Objectives

By the end of today, SWBAT… Identify independent, dependent, and controlled variables in a scientific experiment

Page 3: I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T variables, dependent variables, and constants Catalyst What question is this data table answering? What is one conclusion we can.

Experimentation

Key Point #1: A proper experiment always has an independent variable and dependent variable. The purpose of an experiment is to test how changing ONE THING affects something else.

Page 4: I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T variables, dependent variables, and constants Catalyst What question is this data table answering? What is one conclusion we can.

Variables

Independent Variable: what causes the change we are measuring (acts independently)

Dependent variable: what gets changed (depends on other things)

Remember Variables are always CATEGORIES of

things: time, amount, frequency, size, type Variables are NEVER specific things!!!

Constants

Key Point #2: Everything but the independent and dependent variable must be kept constant. Constant: variable we keep the same

If many different things change at once, we don’t know what causes the change!
