Three Kinds of Variables
Independent Dependent Control
![Page 4: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Independent Variable
Something that is changed by the scientist– What is tested
– What is manipulated
– Graphed on the x axis
![Page 5: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Dependent Variable
Something that might be affected by the change in the independent variable– What is observed– What is measured– The data collected during the investigation– Graphed on the y axis
![Page 6: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Control
A variable that is not changed– Also called constants
– Allow for a “fair test”
– There can be more than one control

With your group, find the variables for the following example:
![Page 8: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Students of different ages were given the same jigsaw puzzle to put together. They were timed to see how long it took to finish the puzzle.- Identify the variables.
![Page 9: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What was the independent variable?
Ages of the students–Different ages were tested by
the scientist
![Page 10: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What was the dependent variable?
The time it to put the puzzle together–The time was observed and
measured by the scientist
![Page 11: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What was a controlled variable?
Same puzzle–All of the participants were tested
with the same puzzle.–It would not have been a fair test
if some had an easy 30 piece puzzle and some had a harder 500 piece puzzle.

The higher the temperature of water, the faster an egg will boil.Identify the variables.
![Page 14: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Independent variable – temp. of water
Dependent variable – time to cook an egg
Controlled variable – type of egg

The temperature of water was measured at different depths of a pond.
![Page 17: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Independent variable – depth of the water
Dependent variable – temperatureControlled variable – thermometer

What is an independent variable and what is a dependent variable?

Designing Experiments
1) Hypothesis - the problem you are investigating and your prediction.• Sometimes you need to do research
before making a hypothesis.
![Page 21: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Identify the independent variable, what will you be changing?
Identify the dependent variable, what will you measure? How you will measure it?
![Page 22: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

3) Create a procedureStep by step, clear enough so
anyone could follow it
![Page 24: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
4) Do your experiment–Collect data in your table
–Make observations
![Page 25: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
5) Analyze your data and draw conclusions–Make a graph
–Look back at your hypothesis, was it correct? Incorrect? Why?
–What could have caused error?
–What could you do better next time?
![Page 26: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
6) Publish and share your results!– Scientists share what they learn to benefit
everyone
![Page 27: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The greater the amount of soap in a soap and water mixture, the bigger a soap bubble can be blown. Design an investigation to test this
hypothesis.– Identify the variables– What exactly will be changed? How will
it be changed?– What exactly will be measured? How will
it be measured?
![Page 28: Do Now: List the steps of the scientific method as best as you can.](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051820/5697bf7a1a28abf838c82a88/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The farther a ball drops, the higher it will bounce.
Design an investigation to test this hypothesis.– Identify the variables– What exactly will be changed? How
will it be changed?– What exactly will be measured?
How will it be measured?
