Designed for KS3 students, TinkerPlots brings an interactive dynamic dimension
to data explorations in maths and science classrooms!
TinkerPlots helps students see the connection between collecting
and analysing data and formulating and testing their own hypotheses.
TinkerPlots was developed by the Statistics Education Research
group (SERG) at the University of Massachusetts. The group's mission is to
better understand how people reason about probability, statistics and data
analysis, and to use this understanding to improve the teaching of these
topics.
Students use TinkerPlots to create colourful visual
representations of data - making sense out of numbers and recognising patterns
as they unfold. TinkerPlots' amazing computer learning environment
lets students learn by investigation. Download TinkerPlots leaflet.
