This activity is designed to be a self-paced activity to review students on the parts of Experimental Design while at home or in the classroom. There is a simple experiment for the students to complete to generate and collect data and a second example in which they design their own experiment and collect data. They are then led through the process of analyzing their data and writing a conclusion.

This resource is a simple note catcher for students to record definitions and example of independent variable, dependent variable, constant, and control. This could be coupled with an experiment or demonstration.
