Hypothesis testing

Turn explanations into testable predictions, seek discriminating evidence, and revise claims when the data require it.

01 · How to use this set

Start from the communication job

Turn explanations into testable predictions, seek discriminating evidence, and revise claims when the data require it.

Read the frame, try to complete your own sentence before opening an example, then compare the English structure with its German parallel. The point is retrieval and choice, not passive list reading.
