EMERGENCY Homework: On page xii, Claims, evidence and reasoning; Describe/define a claim, evidence and reasoning. Read the example of C-E-R, then using your model, construct your own argument by recording your claim, evidence and reasoning. You can use your etextbook too. Copy/Make the table of Claim-Evidence- Reasoning found on page xiii, in your digital notebook; Homework section. Then write down your answers.

What exactly is CER, and how does it work?

CER all starts with a question asked by the teacher. This question is based on a phenomena or lab experience. The student’s explanation or answer, as you may have guessed, will consist of three parts: a claim, the evidence, and the student’s reasoning.

Claim

A claim is a statement that answers the question. It will usually only be one sentence in length. The claim does not include any explanation, reasoning, or evidence so it should not include any transition words such as “because.”

Evidence

The evidence is the data used to support the claim. It can be either quantitative or qualitive depending on the question and/or lab. The evidence could even be a data table the student creates. Students should only use data within their evidence that directly supports the claim.

Reasoning

The reasoning is the explanation of “why and how” the evidence supports the claim. It should include an explanation of the underlying science concept that produced the evidence or data.

Explanation:

surface modification is a versatile tool and has been widely used in material science and engineering that has significantly facilitated the study and characterization of complex materials. at  matexcel, experienced experts in surface science can offer tailored efforts to meet the specific needs from our clients.

explanation:

the universal gravitation equation. since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. if the mass of one of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is doubled.
