The student can improve the investigation **by dropping the balls from the same height**. This ensures that any differences in the distances the balls fall are due to factors related to gravity and not differences in the initial drop height. Keeping the drop height consistent allows for a more controlled and accurate comparison of how different balls behave under the influence of gravity.
