Hypothesized relationship between the variables and the predicted results is clear and reasonable based on what has been studied.
|
Hypothesized relationship between the variables and the predicted results is reasonable based on general knowledge and observations.
|
Hypothesized relationship between the variables and the predicted results has been stated, but appears to be based on flawed logic.
|
No hypothesis has been stated.
|
|
The relationship between the variables is discussed and trends/patterns logically analyzed. Predictions are made about what might happen if part of the lab were changed or how the experimental design could be changed.

|
The relationship between the variables is discussed but no patterns, trends or predictions are made based on the data.
|
The relationship between the variables is not discussed.
|
|
Experimental design is a well-constructed test of the stated hypothesis.
|
Experimental design is adequate to test the hypothesis, but leaves some unanswered questions.
|
Experimental design is relevant to the hypothesis, but is not a complete test.
|
Experimental design is not relevant to the hypothesis.
