In the Science SC exam, if it says, design an investigation, what are we meant to include. Do we just include the controls & variables and method, because that is what one of my teachers said. But than another teacher said we had to do the aim, hypothesis, controls & variables, method, apparatus, risk assessment. What are we meant to do, if it asks that question in the SC.

My teacher said only a Method is needed. (If the Question is 6 marks then it is definitly just a Method)

Remember to include these things in the method:
Steps (Verbs start a step)
Amounts
SaFtey (Goggles, Gloves...)
Equipment
Results (Where do they go & what is recorded)
Controlled Variables

Include these for a full 6 marks.
