Fresh test recheck
Fresh recheck · Whole design or one feature?
Fresh matched 100 g samples starting at 11°C; 23°C room; 15 min. New design changes both seam overlap and layer count; all other conditions match. Covered liquid water; cups/lids, mass, starting temperature, duration, exposure and reading procedure match within and across trials. Surroundings stay at the stated room temperature. No ice, phase change, active heating/cooling, direct sunlight or meaningful evaporative cooling. Each trial uses fresh samples. Accuracy is not supplied.
Supplied design record
Constructed teaching data: these values were invented for this activity, not collected in an experiment.
Paired trial | Old final °C | New final °C |
|---|---|---|
1 | 17 | 15 |
2 | 16 | 14 |
3 | 17 | 15 |
1. What does the full matched record support? Does it show that seam overlap alone caused the difference? Propose evidence that would address that narrower question.

A fair comparison of complete designs can change more than one feature. An isolated feature claim needs a comparison that separates that feature from the others.
