dc.description.abstract	High school students often struggle with accurate data collection in the science laboratory. This study examined the effects of inquiry-based laboratory learning experiences on student ability to recognize the limited precision of measurements, ability to see error, manipulative ability in using laboratory instruments and commitment to accuracy. Results indicate increased student ability to see and correct error as well as improved understanding of error.	en
