How long do we have to wait? Given several days of times between eruptions of Old Faithful, learners create a graphical representation for two days. Groups combine their data to determine an appropriate wait time between eruptions.

Scholars apply knowledge learned over their high school math courses in order to determine their college readiness. The 20-page resource emphasizes applied problem solving.

Perform an activity on performance testing with a lesson focused on the purpose of wheel bearings on skateboards. Learners conduct performance testing on a skateboard to collect and interpret data.

Predict the year that college costs will double in your state using linear modeling. The first part of this two-part project based learning activity asks young mathematicians to use data from the College Board. They graph the data,...

Have learners use math to prove they are sports stars! Assess a pupil's ability to create and analyze data using a variety of graphs. The class will be motivated by the association of math and basketball data.

Read through the extensive background information and then lead your geology or physical oceanography class through an investigation of actual temperature anomaly data from the Juan de Fuca ridge. They translate the data onto a plot,...

Learners identify different types of functions and units of measurements. In this statistics lesson, students will collect data, graph their data and make predictions about their data. They plot a linear regression graph.

In this van Allen Radiation Belts worksheet, students are given the formula for the field line of the Earth's inner magnetic field. Students use this equation to find the polar coordinates of a field line in the van Allen Belts. They...

In this trends in the periodic table worksheet, high schoolers plot the ionization energy vs. atomic number and they plot atomic radius vs. atomic number of the first 20 elements. Students analyze their graphs and answer questions about...

Students analyze the number of times each letter in the alphabet is used in the names of the states. In this statistics lesson, students create a stem and leaf plot, box and whisker plot and a histogram to analyze their data.

Students solve systems of equation through graphing. In this algebra lesson, students solve linear equations and analyze the result to figure out if there is one solution, no solution or infinitely many solutions. They graph their lines...

Students examine the differences between standard and non-standard English and use text-speak to rewrite a plot summary and a news story. They identify a type of non-standard English and determine the characteristics that make it...

In this thermometric titration learning exercise, learners titrate hydrochloric acid with sodium hydroxide to determine its concentration. They measured the solution's change in temperature, plotted their data, and used the graph to find...

In this gases worksheet, students read about the Kelvin scale of temperature, they answer 3 fill in the blank questions about the relationship between temperature and pressure and they plot the temperature and pressure of gas samples at...

Learn how to identify the diameter and circumference of a circle. Then, collect data on a circle and relate it to the diameter and circumference of a circle. Last, plot data and find the line of best fit.

In this thermometric titration activity, learners investigate the temperature changes when an acid neutralizes an alkali. High schoolers graph their results from the titration and draw the two best-fit lines on their graph. Where the...

Learners investigate the differences between linear and exponential models.  In this linear and exponential models lesson, students make a table of given data.  Learners determine if the data is linear or exponential by...

Students convert degrees between two different units. In this algebra lesson, students graph linear equations and identify the line of best fit. They use their line of best fit to make predictions given a set of data.

Students define terms and analyze data. In this statistics lesson, students plot their data using bar and line graphs. They analyze their data after they graph it and apply the results to the Great Depression.

For this statistical process control worksheet, students solve and complete 15 various types of problems. First, they estimate the standard deviation of the given process. Then, students use the target value as a center line and draw a...

In this geometry worksheet, students plot coordinate pairs and connect the points to create different shapes. They give th shapes its polygon's name. They differentiate between simple functions and rectangular hyperbola.

Students write an equation for a linear function. In this algebra instructional activity, students collect data, plot it and graph it. They identify the equation of the graphed data and define the slope and y-intercept of the graph.

Learners explore graphs and define the different ways they are used to display data. In this algebra lesson, students collect data and plot their data using the correct graph. They draw conclusions from their graphs based on their data.

Adjust this lesson to fit either beginning or more advanced learners. Build a scatter plot, determine appropriate model (linear, quadratic, exponential), and then extend to evaluate the model with residuals. This problem uses real-world...
