Chemistry: Accuracy, Precision, & Measurement-Print/Digital |Distance Learning
Updated: Now includes print and digital options for the lesson. Perfect for distance learning or the paperless classroom. Interactive student notes, exit ticket, and homework for Google Slides™. In this complete lesson, students will differentiate between accuracy and precision. Accuracy will be related to percentage error, and precision is related to the precision of the measuring instrument. Students will accurately record measurements for mass, liquid volume, temperature, and length. A class

Accuracy and Precision Lab: Paper Toss
Make learning accuracy and precision fun with this accuracy and precision paper toss lab. This low prep lab is a great way to teach your students to define accuracy and precision by having them attempt to throw ten paper balls into a trash can at distances of 1 meter, 2 meters, and 3 meters. Your secondary students will love teaming up to record their shots made, their shots attempted, and their shots missed. From their data collected, they will calculate their group’s percent accuracy to determ

ACCURACY & PRECISION LAB: (Significant Digits, aka: Significant Figures)
There would seem to be nothing, that strikes more fear into the hearts of young science students more than the mention of significant digits, aka significant figures. I think that’s in part due to the fact that students don’t see the practical application of these internationally accepted rules for recording the accuracy and precision of data and results. Here, I think, is a great lab to help students understand how and wh

Precision, Accuracy and Significant Figures in Measurement Activity
I have taught significant figures for years because I was told to teach it. It wasn’t until I developed this activity that I felt like I was able to better show students what significant figures mean in terms of precision and measurement. It also helps distinguish between precision & accuracy, as those terms get confused all of the time! In part 1, students use fake rulers to measure various lines and discuss precision and accuracy. Student then use the information to come up with definitions

Students practice identifying scenarios as accurate and/or/nor precise by repeatedly dropping pennies onto a target. Very easy to conduct and many possible extensions can be done with it- vary the height, change the person dropping the penny, etc. Who was most accurate? Who was most precise? Who was both? Who was neither? Create a classroom discussion of student results and attempt to identify how/why some students

Scientific Measurement Lab: Accuracy, Precision & Density
Great introductory lab to build student confidence and lab orientation skills. This three-station hands-on lab teaches scientific measurement through actual measurements: mass on two balances (triple-beam vs. analytical, but digital may be substituted if needed), volume from three different beakers, and density by water displacement of an irregular metal object. Students collect three trials per station, compute mean and range, and decide whether each tool is accurate, precise, both, or neither.
