Presentation transcript:

Scientific Method Observation/Research/Problem Hypothesis Experimentation Collection of data Analysis and conclusion Repeat

Problem: Always the toughest part!! Written in the form of a question. All research will be focused on finding an answer to the question. The Answer to the problem should have only one answer, for example, Yes/No Greater/Lesser

Hypothesis Written as an “IF…… THEN…” statement. For example: If plants are denied light for two months than they will die. If: the action of the experiment Then: the results of the experiment

Experimentation: The experiment must be a controlled experiment. -Control group (Compare results to) -At least one experimental group (contains the experimental variable) There should be at least 10 subjects in each group or it should be repeated on one subject 10 times.

DATA: Rough/Raw: Smooth: Analyzed: This is disorganized lists, sketches… Smooth: Data for each group is displayed separately in graphs and tables Analyzed: Graphs and tables that compare your experimental group with your control group

Analysis and Conclusion These are often found together. Conclusion: Based on experimental results the hypothesis is accepted/rejected. Analysis: Brief discussion of results and why they lead you to accept or reject the hypothesis
