Meeting 7: Question Mars - Question Selection, Experiment Design and Refining Your Experiment

QUESTION MARS – QUESTION SELECTION, EXPERIMENT DESIGN and REFINING YOUR EXPERIMENT

It is important for students to know that starting with general questions is good, but that those general questions need to be focused on something very specific (like the geologic features related to general topics they were looking at with the Mars Image Analysis activity). The goal of this activity is to help them focus their questions. Students will continue to work toward their research question by establishing multiple working hypothesis and choosing their most interesting and likely explanation for the Big Picture Question.
