Sample Data for Scientific Testing Day 1
LESSON OUTLINE
5min Students complete the Do Now by answering the question.
10min Teacher outlines several scenarios and class discusses how the testing could be made more fair and remove bias that would change the results.
5min Scientific Test 1: Students memorize a list of numbers and recall the numbers after a minute. Repeat with new set of numbers while being distracted.
10min> Data is entered into table for a t-test, p-value is interpreted to determine if the results are significantly different (0.05 or less) or probably not different (over 0.05).
10min Scientific Test 2 is complete followed by Scientific Test 3.
