This inquiry is intended to provide students with practice developing investigable questions that need data, and specifically large datasets, to be answered. Click the teacher resources link for teaching guides and student handouts.

Learn how to graph dependent and independent variables. Use the SciTools application to display data on your calculator.

Find out what variables are in a scientific investigation and what the difference is between an independent, dependent, and controlled variable. Look at samples of different types of variables and find out what makes a good variable.

An explanation of how dependent and independent variables are used during experimentation.

Given investigation scenarios and lab procedures, students will identify independent variables, dependent variables, constants, and control groups.

Use examples to determine and explain the linear correlation of independent and dependent variables.

This task will help students understand the difference between between independent and dependent variables. Aligns with F-IF.A.1.

Students analyze different experiments to determine independent variables, dependent variables and control groups.

Making dinner become a math challenge and science experiment with Bill Nye. This interactive exercise focuses on using what you know about dependent and independent variables to make a prediction about whether boiling water with the lid...
