Meta Chart: Create a Scatter Plot Chart

Here is a fitting question for middle schoolers to consider: Is there a relationship between grade point average and frequency of sending texts? Starting statisticians examine a scatter plot and discuss any patterns seen.

Scatter plots tell a story about the data — you just need to be able to read it! Building from the previous lesson in the series where learners created scatter plots, they now learn how to find associations in those scatter plots....

Having more letters in your name helps you get a better grade in your math class—or does it? Learners create scatter plots to organize data. The lesson places emphasis on determining scale and intervals and labeling axis.

Sal trades his tablet for an Excel spreadsheet in this video, which covers fitting data to a line. Using a word problem about median income, he not only solves the problem but also demonstrates how to use scatter plots and Excel tools in...

No scatter brains here—only graphs! A thorough video lesson begins by describing the process of plotting data to create a scatter plot. The instructor goes on to explain how to draw a line of best fit and then use it to make some...

Box and whiskers have more to do with data than they do with cats! A video lesson describes how to plot, analyze, and compare box plots. Mathematicians first learn to create a box plot and then how to use information about the quartiles...

Middle and high schoolers use a spreadsheet to graph data. In this graphing lesson, learners determine how two parameters are correlated. They create a scatter plot graph using a computer spreadsheet.

How good is the fit? Using an interactive, classmates create a scatter plot of bivariate data and fit their own lines of best fit. The applet allows pupils to display the regression line along with the correlation coefficient. As a final...

Organize your data on a graph. Use the data, pair them up as coordinate pairs, then graph them, resulting in a scatter plot. But how, you ask? Watch this tutorial to learn the step-by-step process needed to draw a scatter plot and...

So you've got some x-values and some y-values and you want to make a scatter plot. First thing is to make a table for your x and y values. Then make ordered pairs and you can plot them.
