Project

1. You are require to design a set of instructionsto carry out an fair test / project based on theexcursion to Malacca Zoo.

2. Write a report for your project and present it

with power point.

3. Your report must contains of:a) Purpose of projectb) Materials / Things Needed

c) Proceduresd) Inferencese) Hypothesisf) Interpreting Data ( Table / Graph)g) Conclusion


5/12

How do i do my experiment?1. Project purpose - What do you want to find out?

Write sentence that explains what you are looking

for.eg : To investigate/show the relationship between

and .

2.Procedures-contains the steps needed tocomplete the experiment

3. Inferences - An inference is a suggested

explanation based on evidence (which can lead to

further testable hypotheses).


6/12

4. Hypothesis - an idea about the solution to a problem,

based on knowledge and research .Your hypothesis is

what you believe will happen when you run yourexperiment. It must be a statement not a question.

5. Experiment Design( procedures) - You have to write

out step by step how you will test your hypothesis and

how you will measure those changes.

6.Interpreting Data ( Table / Graph ) organize all the data

collected during experimentation. Numbers, called "raw

data," can be recorded in orderly way (table)

7. Material and equipment - Make sure you have

everything you need to run your experiment and keep the

list.

THE CRONOLOGY OF THE SCIENTIFIC PROJECT

Doing Research

IdentifyingProblem

Stating aHypothesis

Conducting projectExperimentation

Reaching aConclusion

collecting information from your ownexperiences,from knowledgeable

sources. Your first research is used toselect a project topic collectinginformation

asummary of the results of theproject experimentation and astatement of how the results relate

to the hypothesis

The problem is the scientific questionto be solved.

1) It is possible to distinguish between smokersand non-smokers by the sound and quality of their

voice alone? S

2) Does gender, age, or smoking habits affect a

persons sense of smell? RS3) Will non-smokers have a greater lung capacity

than smokers? RS

Format :

Project title : Do people from different backgrounds have

different lung capacities?

(write a title that describes what you are investigating. Tryto make it catchy !)

Description : Students in the primary and intermediate

grades will:1. Recognize that breathing is a necessary, automatic life

process;

2. Observe and record data on respiration rate;

3. demonstrate how air enters and leaves the lungs;

4. Observe how respiratory rate changes with different

activities;

5. Use counting as a means of gathering data.

Figure 5.7 shows another way to represent the data. This

figure is a line graph (a diagram that uses lines to expresspatterns of change).
