Analysis

Based on the data collected:

  • Was your hypothesis correct?
  • Was your hypothesis not applicable?
  • Is there more going on than you originally thought? (shortcomings in hypothesis)
  • What shortcomings might there be in your experiment?
  • What shortcomings might there be in your data?

Conclusions

What can you ascertain based on the experiment performed and data collected? Document your findings here; make a statement as to any discoveries you've made.
