Item description
This DIY hands-on project takes students through the process of collecting, sharing, representing and analyzing qualitative data. Students collect data on the brand, color and type of cars and then present their data in bar and circle graphs.
- Why are there so many white cars on the road?
- Why are some roads full of potholes?
- Which brand of car is the most popular in my town?
I have done this project multiple times, have “ironed out any administrative wrinkles” in the practical application of the project and it works every time. Students have a lot fun with the project. They take ownership of the project, since they collect the data themselves.
