Application
Investigate practical problems and questions
Apply the methodology of scientific inquiry: begin
with a question, design an investigation, gather
evidence, formulate an answer to the original
question, and communicate the investigative
process and results.
Identify the key components of controlled
experiments: hypotheses, independent and
dependent variables, constants, controls, and
repeated trials.
Conduct designed experiments; Design a data
table that includes independent and dependent
variables, derived quantities and the number of
trials; formulate valid conclusions that are
supported by the gathered data.
Create an appropriate graph for a given set of
data; and select the proper type of graph for a
given set of data, identify and label the axes, and
plot the data points. Specify, construct and
interfpret frequency distributions, scattergrams,
line plots and histograms. Introduce and use
Newton's Laws of Motion.
