00:00.000 --> 00:05.520
In this video we will discuss how to create your method outline. The key here is to include enough

00:05.520 --> 00:11.920
detail while keeping your outline concise. So we will look at number one what is too much,

00:11.920 --> 00:17.680
number two what is too little. The method outline is marked under the exploration criterion.

00:19.280 --> 00:25.280
The method outline is in subsection three under planning. My outline includes all necessary

00:25.280 --> 00:32.000
information but not too many details. As you can see here I start from the experimental setup.

00:32.000 --> 00:36.880
There's no need to explain how you prepare your equipment. For instance here I could explain that

00:36.880 --> 00:42.880
I start by turning on my smartphone by getting water from a tap or that I download the Google

00:42.880 --> 00:48.960
Science Journal app but these details are unnecessary. It is important to include the number of trials

00:48.960 --> 00:53.840
at each value of the independent variable and make it clear that you will do measurements at

00:53.840 --> 01:00.080
different values. You should do this as concisely as possible without writing a separate line for

01:00.080 --> 01:06.480
every trial or value. The last three steps in your method outline can basically be identical

01:06.480 --> 01:12.640
to my final three steps. Simply change the number of trials if needed, the independent variable

01:12.640 --> 01:18.480
and the values. Now we are done with step three action three and you know how to create your

01:18.480 --> 01:23.680
method outline. In the next video we will talk about safety issues.
