Assessment - Using a range of formats to present information

This project is where you put everything you've learned in this class together into a report and a poster that shows you can communicate your findings to others. Remember the last step in the scientific method is to tell others what you have found.

So for this assessment you will synthesize all of the results from your Excel exercises (the shell data) into a single report as if you were preparing it for publication. It will not be a full report, because you are focussing on the parts that are relevant to data analysis (introduction (your hypotheses) results (your graphs and statistics) and discussion (interpreting your results).

You will also produce a scientific poster to present the information from your report. Both the report and poster will be submitted to Moodle.

Where to start: your hypotheses

You have a big data set that you have made in Excel from shell measurements. You can think about a beach with wave and wind action try to make a guess about why some shells end up in the high tide zone and others lower in the tidal range. Following the scientific method, you have made observations. Now it's time for step two, to formulate your hypotheses

1. Write testable null and alternative hypotheses for: a. colour, b. size, c. species

These hypotheses should go under the heading "introduction" and be the start of your report.

Results

The next section is "results" and is where you will present all of your evidence in an attempt to test your hypotheses. This section will:

• include all tables and figures that test your hypotheses.
• For each figure, any trends or lack of trends should be written in a description above it.
• All figures and tables should be in scientific writing format with appropriate captions.

See the marking schedule for a more detailed list of what you should include.

Discussion

This is an important part of communicating results in which you clearly explain to the reader what you found. You discuss the interpretation or what the results mean to the reader. Do not just restate the results, but use your own reasoning and evidence from previously published reports to say why you think there is a difference, or if there is no difference, between the shells found at high tide and

those found at low tide. You should include peer reviewed references to support your reasoning. Peer reviewed referencing is not specifically stated in the marking schedule, but is part of science writing and will improve your discussion.

• Write a discussion of roughly one page with a rationale synthesizing evidence for why you found changes or lack of changes in shell characteristics between tidal levels.
