Students calculate the length, width, height, perimeter, area, volume, surface area, angle measures or sums of angle measures of common geometric figures. They create an equation of a line of best fit from a set of ordered pairs or set of data points. They interpolate and extrapolate to solve problems using systems of numbers. Full Review »

Students determine the relationship between leg length, stride length, and speed in humans and bipedal dinosaurs. They collect data and graph these human characteristics then use actual data collected from dinosaur track pads and fossils to interpolate the speed data for bipedal dinosaurs. Full Review »

Students explore dinosaurs. Students determine the relationship between leg length, stride length, and speed in humans and bipedal dinosaurs. Students analyze collected information. Based upon the data, dinosaur tracks, and fossils, students interpolate the speed data for bipedal dinosaurs. Full Review »

Students review previous concepts (GIS is a tool, data from other sources can be used together, GIS stores data and this data can be retrieved). Then, they discuss value and accuracy of point information and the areas between sample locations. Students then compare soil type layer and yield map and complete a Zonal Statistic graph.

Students recognize the difference between the two data formats: raster and vector. Then, they identify the value of each including the value of interpolation. Students then complete an interpolation of yield and soil test data using accurate estimation of nutrients and other values. Finally, they identify the types including spline and krigging.
