Integrate InspireData® Into Your CurriculumInspireData®'s multiple plot views give students many ways to investigate, analyze, and represent data and information, so they visualize data for science, mathematics, and social studies projects and assignments. Use these examples and resources to help you start using InspireData easily and effectively. Science In every step of scientific inquiry, students will benefit from InspireData. The dynamic nature of the tables and graphs gives students opportunities to test hypotheses, analyze data, draw conclusions and report results. Students and teachers collect data from lab experiments, the Internet, e-Surveys or use one of InspireData’s pre-collected science databases. As they create multiple plot types, students explore the best ways to investigate and represent their information. They can animate data in time series, compare data with Venn diagrams and create bar, stack, axis and pie charts. Students record their observations and report their results using the Notes and Slide Show features.
More science examples: Atomic Weight vs. Ionization Potential
Lesson plan samples: Exercise and the Heart
Math Math students use InspireData to understand, represent, interpret and compare data in tables and graphs. This builds essential understanding of core concepts including percent, measures of center, experimental and theoretical probability, algebraic relationships, correlation and line of best fit. Students and teachers use data from e-Surveys, the Internet, or the ready-to-use math databases. They can represent data in multiple plot forms, including line charts, bar charts, pictographs, histograms, line graphs, scatter plots, box plots, pie charts and Venn diagrams. With InspireData, it’s easy to display graphical solutions and record observations using the Notes and Slide Show tools.
More math examples: Box Plots
Lesson plan samples: Mean Versus Median
Social Studies In social studies, students use InspireData to understand patterns and relationships. Dynamic tables and graphs give students a visual way to analyze statistics, illustrate data sets and identify historical and economic [quantitative] trends. Students and teachers collect data from e-Surveys, library and Internet research, or one of the ready-to-use InspireData social studies databases. Students explore the best ways to represent and analyze their data by experimenting with multiple plot types. They can animate data in time series, compare data using Venn diagrams or create bar, stack, axis and pie charts. Students strengthen research skills by recording their observations and analyses using the Notes and Slide Show tools. | ||
