classroom?
• Poll Everywhere• Text JANELLSIMPSO349 to 37607• Then text your response.
Why incorporate student research into your curriculum?
English Language Arts Common Core Literacy Standards
Cite textual evidence in support of arguments.
Integrate and evaluate multiple sources of information in order to address a question or solve a problem.
Write arguments to support claims using valid reasoning and evidence.
Conduct sustained research projects based on focused questions.
Follow a complex multistep procedure when carrying out experiments, taking measurements and performing technical tasks.
Evaluate hypotheses, data analysis, and conclusions in a technical
text, verifying data when necessary.
StudentQuestions
Question Rubric Advanced Proficient Basic
Originality Student poses a unique question.
Student changes a common question with a unique twist.
Student chooses from among common questions.
Independent Variable
Student chooses IV with more than three levels of change.
Student chooses IV with more than two possible levels of change.
Student chooses IV with only two possible levels.
Dependent variable
Measurement of the dependent requires sophistication appropriate for grade level.
Student indicates measurement of the dependent variable.
Student chooses DV with only yes or no answer.

• What materials are available for conducting experiments on __________________?
• How do _____________________ act?• How can I change materials to affect the
action?• How can I measure or describe the change to
this action on ____________________?
Hypothesis Rubric Advanced Proficient BasicLevels of Independent Variable
Clearly indicated
Suggested No levels of IV
Effect on dependent variable
Clearly predicted
Suggested No prediction
Logic Change in DV is clearly tied to levels of IV
Direction of change in DV is NOT predicted
Experimental Design
Trial Procedure
• Photo and or/video evidence• Data tables and graphs
• Salvinia Collection
• Surrounding Area Data
Sample Collection
in the Field
Materials and Methods
Prepare a collagen treatment for the cells.
Replate the cells in a growth medium. Replate the cells in a
differentiation medium, changing the medium twice every
four days.
