Although science, government, and news organizations have long used graphs to illustrate trends and significant relationships among variables, such applications came to a climax during the COVID-19 pandemic. Few real-life graphs are linear, so students need practice in interpreting them to grow into informed citizens.
Develop an original response to the following prompts:
Locate or develop a nonlinear graph of data illustrating a complex relationship (polynomial, rational, exponential, harmonic, or other relationship) which might be interesting to middle school students. (Do not use bar or circle graphs.) Some possible resources are provided on the Learning Objects page, or you can consult other web resources.
Take a screenshot or copy the image of the graph, and insert it into your original response. Include an APA citation of the source of the data or graph.
Write four questions you would pose to students to have them analyze and reason about the relationships represented by the graph.
Articulate what you would consider suitable student responses to your questions.
