2. Repetition / · Describe the common methods and models used in different fields of science and analyze the benefits and limitations of them.
· Evaluate a scientific investigation using evidence of scientific thinking and problem solving.
· Analyze an experimental procedure to identify a design flaw and propose a method for correcting it.
· Identify test (independent) variable and outcome (dependent) variable in an experiment.
· Differentiate between replication and repetition and evaluate the use and need for each in a scientific investigation.
· Interpret and analyze data to make predictions and defend conclusions.
· Explain the value of a hypothesis, even if they turn out not to be supported by the data. / Core Text Book: Pearson Interactive Science Florida Ch. 1.5, Ch. 2.1
