Description

This assessment resource includes two versions—a standard and a modified version—to support differentiated instruction and evaluation of students' understanding of data analysis. Both assessments focus on interpreting data sets, identifying trends, outliers and variations and making evidence-based recommendations. The modified version simplifies language and data sets to support diverse learning needs. This versatile resource is ideal for assessing students' ability to interpret and draw conclusions from real-world data.
