  1. How do you figure out if doing more homework means getting a higher test grade? I fixed the animation. Two rules of thumb: All images “fade” in (see tutorial on animation) All letters appear letter-by-letter the first time. Should I do my homework?

  2. In this lesson you will learn how to interpret a scatter plotby identifying clusters and outliers.

  3. 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 Test score 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Homework completed

  4. Where are the clusters and outliers? 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Letters in Last Name 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Homework completed

  5. 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 Test score These points form a tight cluster in an upward pattern. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Homework completed

  6. So, homework and tests scores ARE related!! 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 Test score 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Homework completed

  7. 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 Test score This point is an outlier. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Homework completed

  8. Possible reasons for this outlier…. I get nervous when I test. I can’t remember how many assignments I did. I don’t really understand.

  9. Yes! Doing more homework means getting a higher test grade MOST of the time! The clusters tell me that I should do my homework!

  10. In this lesson you learned how to interpret scatter plots by identifying clusters and outliers.

  11. Circle and describe the pattern of the cluster of points in this graph. Box any outliers if found. 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 Test score 1 2 3 4 5 Hours watching TV

  12. Survey 10 people and construct your own scatter plot with the results. Look for any clusters and explain your findings. Box an outlier(s). Give possible reasons for the outlier(s).

  13. Find a data table in your local newspaper that compares two pieces of data. Construct a scatter plot using the data found. Look for any clusters and explain your findings. Box an outlier(s). Give possible reasons for the outlier(s).

  14. Identify the outlier in the graph. Give possible reasons for the outlier. 20 18 16 14 12 10 8 6 4 2 Dollars on gift card 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Number of songs downloaded
