The student's method outlined in the exploration is appropriate for addressing the research question, as it involves fieldwork to investigate the connection between time and water quality. The proposed method ensures the collection of relevant and sufficient data, including pH, electrical conductivity, and dissolved oxygen, gathered from 18 samples at 6 locations. Detailed steps in the methodology section allow for potential replication of the method in a different time or setting. However, the student needs to clearly outline the sampling approach and provide reasoning for its selection. Additionally, the student should address any potential risks, environmental considerations, and ethical issues associated with the exploration.
