Math-infused Science: Part 4 Choosing the Most Appropriate Graph for Your Data

The final workshop in this series guides teachers through the technical steps of helping students create a graph that looks the way the student intends it to look. We will navigate the formulas, buttons, options, and functions of two common graphing programs to make visual displays of data that are both beautiful and informative. A well-constructed graph includes a title, axis labels, units, error bars, and a figure caption, so we will go over the steps needed to manipulate the programs so the graph reflects everything a student may want to communicate.

This 1.5-hour workshop is open to STEM teachers of all grade levels.
