3 core topic prac? (1 Viewer)

[Buiboi]

ive got an open ended prac comin up and it says that its tested among the 3 core topics...whats that suppose to mean?

how can 3 topics be tested in the one prac? and i doubt its 3 mini pracs

can anyone gimme some ideas on what they mean or asking

oh yeah whats an open ended investigation?

3 pracs, each of different topics... it's rather common for science to pull such stunts.

open ended... darn, not too sure... maybe give you a question, equipments and you are to conduct, and record your experiemtns as you go? ( you won't be given instructions)

huh 3 pracs... but its only one period to do all this? well im assuming its goign to be like 1-2 hours...is that enough for 3 pracs?

but then whats an open-ended prac? wahts the difference with that and a normal prac?

 

[xiao1985]

i did it when i was in year 12... i don't see what's so hard about it?!

I would assume that normal prac you will be given instructions and some layout of results (perhaps)

whereas open ended gives you equipment, a sheet of paper, period.

so we're just testing for a hypothesis...hmmmmm

 

[xiao1985]

Yes. And if my interpretation is right, then you gotta write hypothesis yourself too...
