AQA Research Methods: Covers, aim, hypothesis and IV and DV Powerpoint Information sheet Exam notes Actrivity sheets

To exchange or not to exachange? A fun whole class lesson on IV and DV Instructions for activity: Cut out each study and the keywords that have the IV and DV. Mix them up and then randomly give each student one study slip and one keyword IV/DV slip (that does not belong to the study). The students will need to read the study and attempt to identify the IV and DV. Next, the students will need to get up and mingle with each other and find the correct IV and DV slip of paper for their study (which another student has). Once the student has found the correct IV and DV, they swap the IV and DV slip of paper (they keep their study). Now that the student has the correct (assuming it is correct) they need to identify which is the IV and which is the DV. Even though the students exchange the IV and DV slips of paper, one will still have slip that belongs to someone else.
