The variable that is made different in an experiment
The steps used by engineers to answer a question and create a solution by making/innovating a technology
Ask questions about the natural world and trying to answer those questions
The variable that is kept the same in an experiment
Learning science concepts surrounding an engineering problem through reading, watching videos, lectures, or by performing experiments
The variable that is measured in an experiment
Design solutions to problems by designing and building technologies
The steps used in science to answer a question through experimentation
So that the only thing that is causing the results is the independent variable
The variable that is the "effect"
Those items created by engineers to solve a problem.
The variable that is the "cause"
Technology
Why we have controlled variables
Dependent Variable (cause or effect)
Dependent Variable (what's measured or what's made different)
Independent Variable (cause or effect)
Science
