Designing a Controlled Experiment

Designing Your Investigation (on a whiteboard): • Part II: Pillbug Behavior:

- Purpose: method that will be used, IV and DV. - Hypothesis: If (IV), then (DV), because… - Procedure: Steps discussing how you will modify

the procedure: IV, DV, control and standardized variables.

- Data: table(s) to record findings - Instructor’s Approval

Pill bug behavior and environmental preference. Post Lab Analysis: • Table 2: Pillbug Taxis with Altered (Your group’s

variable) Environmental Condition • Chi-square Analysis #2: Chi-square Calculation,

Post Lab Conclusion (CER): • Restate the purpose of this experiment. • Restate your hypothesis for this experiment. • Statement that answers the following question, “Do the results of your experiment support or refute your hypothesis?”

• Then, list and explain, in detail, how the data that you collected led you to your statement.

• Include statistical test(s) to support your statement. • Therefore, in conclusion… remember your experimental purpose.
