Great project after your first statistics unit learning about univariate data. This project has students research online and collect temperature data from your city and compares it to temperature data of another city. This project implements the use of technology (spreadsheets or stapplet.com) to produce visuals and graphs. Rubric/grading guidelines included. This project takes: ~2 block schedules ~3-4 45 minute classes

Use this project/task to have fun with your students and have them put on the hat of a statistician to collect their own quantitative data (1-variable), then determine if it is a normal distribution by looking at the histogram, calculating the Pearson Index of Skewness, and checking for outliers. Once they have determined the normality they can compute some interesting statistics about their dataset! Students love this task because they get to pick the topic of their data and go out and collect
