For this exercise, the student must come up with THREE (3)HYPOTHESES about our current environmental condition right now,whether it be the climate, building designs, pollution, orpolicies, etc., whichever the student prefers.
Follow and show the steps that where discussedin the powerpoint presentation (Hypothesis and Theories)
Transcribed Image Text from this Question
1.Ask a Question • The scientific method starts when you ask a question about something that you observe: How. What When, Who, Which, Why, or Where! • For a science for project some teachers require that the question be something you can measure, preferably with a number 2. Do Background Research • Rather than starting from scratch in putting together a plan for answering your question, you want to be a savvy scientist using library and Internet research to help you find the best way to do things and ensure that you don’t repeat mistakes from the past. 1 Scientific Method 3. Construct a Hypothesis • A hypothesis is an educated guess about how thangt work. It is an attempt to answer your question with an explanation that can be tested. A good hypothesis allows you to then make a prediction: ir I do this) then this) will happen.” • State both your hypothesis and the resultere prediction you will be testing Predictions must be easy to measure. Scientific Method 4.Test Your Hypothesis by Doing an Experiment Your experiment tests whether your predictions accurate and thus your hypothesis is supported or not. is important for your experiment to be a fastest. You conduct a fa test by making sure that you change only one factor at a time while keeping all other conditions the same . You should ako repeat your experiments several times to make sure that the Sirst results weren’t just an accident Scientific Method 5. Analyze Your Data and Draw a Conclusion Once your experiment is complete, you collect your measurements and analyze them to see they support your hypothesis or not. Scientists often find that their predictions were not accurate and their hypothesis was not supported, and in such cases they will communicate the results of their experiment and then go back and construct a new hypothesis and prediction based on the information they learned during their experiment. This starts much of the process of the scientific method over again Even they find that thelr hypothesis was supported, they may want to test it again in a new way.
