Study Notes
The Scientific Method Steps
- The scientific method is a process used to answer questions and solve problems.
- It involves making observations, asking questions, forming hypotheses, conducting experiments, recording results, analyzing data, and drawing conclusions.
- The steps are: Make an observation, Ask a Question, Form a Hypothesis, Conduct an Experiment, Record the Results, Analyze the Data, Draw a Conclusion.
Working Like a Scientist - Running Fair Tests
- A fair test ensures only one variable is changed at a time.
- This allows scientists to determine if that variable is responsible for the observed results.
- The example shows an experiment with potted plants to test if light is needed for plants to grow.
- There are several boxes, some with light and some without.
- Only one variable, the presence of light, is changed.
- This allows the scientist to study the effect of light on plant growth.
