Investigation and Experimentation

 * 1) Scientific progress is made by asking meaningful questions and conducting careful investigations. As a basis for understanding this concept and addressing the content in the other three strands, students should develop their own questions and perform investigations. Students will:
 * 2) Plan and conduct a scientific investigation to test a hypothesis.
 * 3) Evaluate the accuracy and reproducibility of data.
 * 4) Distinguish between variable and controlled parameters in a test.
 * 5) Recognize the slope of the linear graph as the constant in the relationship y=kx and apply this principle in interpreting graphs constructed from data.
 * 6) Construct appropriate graphs from data and develop quantitative statements about the relationships between variables.
 * 7) Apply simple mathematic relationships to determine a missing quantity in a mathematic expression, given the two remaining terms (including speed =distance/time, density= mass/volume, force =pressure × area, volume= area × height).
 * 8) Distinguish between linear and nonlinear relationships on a graph of data.
