Students use video learning and construct electromagnets and use them to collect data, graph, and share with others.

Students explore the similarities and differences between ocean mammals and fish. The characteristics of the life forms observed are placed onto a graph. The classroom becomes the botom of the sea and is explored to gain the required data.

Students explore the effects of resistance training on the muscles. Data on the muscle mass of rats is examined is graphed to determine any increase in mass due to training.

First graders plan a trip for Christopher Columbus. They use their math skills to construct a ship for Columbus' voyage. They show their ship and calculations to their classmates and build graphs to show the amount of supplies needed to...

Students study food chains by creating their own slide show using KidPix. They compare information after sharing their slide shows as a whole group. As the children are watching the slide shows of their peers, they tally every time...

Learners evaluate the relationship between rainfall and runoff of a small island for one year. In this rainfall vs. runoff instructional activity, students analyze the relationship between the rainfall and the runoff on Barro Colorado...

Students explore slope.  In this middle school mathematics lesson, students analyze and interpret graphs as they investigate slope as a rate of change.  Students use a motion detector to collect data as they walk at different...

Students investigate the pH of a liquid.  In this middle school mathematics/science lesson, students collect and analyze data regarding the pH of various liquids.  Students display their data in various types of graphs as they...

Learners write an equation for a linear function. For this algebra lesson, students collect data, plot it and graph it. They identify the equation of the graphed data and define the slope and y-intercept of the graph.

In this algebra worksheet, 11th graders graph parabolas using the vertex and axis of symmetry. They apply parabolas to word problems as it applies to paths taken. There are 4 problems with an answer key.

Students work in collaborative teams with specific roles, use the Internet to research the behavior and ecology of pikas, make predictions about survival rates of pikas in different habitats and organize their data in graphs.

Young scholars find forecast and graph weather by using WeatherBug site, create flower books by using Wiggleworks, and plant radish seeds both on KidPix and in class garden.

Learners investigate a possible health problem in the local school district through inquiry into attendance records, activities, maps, graphs, and data tables. The simulation continues as solutions for the problem are sought.

Students observe two rocket science experiments, and create a graph to demonstrate the results. They draw a picture and write an explanation of the results of the experiments.

Students conduct an experiment to determine the percentage of sugar in various types of gum. They weigh the gum after chewing it to determine the amount of mass lost from each piece of gum, analyze the data, and create a graph of the...

Students in second grade are paired with fifth grade computer research buddies. They observe the characteristics of caterpillars, and identify the four stages of the caterpillar to butterfly life cycle. They graph the number of...

Sixth graders read about and study motion. They conduct a lab in which they calculate speed using track records at their school. They graph the results and then invite a guest speaker (an officer from the local police department) who...

Students import UNEP World population data/projections from either the World Population Prospects: The 2002 Revision Population Database - UN Population Division or a text file. They graph this data by itself, and then along with...

Students explore the uniqueness of each person's individual body. They identify traits and characteristics of the human body, with a main focus on the uniqueness of fingerprints and footprints. Students examine and compare fingerprints....

Learners observe the effect "El Nino" left on kelp plants and sea urchins. They analyze the data collected by researchers, by graphing it on a TI calculator. Before graphing and analyzing the data, you may want to revisit the events of...

Students study exponential decay and its application to radiocarbon dating. In this exponential decay lesson, students use candy to model the time it takes for something to decay. Students also graph the data they collect and...
