Eighth graders use data from surveys conducted with parents, peers and themselves to create computer-generated scatterplots. They make inferences from their scatterplots.

High schoolers investigate different types of correlation in this statistics lesson. They identify positive, negative and no correlation as it relates to their data. They then find the line of best fit for the plotted data.

Students graph an equation and analyze the data. In this algebra lesson, students graph scatter plots and identify the line of best fit using positive correlation, negative correlation an d no correlation. They apply their data analysis...

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

Young scholars analyze patterns of exponential models by collecting data in paper folding and M&M investigations. They use graphing calculators to create scatter plots that lead to equations for the exponential models. They then...

Students analyze data and make inferences. In this algebra lesson, students collect and analyze data as they apply it to the real world.

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...

Students view a video clip about unemployment. They research data and create a scatter plot graph. They discover the importance of graphs and what they can tell us. They create their own publication on unemployment.

New skills are developed as young scholars use graphing calculators and ranger technology to capture and graph the sequence of bounces a ball makes when dropped. After recording the height of four or more bounces, they use the collected...

Students 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.

Pupils investigate linear, quadratic, and exponential regressions. They plot sets of data points, determine the regression equation that best fits the data and lastly investigate the coefficient of determination.

In this Super Bowl worksheet, students create line plots of all winners and losers of the Super Bowl.  They create stem-and-leaf plots, scatter plots, and bar graphs of football data.  This one-page worksheet contains...

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.

Young scholars solve equations dealing with best fit lines. In this algebra lesson, students solve problems by analyzing data from a scatterplot, and define it as positive, negative or no correlation. They classify slopes the same way as...

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.

Twelfth graders solve problems using differential equations.  In this Calculus lesson, 12th graders analyze data regarding the spread of a flu virus.  Students use the symbolic capacity of the TI-89 to develop a model and...

Learners find common ratios of geometric sequences on a spreadsheet. Using this data, they create scatter plots of the sequences to determine how each curve is related to the value of the common ratio. They will consider whether series...

In this force and acceleration worksheet, 8th graders answer ten questions based on two graphs. The first graph is a scatter plot, the second is a line graph.

Students use the data from USA TODAY Snapshot "World population milestones" to explore and explain the trends in the world population.

Students estimate and compute with rational numbers. They compare, order and convert among fractions, decimals and percents. Students analyze problems to determine if there is sufficient or extraneous data to solve.

Students survey the class and graph the results. In this graphing and data collection lesson plan, students conduct a survey to see where their shirts were produced. Individuals use software to graph the results and create a written...

Learners explore coffee production.  In this cross-curriculum rainforest ecology lesson, students research regions where coffee comes from and investigate how the native birds in the rainforest are effected by coffee...

Learners examine scatterplots and determine the equation of a line using the slope-intercept method. Students interpret graphs, draw inferences, and sketch a curve of best fit for the graph. Based upon patterns in the graphs, learners...

Using the TI-89 calculator, students explore the statistical, graphical and symbolic capabilities of the TI-89.  Students investigate topics such as solving systems of equations, finding inverse functions, summations, parametrics...
