Elucidating the concept of box-and-whisker plots, Sal explains not only how to generate the diagram but also how to read one. He uses several examples to help young mathematicians become familiar with the format and explains its...

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...

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...

Another way to organize data beyond the stem and leaf plot - the histogram - is the focus of this lesson. Sal's objective is to introduce viewers to these methods of organization, making them familiar and straightforward, so students can...

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...

Rain, rain go away, come again another day! Learn to observe and track the weather in a weather journal. Young meteorologists learn the basics of how to get started and the tools needed to be successful.

Paul Andersen explains how graphs are used to visually display data that is collected in experimentation. He describes five main types of graphs; line graph, scatter plot, bar graph, histogram and pie chart. He describes the important...

This QuickTime movie reviews basic concepts for graphs. As you watch and listen to the teacher and student interact it helps clarify the thinking behind applying this concept.

Use collected data to graph scatter plots on a coordinate plane. Take quiz to check understanding.

Create a scatter plot by displaying data on a coordinate plane. Assess understanding with a quiz.

This video provides an opportunity to identify a number pattern. Then organize that data in a data table and graph it. As you watch and listen to the teacher and student interact it helps clarify the thinking behind applying this...

This QuickTime movie uses the children's book, "Tiger Math" as a starting point for using graphs to tell a story. As you watch and listen to the teacher and student interact it helps clarify the thinking behind applying this concept.

This QuickTime movie provides more opportunities to match stories to graphs. As you watch and listen to the teacher and student interact it helps clarify the thinking behind applying this concept.

In this video lesson [4:12], students see how to extract information from a table and insert it into a graph. It is 4 of 8 in the series titled "Creating a Graph from a Table."

Explore how to use frequency distribution to organize data and determine the difference between histograms and bar graphs.

Box-and-whisker plots are explored in this video tutorial. The lesson reviews how to set up the graph and labels the parts of a box-and-whisker plot.

In this video lesson [3:09], students see how to extract information from a table and insert it into a graph. It is 2 of 8 in the series titled "Creating a Graph from a Table."
