Book excerpt: All twelve AQA A Level Physics Required Practical Activities, written up!The twelve practical tasks presented here are the tasks specified by AQA as Required Practical Activities in the A Level specification for course code 7408 (for A Level exams in May/June 2017 onwards). They have been chosen to satisfy the Common Practical Assessment Criteria (CPAC) as agreed by all exam boards so that students experience similar practical work. The specific investigations conducted and presented here may not be the same as the Required/Core Practical tasks for other exam boards.For students to be awarded the Practical Endorsement with their A Level certificate, they must demonstrate that they are competent in five key skills: following instructions; applying investigative approaches and methods when using instruments and equipment; safely using a range of practical equipment and materials; making and recording observations; and researching, referencing and reporting. For the endorsement to be awarded, these skills can be demonstrated by any twelve practical tasks as long as they cover the specified range of techniques and apparatus. Exam boards also specify the twelve required practical tasks so that students are adequately and properly prepared to answer questions about them in the written examinations.This document can be used to help students appreciate the required level of competency that needs to be attained in each of the five key skills, but does not necessarily present examples of the best way to present their work, nor are they necessarily examples of the best possible results attainable from the practical tasks. Presentation of laboratory work and acceptable accuracy of results is up to the school's discretion.

Download or read book On the Epistemology of Data Science written by Wolfgang Pietsch and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-12-10 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses controversies concerning the epistemological foundations of data science: Is it a genuine science? Or is data science merely some inferior practice that can at best contribute to the scientific enterprise, but cannot stand on its own? The author proposes a coherent conceptual framework with which these questions can be rigorously addressed. Readers will discover a defense of inductivism and consideration of the arguments against it: an epistemology of data science more or less by definition has to be inductivist, given that data science starts with the data. As an alternative to enumerative approaches, the author endorses Federica Russo’s recent call for a variational rationale in inductive methodology. Chapters then address some of the key concepts of an inductivist methodology including causation, probability and analogy, before outlining an inductivist framework. The inductivist framework is shown to be adequate and useful for an analysis of the epistemological foundations of data science. The author points out that many aspects of the variational rationale are present in algorithms commonly used in data science. Introductions to algorithms and brief case studies of successful data science such as machine translation are included. Data science is located with reference to several crucial distinctions regarding different kinds of scientific practices, including between exploratory and theory-driven experimentation, and between phenomenological and theoretical science. Computer scientists, philosophers and data scientists of various disciplines will find this philosophical perspective and conceptual framework of great interest, especially as a starting point for further in-depth analysis of algorithms used in data science.
