Dealing with Data Assessment
This assessment task focusses on data collection and recording. Students explain software's role in sorting and calculating data, pose a question for data collection and record data in a frequency table. Suitable for pre and post-assessment, assessing understanding of data handling processes.
Learning goals
- We are learning to interpret and compare data displays.
- We are learning to collect data by observing, collecting and accessing data sets and recording data using appropriate methods, e.g. lists, tallies, symbols, tables and spreadsheets.
