Complete the Planning Sheet
Complete the Logbook
Prepare a SCIENTIFIC REPORT as per the checklist provided. Report must include tables and graphs showing the investigation results. Data must be analyzed, with calculated averages and Standard Deviation values. Graphs should include units, labels, headings, correct axes, correct axes, scale, key, Line of Best Fit
Detailed project description with requirements and CHECKLIST are given in word document titled “Y10 Depth Study Student Research Project Booklet”.
Suggest a hypothesis for the identified problem based on research findings.
Identify the independent, dependent and constant variables.
State the aim of your experiment and list the equipment you need.
Design and complete an experiment(s) to investigate your hypothesis.
You may collect experimental results using a range of different technologies e.g. a video camera, a pH meter, a stopwatch, a thermometer etc. If you are uncertain about how to measure something, ask your teacher.
Evaluate your experimental procedure and change it if necessary.
Analyze the data to develop an evidence based conclusion.
Indicate any problems you experienced, improvements that could be made, failures and probable causes for these failures.
You must provide Valid and Reliable reference sources for the information used in the task, presented in a Bibliography using APA or Harvard styles. At least one reference must be cited in the report text.
