Seventh Grade Students’ Sense Making of Data and Data Representations

The paper describes 7th graders’ cooperative work on a data assessment task in a computerassisted environment. The task was administered at the end of a carefully designed Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) course. The purpose of the study is to assess students’ ability to make sense of data and their representations: a) use of data analysis skills, and understanding of basic statistical procedure...

Furthermore, the scientific committees of grant giving bodies need to acknowledge more readily...
