As IB Science students, you have the unique opportunity to work on a research project that steps outside the boundaries of the traditional class
curriculum. The Collaborative Research Project is an interdisciplinary endeavor. Our goal is to develop and implement an investigation that combines areas of both Biology and Physics. Such an investigation has the potential to open your eyes to applications of the sciences that you may never have considered.

Objectives for Day 1
Introduction to the project Meet in small groups containing
students from both classes “Brain Storm” project ideas
![Page 7: Science Research Group 4 Project. As IB Science students, you have the unique opportunity to work on a research project that steps outside the boundaries.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062618/55142f78550346ec488b5ed7/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Guidelines
Allow everyone in the group to have input.
Elect a group leader that ensures everyone is heard.
Limit suggestions to projects that can be done in a high school laboratory, at a reasonable cost, and in the allotted time period.
Learn from one another!

Data Analysis
Now you’ve got data…….
……so what does it mean?
![Page 13: Science Research Group 4 Project. As IB Science students, you have the unique opportunity to work on a research project that steps outside the boundaries.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062618/55142f78550346ec488b5ed7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Data Analysis
Your conclusions must be supported by statistical analysis! This will tell you whether your results can
be viewed as significant, or whether your results are likely just crass chance.
Which statistical analysis should you do? What do you want to find out?
![Page 14: Science Research Group 4 Project. As IB Science students, you have the unique opportunity to work on a research project that steps outside the boundaries.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062618/55142f78550346ec488b5ed7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Data Analysis
Analyzing the difference between two sample means “t” test
Is there a significant difference between this average and that average?
![Page 15: Science Research Group 4 Project. As IB Science students, you have the unique opportunity to work on a research project that steps outside the boundaries.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062618/55142f78550346ec488b5ed7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Data Analysis
Analyzing the difference between more than two sample means Analysis of Variance
Compares the variance within the samples to the variance between the samples

Data Analysis
Analyzing the relationship between two factors Coefficient of Correlation
How does one variable change as the other variable changes?
