SCIENTIFIC METHOD

Steps involve in scientific method

1. State the problem/ aim 2. Hypothesis 3. Variables 4. Equipments 5. Material 6. Technique 7. Data collection 8. Discussion 9. Conclusion

1. Making observation - Gathering information about a phenomenon. 2. Making inference - Making a smart guess or a tentative explanation about the phenomenon based on the observation. 3. Identifying problem - Asking question(s) based on the inference. 4. Making hypothesis - State the relationship between a MV & a RV to explain the question asked. 5. Identifying variables - Identifying the manipulated, responding and fixed variables of an experiment to test the hypothesis made. 6. Controlling variables - Deciding how to manipulate the chosen variable, what to measure & how to keep the fixed variables constant. 7. Planning an experiment - Determining of materials, apparatus, procedure, method of collecting data and ways to analyse and interpret the collected data. 8. Collecting data - Making observations or measurements and recording systematically. 9. Interpreting data - Organising and analysing data. 10. Making conclusion - Making a statement about the outcome of the experiment and whether the hypothesis is accepted or rejected. 11. Writing a report - Communicating the details of the experiment.
