*We are assuming that all students have a personal lap-top to use in the classroom.

Students will use a program called Fathom 2 to complete lesson 2. They will learn to import data from different sources into Fathom for analysis purposes. They learn to make tables and graphs within the program to help them look for patterns and make conjectures.

Here is a sample of what student graphs should look like for this particular lesson.

* Students will have much more data than shown in this example.

 

 

Through the use of this program, students should become more comfortable with using technology to analyze data. Visual representations of data are readily available with the use of this program.
