INTERPRETING DATA
Write the aim / purpose of investigation State the trend of change in the data State the relationship between the variables State the conclusion for the experiment
Question Key
What is the aim / purpose of the investigation? Based on the .. state the trend in the What is the relationship between.. What conclusion can be made from this investigation?
i. Aim / purpose To find out the relationship between {what to change} and { what to measure} ii. Trend Increase : From small getting bigger or larger From lower became higher Decrease: From bigger/larger getting smaller From higher getting lower Did not change / unchanged iii. Relationship As { what to change} increase / decrease, the {what to measure} increase/ decrease iv. Conclusion As { what to change} increase / decrease, the {what to measure} increase/ decrease Science concept : Plant needs water to stay alive Light can be reflected
