Identify the Controls and Variables
Mr. Jones wants to increase worker productivity.
A traveling salesman insists that his tonic will do
the trick.
Mr. Jones is desperate and buys out the
salesman.
However, Mrs. Jones is skeptical.
She
decides to test the tonic.
She creates two groups of 50 workers each in
different rooms of the factory.
They all have the
same supplies and are assigned the same task.
The
task is to wrap as many gift boxes of Tinker-
Toddler Tots as possible for the Charity Event.
Both groups begin at the same time.
Group A is given the special juice to drink while
they work. Group B is not given the special juice.
After four hours, Mrs. Jones counts how many
wrapped gift boxes each group completed.
Group A wrapped 287 packages
Group B wrapped 413 packages
Identify the:
1.
Control Group
-
Group B
2.
Independent Variable
-
Special juice
3.
Dependent Variable
-
Group A
4. What should Mrs. Jones' conclusion be?
-
Group B worked faster because they
didn’t have the tonic and was able to
concentrate more.
5. How could this experiment be improved?
This experiment can be improved more by
taking the time it takes for them to wrap one
gift and try doing it with the same age
group.
Kaylona’s family is coming to visit for the
holidays.
She noticed a slimy green film covering
the shower walls.
Her friend Betty suggested she
try the latest rage, apple cider vinegar.
Kaylona
trys to use natural cleaning products whenever
possible so she decided to test Betty’s suggestion.
She sprays one side of the shower with apple cider
Identify the:
6. Control Group
-
Shower sprayed with water only
7. Independent Variable
vinegar and the other side she sprayed with water
only.
After 3 days of "treatment" there is no change in
the appearance of the green slime on either side of
the shower.
- Apple cider vinegar
8. Dependent Variable
-
Cleaning slimy green layer
9. What was the initial observation and
hypothesis?
-
Apple cider vinegar plays an important
role in the removal process of the slimy
green layer on the walls
10. What should Kaylona's conclusion be?
-
Apple cider vinegar is not useful in
cleaning the removal of the slimy green
layer.
10-year-old Benjamin loves Marvel comics.
He is
convinced
that mice exposed to radio waves will become
extra strong (maybe he's been reading too much
Radioactive Man).
He decides to perform an experiment.
He placed
10 mice near a loudly playing radio and he put 10
mice in another room where the radio could not be
heard.
After 5 hours he compared the strength of each
mouse from both groups of mice by placing a
heavy block of wood between the mice and their
food.
He found that 8 out of 10 of the radio waved mice
were able to push the block away. 7 out of 10 of
the other mice were able to do the same.
Identify the:
11. Control Group
-
Mice not exposed to radio waves
12. Independent Variable
-
Radio waves
13. Dependent Variable
-
Strength of mice
14. What should Benjamin's conclusion be?
-
Radio waves play an important role with
the strength of the mice.
15. How could Benjamin's experiment be
improved?
