Information to Remember as You Write Your Data Processing & Presentation

 

This section deals with showing which calculations are used to process raw data and then presenting finished data (in either tables or graphs).

Tables & Graphs of Processed Results

Consider the following to help writing this section:

Tables of averaged IV and DV results that will be graphed. Include the word "average" as part of your title.

Graph: Displays averaged data. Includes a descriptive title and labels and units for both axes.

Use a key on the graph to note anything the viewer may not identify on their own.

Use a best fit line where necessary.

A description of what the graph shows might assist interpretation of the graph.

Extra help with Graphs.

Calculations (shows processing of raw data):

Show any formulas or equations used & 1 example using your data of how to solve each formula.

Mathematical processing that might be used include: standard deviation, coefficient of variance, slope, % change, etc. Choose your equations based upon what you understand how to do. Seek help from your teacher if needed!

Extra help with Standard Deviation.
