What is Objective 1 All About?This part of TAKS tests your ability to:

A) Plan and implement investigative procedures including asking questions, formulating testable hypothesis, and selecting equipment and technology;

B) Collect data and take measurements with precision;C) Organize, analyze, evaluate, make inferences, and

predict trends from data; andD) Communicate valid conclusions.

Page 3: TAKS Blitz Day 1 PowerPoint: Objective 1

Planning an ExperimentAll Experiments BEGIN WITH A QUESTION.

TAKS loves to ask about questions.For example: “Which question can best be

answered by the following experiment?”

So you need to know what kind of questions experiments investigate, and how they investigate them.

Page 4: TAKS Blitz Day 1 PowerPoint: Objective 1

HypothesisA hypothesis is a testable explanation of a

question or problem, that relates two variables (the independent and dependent).

Q: What does “testable” mean?A: A testable hypothesis is one that can be

tested by experimentation.

Page 5: TAKS Blitz Day 1 PowerPoint: Objective 1

Are these testable hypothesis?“Reaction rates are affected by dust clouds.”

YES. Reaction rates are measurable.“Cats that eat Purina brand cat food are happier.”

NO. You cannot measure or test cat emotions.“Drinking tea will lower blood pressure.”YES. Blood pressure and tea consumption are measurable.

“Skipping school causes students to have lower grades.”YES. Grades and school missed are both measurable.

Page 6: TAKS Blitz Day 1 PowerPoint: Objective 1

But wait!Make sure that your answer:

+ Shows the relationship tested in the experiment (it talks about the thing that is changed, and the thing that is measured)

+ States them in the right order. “The amount of Wheaties you eat affects

how you do on TAKS.”“How you do on TAKS affects the amount

of Wheaties that you eat.”?

Independent

Dependent

Page 7: TAKS Blitz Day 1 PowerPoint: Objective 1

But wait!Make sure that your answer:

+ Shows the relationship tested in the experiment (it talks about the thing that is changed, and the thing that is measured)

+ States them in the right order. “The amount of Wheaties you eat affects

how you do on TAKS.” Makes Sense!“How you do on TAKS affects the amount

of Wheaties that you eat.”?

Page 8: TAKS Blitz Day 1 PowerPoint: Objective 1

What Question?Looking at the experimental setup shown, what do you think the question was?

Page 9: TAKS Blitz Day 1 PowerPoint: Objective 1

What Question?We can look at what they’re changing, which is how the shark detects the fish, and what they’re measuring.

Their question is probably: “How does a shark detect its pray?

Temperature (Independent)

Time (Dependent)

Page 12: TAKS Blitz Day 1 PowerPoint: Objective 1

What if we’re wrong?What if I hypothesized that I would run

faster as the weather got hotter? I would go back and make a new

hypothesis, based on the observations.The MORE TIMES you do an experiment,

or the BIGGER SAMPLE (number of subjects), the MORE VALID your data will be because it’s MORE REPRESENTATIVE!

Page 13: TAKS Blitz Day 1 PowerPoint: Objective 1

All Roads Lead to a ConclusionThe conclusion is whatever connection

between variables that your data supports.

Often, TAKS will ask you for the best conclusion that is supported by a diagram, such as a graph or table.

LOOK AT THE GRAPH.Learn it, LOVE it, then USE it to answer the question.

heating 100 mL of water to the boiling point?A A 10 mL (TOO SMALL) test tube held above a

Bunsen burnerB A 200 mL beaker placed on a hot plateC A thermal coil (WTF?) inside a 100 mL cylinderD A sealed (BAD IDEA) 300 mL flask in a warm-

water bath

Page 20: TAKS Blitz Day 1 PowerPoint: Objective 1

more safety:• Know your chemicals– watch

for corrosive substances• Always ADD ACID to water,

never add water to acid.• Do not handle hot or super

cold containers without proper holders.

• When heating a substance, aim it away from everyone.

Page 21: TAKS Blitz Day 1 PowerPoint: Objective 1

safety with gases• Odors are tested by wafting. • Reactions which produce gases

should be done in a fume hood. • Gases should be trapped only in a

large volume container to provide for rapid expansion.

Page 22: TAKS Blitz Day 1 PowerPoint: Objective 1

Okay, so the key points:• Strong experiments have variables that we change and

measure.• These are the independent and dependent variables, and are

part of the question, hypothesis, and data sections of the scientific method.

• We use equipment safely to make sure that our measurements are as precise and valid as possible.

• To answer these questions on TAKS, use the diagrams / graphs / tables and THINK through the problem.

Practice Question 1

Which of these questions can best be answered with this experimental setup?

A Can the amount of salt in the water help elodea avoid disease?

B What happens to salt as elodea sues water?

C Will elodea increase the amount of salt in the water?

D Does the amount of salt in the water affect elodea growth?

Similar sprigs of elodea were placed in four test tubes. Each test tube contained water with a different concentration of salt ranging from 0 to 3 percent. The length of each sprig was measured after 10 days.
