Statistics

17/06/11. Jarod you have still not completed what was required of you. You have not told me how to find the average person in the class. You needed to come and see me if you were confused or ask one of the students that has completed it correctly. I put up examples on the class wiki of others students work so there are no excuses for you not to have completed this work. __Digits and Dividers__ __**FIND THE AVERAGE PERSON IN OUR CLASS**__

LI :I am learning to use my statistic knowledge to find the average person in our class

SC :To be successful I will need to use some of the following:


 * tally chart
 * stem and leaf graph
 * bar graph √
 * pie chart √
 * pictogram
 * histogram
 * mean √
 * median √
 * mode √
 * discrete data √
 * continuous data √
 * write 3 statements about each graph.

Your task is to find out who the average person in our is. You must **always** analyse your graphs and data, and make sure this analysis is evident.

To do this task you will be using **discrete data** and **only one continuous data.**

Below brainstorm as a group what discrete and continuous data you could use to help you find who the average person is in our class. Highlight all of your discrete data yellow, and continuous data green.

13/06/2011. Jarod where is all of your maths and data results? Your task was to find the average person in room 29 and you were given two weeks to complete this. I am not happy about this and I expect to see it by Friday you will need to do it for homework. You are not even doing you work correctly!! You need to upload the task from the class wiki and read over it again.
