Many experiments will follow a given procedure or method hence there is no need for a detailed description. The procedure may be described briefly in outline. The impersonal passive voice should be encouraged. The following should be included, as appropriate:
 aim of the experiment
 a labelled diagram, description of apparatus, instruments used
 how the independent variable was altered
 how measurements were taken or observations made.

PC (c)
Readings or observations should be recorded in a clear table. The table must include:
 correct headings
 appropriate units
 correctly entered readings/observations.

PC (d)
Readings should be analysed and presented using the following, as appropriate:
 a table with suitable headings and units
 a table with ascending or descending independent variable
 a table showing appropriate computations
 a graph with independent and dependent variables plotted
 a graph with suitable scales and axes labelled with quantities and units
 a graph with data correctly plotted with a line or a curve of best fit.

PC (e)
Conclusions should contain, as appropriate, a statement relating to:
 overall pattern to readings or observations
 trends in analysed information or results
 connection between variables
 measurement of a physical quantity.

PC (f)
The experimental procedures should be evaluated with supporting argument by including a few brief sentences, as appropriate, commenting on:
 effectiveness of procedures
 control of variables
 limitations of equipment
 possible improvements
 possible sources of error.
