Math-infused Science: Part 2 Choosing the Most Appropriate Graph for Your Data

(Tu Feb 9, 7-8:30pm Eastern Standard Time)

In this 1.5 hr. workshop participants will use an example data set to explore different methods of depicting the same set of numbers in several different ways. We will define the relationship between the research question and the visual representation of data and address the impact visual presentations make on conclusions. As a participant you will be guided through activities you can use with your students in either a synchronous or asynchronous teaching platform. All activities in this workshop will be focused on helping students determine the most appropriate type of graph for their data. The techniques taught in this workshop can be utilized in either a remote or in-person classroom.

Although the examples in this workshop will be based in math and science, this 1.5-hour workshop is open to teachers of all grade levels and subject areas.
