Grade 8 Data Management Survey Project

Part 1 - Create a survey on Google Docs and send it to at least 20 of your classmates.

Create a survey of 5 questions. Two of your questions must ask students to enter numerical data; e.g., how tall are you in cm? How many minutes do you study before a Math test?

The numerical data should be relate. If the data does not have a relationship, the scatter plot will make little sense.

Part 2 - Once you have your data, create 3 graphs:

A scatter plot
A histogram
A double bar graph

Please refer to the reference handout received in class.

Please copy and paste your tables and graphs into a word document. Please format the document so it is aesthetically pleasing.

Part 3 - Analyze your data

For one set of your numerical data, find the mean, median and mode. Explain how you found this data.

Describe any relationship that is evident when looking at the scatter plot. Make a conclusion based on this graph.

Make a conclusion about your histogram and double-bar graph as well.

Conclusions that are insightful and detailed will achieve higher levels.
