Task 1: Chose an independent variable to test. State the research question including
your independent and dependant variables.
Task 2: Identify all the other variables that may have a significant affect on your
investigation. Put these under a heading ‘Control Variables’.
Aspect 2 & 3: Controlling variables & developing a method for data collection
Task 3: Select the apparatus you will need and include a diagram if necessary.
Your plan should be able to be followed exactly by anyone who reads it, so be explicit.

Data Collection and Processing
Process your raw data in a form that allows you to plot a suitable graph in order to
answer the research question. Remember to include uncertainties in your
processed data and error bars on your graph.
Plot a neat graph with correct scales and labeled axes. Use your graph to produce a
trend line.
Aspect 1: concluding.
What evidence do you have that suggests the relationship you have chosen?
You should discuss the relevance of the uncertainties or systematic errors here.
Does your evidence match what you could have predicted?
Discuss any variation from what is predicted.
Discuss any relevant data that you can obtain from the graph.
Justify any data stated with theory.
Discuss how you would improve the weakness and limitations in your experiment.
State exactly what could be done to make the improvements.
