In this worksheet, students will use data displayed in a column graph to answer a set of interpretation questions.
This worksheet is a part of a larger unit where students develop their understanding of what data is, where it comes from, and how they can interpret and present that data in tables and graphs.
Plan and conduct statistical investigations by posing questions or identifying a problem and collecting relevant data; choose appropriate displays and interpret the data; communicate findings within the context of the investigation
Acquire, validate and represent data for nominal and ordinal categorical and discrete numerical variables to address a question of interest or purpose using software including spreadsheets; discuss and report on data distributions in terms of highest frequency (mode) and shape, in the context of the data
Interpret line graphs representing change over time; discuss the relationships that are represented and conclusions that can be made
Pose questions and collect categorical or numerical data by observation or survey
Construct displays, including column graphs, dot plots and tables, appropriate for data type, with and without the use of digital technologies
Describe and interpret different data sets in context
