Elements Of Science Investigation Worksheet

Link to the TASK SHEET Students who have not submitted an Investigation Design and therefore have not already been assessed on their ability to plan a science investigation MUST ensure that their final report includes an Aim, Hypothesis, clearly identified dependent variable, independent variable, and at least 4 controlled variables. It MUST also include materials and method. See this PPT for information on how to do this well. Include this as the first page of your report. You can consider your first submission to me as a draft and fix it up before including it. All students must ensure that their report contains the information below. Students who DID write an Investigation Design and have it graded should start their Investigation Report …show more content…

AE1 X Analyse your data by discussing the precision (scatter) of your data and by commenting on reliability. AE1 □ Describe the sources of possible systematic and random exp. errors. AE1 □ Evaluate your procedure. Describe strengths and weaknesses of your procedure AE2 □ Describe and justify three improvements you could make to the investigation design. AE2 □ CONCLUSION Write a statement in relation to your original aim and hypothesis (supports, refutes or inconclusive). AE1 □ Describe any relationship between the independent and dependent variables established. AE1 □ GROUP WORK EVALUATION Complete the peer assessment form below for each of your group members, rating how they contributed via initiative, focus, and collaboration. X Start your prac report on the next page: . Title: How can a different magnetic alloy in an magnet affect it’s performance? Put a copy of your original proposal here (with changes in response to my comments if you want to improve on it). Aim: (what is the purpose of this prac?) To see what types of magnets have the most magnetic strength in comparison to it’s monetary value and size, and therefore would be most suitable to use in our modular …show more content…

Shows emerging skills in individual and collaborative work. I4 Results: Present the data collected in a table of results AND in a graph. Describe the trends and relationships as shown by the data. Obtains, records, and displays findings of investigations using appropriate conventions and formats accurately and highly effectively. Obtains, records, and displays findings of investigations using appropriate conventions and formats mostly accurately and effectively. Obtains, records, and displays findings of investigations using generally appropriate conventions and formats with some errors but generally accurately and effectively. Obtains, records, and displays findings of investigations using conventions and formats inconsistently, with occasional accuracy and effectiveness. Attempts to record and display some descriptive information about an investigation, with limited accuracy or effectiveness. AE1 Discussion Analysis of data and concepts and their connections, to formulate conclusions and make relevant predictions Systematically analyses data and their connections with concepts, to formulate logical and perceptive conclusions and make relevant
