3 SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY A PROCESS USED BY SCIENTISTS TO STUDY THE NATURAL WORLD. SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY OFTEN BEGINS WITH A PROBLEM ABOUT AN OBSERVATION.

4 POSING OUESTIONS QUESTIONS COME FROM EXPERIENCES, OBSERVATIONS, AND INFERENCES YOU MAKE AND HAD. SCIENTIFIC QUESTIONS ARE QUESTIONS THAT CAN BE ANSWERED BY MAKING AN OBSERVATIONS AND GATHERING EVIDENCE. QUESTIONS ADOUT PERSONAL OPINIONS ARE NOT SCIENTIFIC QUESTIONS.

5 DEVELOPING A HYPOTHESIS A HYPOTHESIS IS A POSSIBLE EXPLANATION OR ANSWER TO A SCIENTIFIC QUESTION. A HYPOTHESIS IS A POSSIBLE EXPLANATION. IT CAN BE PROVED OR DISPROVED WITH AN INVESTIGATION.

6 DESIGNING AN EXPERIMENT BEFORE YOU START TO DESIGN AN EXPERIMENT TO TEST YOUR HYPOTHESIS, FIRST YOU HAVE TO STATE A HYPOTHESIS. A VARIABLE IS A FACTOR THAT CAN CHANGE IN AN EXPERIMENT. A CONTROLLED EXPERIMENT IS AN EXPERIMENT IN WHICH ONLY ONE VARIBLE IS CAGED AT A TIME. THE INDEPENDENT VARIABLE (MANIPULATED VARIABLE) IS A VARIABLE THAT IS CHANGED ON PURPOSE. THE DEPENDENT VARIABLE (RESPONDING VARIABLE) IS THE FACTOR THAT MAY CHANGE IN RESPONSE TO THE INDEPENDENT VARIABLE. A STATEMENT THAT DESCRIBES HOW TO MEASURE A PARTICULAR VARIABLE OR DEFINE A PARTICULAR TERM.

7 COLLECTING AND INTERPERTING DATA FACTS, FIGURES, AND OTHER EVIDENCE THET A SCIENTIST GATHER BY ODSERVATION ARE CALLED DATA. GRAGHS SHOW PATTERNS AND GRAGH OF DATA CAN BE VERY USEFUL FOR INTERPRETING DATA.

8 MAKING A PREDITION A PREDITION IS WHAT YOU THINK WILL HAPPEN NEXT. PERDICTING INVOLVES MAKING AN INFERENCE ABOUT A FUTURE EVENT BASED ON CURRENT EVIDENCE OR PAST EXPERIENCE. BECAUSE A PERDICTION IS AN INFRENCE, IT MAY PROVE TO BE FALSE.

9 AN OBSERVATION WHEN YOU USE ONE OF YOUR FIVE SENCES TO GATHER INFORMATION, THAT CALLED OBSERVING. AN OBSERVATION MUST BE AN ACCURATE REPORT OF WHAT YOUR SENCES DETECT. AN OBSERVATION IS LIKE DESCRIBING WHAT YOU SEE, HEAR, TASTE, SMELL, AND TOCH.

10 INFERRING WHEN YOU INTERPET AN OSERVATION, YOU ARE INFERING. AN INFRENCE MAY TURN OUT TO BE INCORRECT.

11 DRAWING CONCLUSIONS A STATEMENT THAT SUMS UP WHAT YOU HAVE LEARNED FROM AN EXPERIMENT. YOU NEED TO DECIDE WHETHER THE DATA YOU COLLECTED SUPPORT YOUR EXPERIMENT BEFORE YOU CAN DRAW CONCLUSIONS FROM IT. SOMETIMES, CONCLUSIONSLEAD TO POSE A NEW QUESTIONS AND PLAN A NEW EXPERIMENTS TO ANSWER THEM.

12 THE DIFFRENCE BETWEEN A HYPOTHESIS AND A PERDICTION. A HYPOTHESIS IS A POSSIBLE EXPLANATION FOR A SET OF OBSERVATIONS OR A ANSWER TO A SCIENTIFIC QUESTION. A PERDICTION IS WHAT YOU THINK WILL HAPPEN NEXT AFTER THE EXPERIMENT (EDUCATED GUESS).

13 CLASSIFING CLASSIFIYING HELPS YOU STAY ORGANIZED. BY PUTTING THE SUBJECT, CLASS, NAME, AND DATE HELPS YOU FIND THINGS FAST.

14 MAKING MODELS MAKING MODELS INVOLVES MAKING REPRESENTIONS OF COMPLEX OBJECTS. THEY HELP PEOPLEUNDERST AND IT.

15 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE. QUANTITATIVE=OBSER VATIONS WITH NUMBERS, RULERS, BALENCES,BEAKERS, AND THERMOMETERS. QUALITAVE= OBSERVATIONS USING YOUR FIVE SENSES (TOUCH, SMELL, HEAR, TASTE, AND SIGHT.)

16 SCORES!!!!!!! I WANT TO KNOW HOW MANY EXSTRA POINTS I GOT. SCORE:
