6 Science is a Search for Knowledge https://www.youtube.com/watch?v =zrzMhU_4m-g

7 1. Observations. Make Observations using your 5 senses. Steps of the Scientific Method 2. Research question. Observations make us ask testable questions about what we experience. Which senses are missing?

8 Testable Questions have A manipulated variable (Independent variable) A responding variable (Dependent variable)

9 Testable Question Formats Does changing _______ affect _______? How does changing _____ affect _____? If I change ______ will it affect ______? What is the effect of ______ on _______? manipulated variable manipulated variable manipulated variable responding variable responding variable responding variable manipulated variable responding variable

10 Is this question testable? Which brand of shoe makes you run faster Nike or New Balance? How can we make it testable? What is the independent variable? What is the dependent variable? What is the new testable question?

11 Change the following into testable questions 1.What affects plant growth? 2.What makes dishes clean? 3.Can water boiling time be changed? 4.Does carbon dioxide in the atmosphere cause the atmosphere to warm? 5.Is achievement in school higher when students are tested frequently?

12 First Five 9/16 1.Turn the following non-testable question into a testable question. How does a paper airplane fly? 2. Take out sunsets, souls, and senses. 3. Collect work from center of room. Schedule 1.First Five 2.Continue Scientific Method Notes 3. Finish Testable questions/hypothesis GQ: How do I determine the significant parts of the scientific method? HW: Lab Notebook - Monday Variable Practice wkst – Due Fri

13 3. Hypothesis A hypothesis is a possible explanation that is based on observation and seeks to answer the question. Write it as an “If…(I do this) then…(this is what I think will happen)” statement. Must include both the independent and dependent variables.

14 3. Hypothesis Ex: “If the gene for glowing is inserted into a plant, then the plant will produce the glowing trait.”

15 Create Hypotheses for the following Does changing the type of liquid affect how quickly a nail will corrode (rust)? Does the brand of detergent affect how thoroughly it gets a grass stain out? How does the type of light affect how quickly a plant will grow? Does surface temperature of a glass affect fingerprints? Do artificial sugars attract ants?

16 First Five 9/17 1.Write a hypothesis for the following question. What is the effect of pH on the lifespan of tadpoles? 2. Pick up work from middle of room. Schedule 1.First Five 2.Practice Procedure writing 3.Set up Radish Lab GQ: How do I determine the significant parts of the scientific method? HW: 1. Lab Notebook - Monday 2. Variable Practice wkst – Due Tomorrow 3. Read pages 1-17 and answer Critical Thinking Questions at the end of each section – due Monday 4. Safety Quiz Corrections – due tomorrow

17 4. Experiment Definition = A controlled test of a hypothesis is called an experiment. A valid experiment needs: 1. Independent variable 2. Dependent variable 3. Control group 4. Easy to follow Procedure

18 Independent Variable What happens when a fire fly gene (the independent variable) is added to tobacco plant genes?

19 Controlled Experiment One test group (the control group) is not exposed to the tested effect (gene for glowing). One test group (independent variable) is exposed to the tested effect (gene for glowing).

20 The Control Group Keep an identical control group for comparison. This plant did not receive the fire fly gene. It’s a control.

21 First Five 9/18 1.What is the independent and dependent variables for your radish lab? 2. Turn in Variable practice and safety corrections to box. 3. Pick up work from middle of room. Schedule 1.First Five 2.Set up Radish Lab GQ: How do I set up a valid experiment? HW: 1. Lab Notebook - Monday 2. Variable Practice wkst – Due Today 3. Read pages 1-17 and answer Critical Thinking Questions at the end of each section – due Monday 4. Safety Quiz Corrections – due today

23 First Five 9/22 1.If you were to graph this table what axis would pH and # of tadpoles go? 2.Take out your Radish Lab and collect measurements for today. Schedule 1.First Five 2.Prelab practice GQ: How do I design a valid experiment? HW: 1.Lab Notebook – Tomorrow 2. Tutor Sessions Wednesday 3. Observation Article – Due Thursday

24 First Five 9/25 1.What happened in your radish seed experiment? Schedule 1.First Five 2.Radish Lab Finish 3.Grub Lab GQ: How do I design and run an experiment? HW: 1.Radish Lab – Due Tuesday 2.Grub Lab – Due Fri 10/2 3.SciMeth and Char of Life Test – Fri 10/2

25 5. Results The observations or measurements in the experiment depend on the independent variable and are called the dependent variable. The dependent variable here is whether the resulting plants will glow or not. It depends on the gene (independent variable).

26 5. Results The dependent variable measured during the experiment becomes data. Data is evidence to support the hypothesis. Data must be observable or measurable in someway. Data cannot be an opinion or emotion.

27 Data Look at data for patterns and trends. Data is put into graphs and charts to make patterns more visible. Only data is used to support your conclusions!

28 First Five 9/16 1.What are the three things that must be included in a conclusion? Schedule 1.First Five 2.Conclusion Activity 3.Conclusion Notes GQ: How do I determine the significant parts of the scientific method? HW: 1.Lab Notebook – Wednesday 2.IV and DV Study session Today and Tomorrow from 2:10 – 3:00

29 6. Conclusions Conclusions are only valid if data supports them. Reject the hypothesis if the data does not support the hypothesis. Data supports or not; it does NOT prove anything.

30 Conclusions cont’... Error Analysis is part of an experiment. List only KNOWN errors in the measurements. DO NOT list your guesses (e.g. “We might have....).
