This is the "traditional" Science Fair project.
Inquire means to ask for information or investigate something to find out more. Scientific Inquiry is the basic experiment category, where a question is asked, a hypothesis is created, an investigation is performed, and a conclusion is reached. It requires the use of higher order thinking skills to learn science. It uses a hands-on, minds-on approach.
The Scientific Method: The Scientific Method is the key part of this category. It is the order you will do your investigation. The steps are:
Ask a testable question
Research the topic
Make a hypothesis about the outcome based on that research and/or your own knowledge
Design the investigation
Conduct the investigation
Collect data
Make sense of the data and draw a conclusion
Below is a Google Slide presentation about Scientific Inquiry. This is what you will use to guide you through the process. It is required to use this in order to complete the project. You won't be able to finish it all at once, so pay attention to the slide number where you stop. You can watch it on the small screen, or you can click the slide. A square with an arrow will show up so you can enlarge it.
