Graphing in Robotics 8) Catalyst: Name as many types of graphs as you can!
Agenda • Graphing in Robotics • Graphing Practice
Useful Abbreviations • Manipulated Variable (MV) – The variable in the investigation that is being changed. • Responding Variable (RV) – The variable in the investigation that is being measured. • TAILS – Title, Axes, Intervals, Labels, Scale
Objective • NGSS (1) Communicate data through tables and graphs. (2) Create appropriate graphs based on data.
What are the parts of a graph? Title Y-axis X-axis
What are the parts of a graph? X-axis = MV
What are the parts of a graph? Y-axis = RV X-axis = MV
What are the parts of a graph? Title = RV vs. MV Y-axis = RV X-axis = MV
TAILS ✔ list • Title – Does your title have the RV and MV in the correct order? • Axes – Do you have the manipulated and responding variables on the appropriate axes. • Intervals – Are the axes evenly spaced out and not crowded? • Labels – Are the axes labeled with units (cm, L, s, kg, etc.)? • Scale – Does your data fit your entire graph?
Quick Practice (Left Page) Copy this table down and create a line graph for it!
Graph Types Vs.
Graph Types Line Graph - Use when the MV changes amount (day #, amount of fertilizer, etc)
Graph Types Bar Graph - Use when the MV changes type (person name, color of flower, etc.)
