bullet Points ONLY, no complete sentences)
Conclusion Summarize your findings by directly answering your original question, and stating whether your hypothesis was supported or not. Scientific reason, based on research, which could explain your results (Bullet Points ONLY, no complete sentences) This is the most important part of your presentation. It should be clear and to the point. Avoid using the words I was wrong, or I was right. Always refer back to your original hypothesis. ClEvR should be used as a guide, but we only want to see a brief summary here.
31
Conclusion Hypothesis was supported
When temperature increases, so does hamstring flexibility When the temperature was 10 degrees, flexibility was 56 degrees When the temperature was 21 degrees, flexibility was 68 degrees Allowed tendons to release and be able to stretch more
32
Conclusion (continued)
Describe possible weakness or error in your experimental design which may have affected your results Describe what the results made you wonder or think about, and propose a follow up experiment to address that.
33
Conclusion (continued)
Problems: Dancers vs. Regular People Different types of people New Questions: How does age affect hamstring flexibility? How does diet/exercise affect hamstring flexibility? How does the time of day affect hamstring flexibility?
34
Bibliography Use any online citation creator to format MLA citations (at least 3). Copy and paste them here. Additionally, pictures require source citations as well if not your own. Give credit where credit is due. Be sure to include ALL resources used, even if it was just to double check data. Include your current events citation as well.
