Graphing in Robotics 8) Catalyst: Name as many types of graphs as you can! Slide 2 Agenda Graphing in Robotics Graphing Practice Slide 3 Useful Abbreviations Manipulated Variable (MV) The variable in the investigation that is being changed. Responding Variable (RV) The variable in the investigation that is being measured. TAILS Title, Axes, Intervals, Labels, Scale Slide 4 Objective NGSS (1) Communicate data through tables and graphs. (1) Communicate data through tables and graphs. (2) Create appropriate graphs based on data. Slide 5 Graphing in Science 10.06.2015.. Slide 6 What are the parts of a graph? Slide 7 Title X-axis Y-axis Slide 8 Graphing in Science 10.06.2015 Graph Parts Title Y-Axis | | |__________________________ X-axis Slide 9 What are the parts of a graph? X-axis = MV Slide 10 What are the parts of a graph? X-axis = MV Y-axis = RV Slide 11 What are the parts of a graph? X-axis = MV Y-axis = RV Title = RV vs. MV Title = RV vs. MV Slide 12 Graphing in Robotics 10.06.2015 Graph Parts Title Y-Axis | | |__________________________ X-axis - X-axis = Manipulated Variable (ex: Day #) - Y-axis = Responding Variable (ex: Amount of Rain in cm) - Title = RV vs. MV (ex: Amount of Rain vs. Day #) Slide 13 Example Average Weekly Television Watching in Hours % Students Turning in HW 398 480 5.460 7.540 820 Slide 14 What is the Manipulated Variable? Average Weekly Television Watching in Hours % Students Turning in HW 398 480 5.460 7.540 820 Slide 15 What is the Responding Variable? Average Weekly Television Watching in Hours % Students Turning in HW 398 480 5.460 7.540 820 Slide 16 What would the title of the graph be? Average Weekly Television Watching in Hours % Students Turning in HW 398 480 5.460 7.540 820 Slide 17 Example Average Weekly Television Watching in Hours % Students Turning in HW 398 480 5.460 7.540 820 Slide 18 TAILS list 1.Title Does your title have the RV and MV in the correct order? 2.Axes Do you have the manipulated and responding variables on the appropriate axes. 3.Intervals Are the axes evenly spaced out and not crowded? 4.Labels Are the axes labeled with units (cm, L, s, kg, etc.)? 5.Scale Does your data fit your entire graph? Slide 19 Graphing in Robotics 10.06.2015 Graph List 1.Data in correct location 2.Axes labeled with units (cm, L, s, kg, etc.) 3.Axes evenly spaced out 4.Accurate title 5.Correct graph type Slide 20 Quick Practice (Left Page) Copy this table down and create a line graph for it! Fertilizer Amount in (mg) - MV Plant Height in (cm) - RV 510 13 15 20 Slide 21 Quick Practice (Left Page) Fertilizer Amount in (mg) - MV Plant Height in (cm) - RV 510 13 15 20 Slide 22 Graph Types Vs. Slide 23 Line Graph - Use when the MV changes amount (day #, amount of fertilizer, etc) Slide 24 Graphing in Robotics 10.06.2015 Graph Types - Line Graph - Use when the MV changes amount (day #, amount of fertilizer, etc) Slide 25 Graph Types Bar Graph - Use when the MV changes type (person name, color of flower, etc.) Slide 26 Graphing in Science 09.09.2008 Graph Types -Line Graph - Use when the MV changes amount (day #, amount of fertilizer, etc) -Bar Graph - Use when the MV changes type (person name, color of flower, etc.) Slide 27 Summary Take 3 minutes to write a summary of todays notes!
