Variables

When we hear of the word 'variables' we think math or least I do, but variables are very important in designing and recording experiments. This week we'll discuss three types of variables:
controlled- things we keep the same.
independent- the one thing we change.
dependent- the measured result.

In order to perform valid experiments like the "Save the Snow" project, we must use these variables correctly or the experiment might not be true.
