1. INSTRUCTIONS
1.1 Teachers should explain the suggested techniques on how to answer questions
to the pupils.
1.2 Ensure that pupils can identify the Master Keys which are the manipulated
variables or what to change (MV / wtc) and the responding variables or what to
observe (RV / wto). Clarify about the fixed variables or what to keep the same
(RV) too.
1.3 Pupils should be exposed to the method of identifying parameters and patterns of
(MV / wtc) and (RV / wto)
1.4 Enable pupils to write (MV / wtc) and (RV / wto) in the master key diagram found
in the questions.
1.5 Teachers can use the time frame suggested in the module table.
1.6 Discuss the answers and correct the mistakes. The result can be filled in the
assessment form.
2. INTRODUCTION
In answering science questions, pupils are normally confused and not clear about the
Science Process Skills terminology. To make it easier, we teachers, should come to
an agreement where the usage of the correct methods and techniques are essential.
The following suggestions could be helpful for several Science Process Skills.
2.1 Manipulate variable (MV) / What to change (wtc) :
Things which are being changed during the experiment.
Question : 1. Based on the investigation, state what to change.
Answering format : 1. (Parameter) + objects / materials / situations
Answer : 1. Amount of sunlight.
2.2 Respond variable (RV) / What to observe (wto) :
Things which are being observed, measured or recorded during and after theexperiment
Question : 1. State what to observe in this experiment.
Answering format : 1. (Parameter) + objects / materials / situations.
Answers : 1. Height of the plants.
2. Size of the rabbits.
