Scientific Method: What
scientists do!
Ask
a Question/determine a
purpose
Comes from observing
Form a hypothesis=educated guess
Collect data
 Control
group=the group not
receiving the factor being tested,
nothing is done to this group
 Independent variable=one part of
an experiment that can change,
determines the outcome
 Dependent variable= factor being
measured in an experiment
 Analyze the Data
Graphs, tables, charts, etc.

Science vs. Engineers
Scientists
Engineers
• Ask questions about
the world
• Test theories
• Communicate
Information
• Chemist: finds out
information about
elements or
chemical reactions,
does experiements
• Define problems
• Test possible
solutions
• Design and Build
• Chemical Engineer:
design water wells,
design plastics,
cleaning supplies,
design solutions for
oil spills, ect.
Science and Engineering Love
Models!
Explain
things that we can’t see
Allow for us to test hypothesizes
Are not perfect representations
Communicate through
Argumentation:
Evidence vs. Claim
Claim:
a statement that
answers the question
Evidence:
scientific data that
supports the claim
