Introduce middle school scientists to scientific variables and the scientific method with a musical video. The song is a delightful parody of One Direction's "What Makes You Beautiful." It belts out the definitions of controlled,...

Let knowledge of rates of change flow into a lesson. By watching a video, pupils see an additional real-world example on rates of change. Using provided information about a leaking water tank, they complete a table of values and plot a...

Viewers will learn how to graph lines, such as y=2x+1. The instructor emphasizes the relationship between the x and y variables, creates an x/y table, and finally graphs the equation. A total of three examples are given in this video.

Here's a nice, clean resource on rates of change. For an example involving the cost of a carpet cleaning service, scholars watch a video that shows how to create a table of values and a graph. They must determine whether the graph is a...

Just a couple of ways to look at some data regarding basketball free throw percentages for a specific player. Make a table and a coordinate axes graph. Plot the ordered pairs to get a nice visual to take a look at the data. Watch this...

Starting with a set of values for the x and y variables, this video shows how to tell whether these points determine a linear or non-linear function. Sal first defines linear functions in terms of the change in y over the change in x,...

What's the difference between frequency and cumulative frequency? Young scholars consider the question as they create a cumulative frequency graph. They watch as the frequency totals grow to create a new shape of the graph.

The teacher gives a very thorough explanation of numerical or quantitative data being anything where the answer to a question would be a number. Whereas any other answer might be considered categorical. She shows several different ways...

Here's a lesson sure to keep classes in line! A straight-to-the-point video explains the steps of creating a line graph from a table of data. Following the video, learners have plenty of opportunities to practice with the included...

Sal helps with data organization in this video, which focuses on stem and leaf plots. Clarifying that "this is just one of many, many, many ways to visualize data that you will run into in your mathematical or statistical futures," he...

The teacher illustrates two different exponential tables and explains what each one of them means. These are function tables, one demonstrates exponential growth and the other exponential decay. She clarifies how to analyze the...

So you have a data set and you want a visual diagram to help you analyze the data. Not sure how to draw it? The instructor illustrates four different ways to look at a frequency table: two tally tables, one line graph, and one bar graph....

How many ways can you think of to display data? A quick video lesson describes the process of creating one of them, a line graph, which is also referred to as a frequency polygon. After creating the graph, the instructor models how to...

Learn the ins and outs of creating graphical displays. A video lesson demonstrates the process of creating a bar graph from a frequency table. The instructor models each step including labeling axes, determining intervals, and creating...

Let the pictures do the talking! Young scholars learn to analyze data displayed in pictograms using a video resource. They then test their analytical skills by reading and answering questions using several pictogram examples.

So you have a data set and you want a visual diagram to help you analyze the data. Not sure how to draw it? The instructor illustrates four different ways to look at a frequency table: two tally tables, one line graph, and one bar graph....

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.

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.

Make an estimate by getting in line. The class works with scatter plots and lines of best fit to make an estimate for given values. Pupils determine whether there is a positive or negative correlation and draw a best-fit line. Using the...

Easy as pie ... with a little work anyway! A complete lesson provides video instruction on creating a pie chart from a set of data. The practice that follows helps learners draw their own pie charts while practicing skills from the...

Explore the effect sample size has on margin of error and confidence interval. The instructor calculates the margin of error of fictional data. He shows how the calculation changes when the sample size changes while keeping the other...

Creating a cumulative frequency graph is one thing, reading them is another. A thorough video lesson explains how to find key information from a cumulative frequency graph. The instructor demonstrates the best way to read the graph and...

The third practice in the Next Generation Science Standards applies analyzing and interpreting data. The video explains why this is important to scientists and many different ways to organize data. Then it moves on to discuss how to...

Frequency polygons are a different way to represent frequencies over intervals. Pupils take frequencies for intervals of data from a frequency table and plot them as a frequency polygon. Budding mathematicians find information about the...
