This instructional module offers a wide variety of resources to support a middle school unit on data analysis. Standards-based lessons on graph interpretation are presented in the context of real-world applications, such as population growth, junk mail, and global temperatures. Don't miss the "applet" collection, offering fun and interactive virtual activities on graphing and statistics for grades 5-8.
This module meets several standards within Benchmarks for Science Literacy (see Standards link), but is also aligned with data analysis standards found in the National Council for Teachers of Mathematics Standards (NCTM). Please note that this resource requires Flash, or Java Applet Plug-in.
