Biology:
The effect of light in photosynthesis -
Jack brought the data from his experiment, and we reviewed his experimental design. He needed to present his data in a specific form, that we examined on-line. I showed him how he should put his numbers in tables, one for each trial. We then created (by hand) graphs of each of his test trials. Jack drew out and labeled each graph, and we discussed the other statistical tests that scientists would run to test his data for significance. After the graphs were complete, we examined his data and he determined his conclusions. I helped him formulate his thoughts into a formal conclusion for his report. We also discussed what he would suggest for future research on this subject, and we added them to the report. I emailed his work to his home, before we ended the session.
