Rain Gauge Research Page 2

All scientists have an obligation to communicate the results of their research with the

broader community. A final oral or poster presentation discusses the question, the

hypothesis, the course of the experiment, the results achieved, and the scientist's

conclusions. A poster provides a brief, visual representation of the scientific method

applied to the question and experimentation process.

During training week, you will perform the scientific method from start to finish! We only have a week, so

we have designed and set-up the data collection piece for you. All you need to do is to collect data from

the rain gauge located in Canterbury Fields. Your rain gauge is ______________________. Make sure

to collect your data at the same time of day, record any interesting observations, etc.
