Question/Observation/Data set/etc. Research Develop Hypothesis/Prediction Experimentation or Pertinent Observations Analyze Data Conclusions 2. How do we determine if a question is a good scientific question? If the question concerns a moral or religious issue, we do not depend upon science to answer it. Also, it must be measurable and definable, we must be able to control outside factors and it must be falsifiable. 3. What is the difference between a hypothesis and a prediction? A hypothesis is a testable prediction. Predictions can be made that aren’t testable. Predictions are often written as If/Then Statements. If you can’t test it, it’s a bad hypothesis. We don’t prove or disprove hypotheses, we day the data supported the hypothesis or did not.
