Step 4: Perform the Experiment to answer the question
Step 6: Write/Draw Conclusions from the lab
Ignore the evidence (experimental data) and write what I think the correct answer is
Identify the dependent variable for: "How is the visibility of the dye effected by the amount of dye?"
Scientific Method
Step 2B: Do Research on the question OR concepts surrounding the question
My opinions on what I think the answer is
Identify the independent variable for: "How is the visibility of the dye effected by the amount of dye?"
Step 3: Make a Hypothesis on the question
Data or observations only from an experiment or the environment
Scientific Evidence
I write a final claim based on the evidence anyway
Step 5: Analyze the Results from the lab
Step 2A: Ask a Question that can be answered with an experiment
Identify the controlled variable for: "How is the visibility of the dye effected by the amount of dye?"
Step 1: Make observations about the natural world
Scientific Questions
Evidence for a conclusion (claim) comes from...
Visibility of the cell
Stepwise process used to answer a question through experimentation
These are observations, numbers, data, etc. gathered during a lab/experiment
If I think my data from the experiment is wrong then...
If I think my data from the experiment is wrong then I NEVER
Factual questions that are answered without feeling or opinions
Evidence for a conclusion (claim) NEVER comes from...
Amount of dye
Type of cell
