    I'm guessing "measure skill" means "the ability to measure things." In reality, all experiments by necessity require data and typically we need to measure things to get them (even if this is done by devices, programs or computers). When doing science labs, you'll likely need to use scales, pipets, and various glasswear to measure different things. Even if you're used to using a ruler, getting a really good measurement that you can feed into equations and get meaningful results from requires a bit of practice and more care than you might think. I'd also say that the measurement skill comes into play when making approximations or assumptions about experiment. No measurement is infinitely accurate, you can't measure the width of an atom with a standard 12 inch ruler, or if you did, you'd have to have a very large amount of error. Making these logical conclusions about your devices, where they reach their limits, and what potential error you may have and where it comes from are all important when doing science.
