This MEP resource from CIMT is taken from text book 8A which covers the mathematics scheme of work for the first half of year 8.

Data analysis covers: frequency tables for discrete ungrouped data, mean, median, mode and range.

The initial file forms part of the textbook. The activities sheet, extra...

This collection of Nuffield Maths resources explores Data Analysis. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in GCE A level. 

This resource from the IET Faraday programme, supported by MEI and Tomorrow's Engineers, provides students the opportunity to explore information generated from a motor race.

"Modern data analysis techniques can be used to provide ongoing performance analysis of the vehicles in a motor race. However, even...

This MEP resource from CIMT is taken from text book 8B which covers the mathematics scheme of work for the second half of year 8.

Questionnaires and analysis covers: questionnaire design, data display and line graphs.

The initial file forms part of the textbook. The activities sheet, extra exercises...

This resource from the IET Faraday programme, supported by MEI and Tomorrow's Engineers, provides students with the opportunity to explore the risk of failure of safety systems in a power station.

"A Power station experiences a loss of coolant to its reactor about once per year. To...

These materials have been designed by Cre8ate maths to support mathematics teaching in the context of chemical substances. The resources include Making Molecules, Waste Management and Hair and Beauty, giving students the opportunity to build models, investigate sequences, interpret graphs and discover the...

In this resource, from the DfES Standards Unit, students learn to define a sequence using the
general form of the nth term, define a sequence inductively, recognise and define an arithmetic and a geometric progression and to reflect on and discuss these processes. Students should have some understanding of...

This SMILE resource contains two packs of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of analysing and interpreting data, from reading information from a bar chart to interpreting cumulative frequency graph.

Analysing and interpreting data pack one...

This task assesses analysing data using graphs or charts.

A group of friends are planning on selling candy bars at a school tuck shop. They conduct a survey of 30 people, asking the question, ‘how many bars of candy do you eat in a week?’

The results are presented as raw data, stating male or female,...

This resource, from Mathematics for Engineering Exemplars, shows how to build a mathematical model of liquid draining through a tank and how to use the model to determine the time required for a tank to completely drain. Bernoulli’s conservation of energy equation, which requires integration and differentiation, is...

In this activity, students use data on electricity consumption to investigate how average values are calculated. They also consider how accurate a source of published data is and whether it may contain bias.

...

This extension activity, from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), follows on from the How Much Waste?...

This mini-course from the Nuffield Exploratory Data Skills Project: Making Sense of Data considers how to choose appropriate techniques from the earlier mini-courses. As a result of this mini-course students should learn to:

• think about data as a set of records containing fields
• know that there are...

This collection of resources from Nuffield are designed to improve the ability of students to analyse and present data, ask questions about and find meaning in data and discuss critically the interpretation of data. 'Exploratory Data Analysis' emphasises getting to know the data, analysing and finding meaning,...
