3. The Scientific Method

4. The Scientific Method The scientific method is the only scientific
way accepted to back up a theory or
idea. This is the method on which all
research projects should be based. The
Scientific Method is used by researchers
to support or disprove a theory.

5. The Scientific Method The Scientific Method involves 5 steps:
Observation
Question
Hypothesis
Method
Result

6. The Scientific Method Observation- You observe something
in the material world, using your senses
or machines which are basically
extensions of those senses.
AH—Look at this!

7. The Scientific Method Question- You ask a question
about what you observe.
State the problem or question.

8. The Scientific Method Hypothesis- You predict what
you think the answer to
your question might be

9. The Scientific Method Method - You figure out a way to test whether
hypothesis is correct. The outcome must be
measureable. (quantifiable)
Record and analyze data.

10. The Scientific Method Result- You do the experiment using
the method you came up with and
record the results. You repeat the
experiment to confirm your
results by retesting. .

11. The Scientific Method State Conclusion- You state whether
your prediction was confirmed or not
and try to explain your results.

12. The Scientific Method Test you knowledge by
visiting the Scientific Scenarios
and see if you can identify
the steps of the scientific
method.
