Matching Pairs Matching - VariablesOnline version matching columns by Benjamin D Morgan 1 Learning science concepts surrounding an engineering problem through reading, watching videos, lectures, or by performing experiments 2 Ask questions about the natural world and trying to answer those questions 3 The variable that is measured in an experiment 4 The variable that is kept the same in an experiment 5 So that the only thing that is causing the results is the independent variable 6 The steps used by engineers to answer a question and create a solution by making/innovating a technology 7 Those items created by engineers to solve a problem. 8 The variable that is made different in an experiment 9 The steps used in science to answer a question through experimentation 10 The variable that is the "cause" 11 The variable that is the "effect" 12 Design solutions to problems by designing and building technologies Independent Variable (cause or effect) Why we have controlled variables Dependent Variable (cause or effect) Engineering Design Process Engineering Science Controlled Variable definition Independent Variable (what's measured or what's made different) Technology Dependent Variable (what's measured or what's made different) Step 2: Research/Generate Concepts Scientific Method
