What is data?
Data is the information we collect from our investigation. Data often comes in charts and often includes both variables from
the experiment.
It’s how scientists communicate their findings and give
proof of their discoveries.
To work a graph:
· Highlight all titles
· Read at least one row across and one column down
You
must do this! It gives you a good understanding of what is happening in the
chart.
·
Summarize the type of information that the graph contains (NOT SPECIFICS)
