Physics Universal Skills
Data and analysis
Working Scientifically training before the targeted original question drill.
Adaptive teaching card
Make it concrete
Analogy
Data and analysis is like tracking a system with arrows and numbers: decide what changes, what stays conserved, and what equation describes it.
Why now: An analogy helps when the definition feels abstract.
Do this: Match each part of the analogy to the science idea.
Learn it
Mean, percentages, standard form and significant figures appear across all papers.
Graphs need labelled axes, units and sensible scales.
Anomalies should be noticed and handled with a reason.
