In Easy STEM Data Collection for Teachers and Students, another easy way for students to collect and make sense of data is for them to graph it. I don’t know about your students, but my students LOVED to graph things. They were aces at collecting the data, and constructing the graph! They could add all of the elements and really make it look like they knew what they were doing. When we first started making graphs, my students would be hard pressed to tell you what any of it meant (read this post), but, wow, they could crank out one stellar looking bar graph.
As students progress through school, the trusty bar graph is always there. But, what about the other kinds of graphs? STEM gives students an opportunity to experiment with other kids of graphs that likely might be a better choice for for their data. Line graphs, pie charts, and scatter plots help students see data in a more visual, and hopefully more meaningful way.
