Scientific Process 5
L. O.
SWBAT explain each step of the scientific method.
SCIENTIFIC METHOD
The scientific method is a process for experimentation used to:
explore observations and answer questions
search for cause and effect relationships in nature
Fair test
It is important for your experiment to be a fair test.
A fair test occurs when you change only one factor (variable) and keep all other conditions the same.
SCIENTIFIC METHOD
Steps
1. Ask a ?
2. Research
3. Hypothesis
4. Experiment
5. Analyze Data
6. Conclusion
7. Communicate Results
Hypothesis
Is an educated guess about how things work.
“If [I do this], then [this] will happen.”
Must easily be measured.
Remember: your experiment must be repeatable.
(repeated by others)
Example Hypothesis
"If I raise the temperature of a cup of water [independent variable], then the amount of sugar that dissolves [dependent variable] will increase because of the temperature increase."
SCIENTIFIC METHOD
Changing ideas or new information might cause a scientist to back up or repeat steps at any point in the process.
SUMMARY* A summary is in paragraph form and at least 3-4 sentences long.
• Today we learned about …– What is a hypothesis?– How can new information influence or
change an experiment?
