Planning for Data Use in the Classroom
Connections:
Educators will explore ways to use data in an engineering experience. They will engineer an activity to allow students to determine criteria and constraints, collect data, design, and test to develop a claim that is supported by data.
Objective(s):
- Explore ways to represent data visually.
- Brainstorm ways to support students in representing data visually in their bite-size engineering experience.
Teacher Planning for Data Representation in the Classroom
Which content area might introduce and work with the collection and representation of data? How will data visualization fit into your bite-sized experience and your content standards? Post your team’s ideas into your team note-taking document.
Student Plan for Data Collection
As students work with data in engineering, it will help them to come up with a plan for collecting data to design, iterate and test for a solution. A clear data-collection process can help students consider all elements of data use in engineering design for their problem before they begin.
Early in their understanding, students may need you to outline collection and analysis strategies. As they progress in their experience you can allow them to make more decisions.
Work with your bite-sized experience team to personalize this sample Data Collection Plan Template for students. Make a copy of this form and work with your team to delete or add to it so that it is useful for your students.
