So I'm in 7 grade and doing a science project. I have a question:

What does it mean when it says: RESEARCH?

I am required to have this on my board. Does it mean what I looked up to help me on this project?

Also, what does it mean when it says: DATA?
Do I just summarize what happened during and after the experiment?

What is the difference between the Data and the Results/ Analysis?

Thanks.

From a good dictionary, here are definitions for each word:

1. research = The systematic investigation into and study of materials and sources in order to establish facts and reach new conclusions. Tell where you looked.

2. data = Facts and statistics collected together for reference or analysis. Tell what you found.

3. analysis = Detailed examination of the elements or structure of something, typically as a basis for discussion or interpretation. Tell how you did the experiment and what you found.
