Description
A normal distribution curve is better known as the Bell Curve. The information in the curve represents information that occurs naturally. This information is things like test scores or people’s height. A normal distribution curve is a statistical tool. It uses other statistical methods. These include Mean, Mode, and Median. Mean is another term for average. This exercise uses data from NOAA. The curve in the lesson represents the earthquake Magnitudes as collected by NOAA. NOAA is the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. I would use this lesson in combination with Earth Science and the study of Earthquakes. The lesson includes various technology skills used in Google Spreadsheets. You can skip the steps regarding the query of the data. The sample includes a separate sheet where the data has already been queried. Use that sheet to work through the creation of the normal distribution curve.
