Submission Required
Using their visualizations and notebook entries, students sort possible explanations into observed evidence, likely contributing factors, unsupported guesses, and contradictory evidence. In pairs, they test whether their original hypothesis still fits the data and identify where correlation does not prove causation. Students draft a concise evidence-based claim, one limitation, and one next question for their investigation notes.
