Independent check: initial record

Independent task · Initial record

This initial/new pair is also Use a Quick Check. It repeats the independent task from Teach the Lesson; it is not fresh after The independent task has been attempted. Goal: evaluate evidence about limiting cooling. Write a bounded initial statement, then turn the page.

Fresh 120 g water each trial;40.0°C start;22°C surroundings;15 min;covers P/Q. Cups/lids/exposure/procedure match. Display to 0.1°C; accuracy not supplied. Covered liquid water; no active heating/cooling, ice, phase change, direct sunlight or meaningful evaporative cooling. Room, cup, lid and supporting surfaces are at the stated surrounding temperature; it stays constant. Readings represent the sample temperature with a consistent procedure. This is a paper scenario, not apparatus instructions.

Initial paired endpoints

Constructed teaching data: these values were invented for this activity, not collected in an experiment.

1. Compare changes and write an initial claim about these two trials. Explain how confident the record allows you to be.
