Central to good science are accurate observations, testable hypotheses, well-designed experiments or other tests, and reasonable data analyses. The purpose of this activity is to introduce the basics of designing and analyzing experiments. This is accomplished by using a computer simulation that involves the real-world industry of farming fish. The two laboratory exercises include further steps in organizing and analyzing data.
