Experiments

Experiments:

follow the scientific method
are organized and results are recorded.
demand a conclusion

Traditionally, Alaskan Native people did experiments to see which tools were the most effective, which materials were stronger, which methods were the most productive.

Examples and definition.

Sample experiments.

Some experiments have variables that can't be controlled. This calls for an
"Observe and think" project.
