This class is intended to teach aspiring young scientists and data analysts how to present experimental data in scientific tables - an essential skill for middle or high school classes on graphing skills, data analysis, or experimental science. Learners will watch a video (27 mins), which covers: - A brief review of scientific variables (independent, dependent, and control variables). - How to structure a scientific data table. - Important conventions, e.g. where to write units, levels of accuracy in data, etc. - Identifying anomalies in data, and how to deal with anomalous results. - How to calculate the mean (average) and present it in a data table. Throughout the video tutorial, students are prompted to practice, using worked examples from real-life experiments to spot mistakes and construct tables correctly. To accompany this, they will also receive detailed notes, complete a worksheet (answer sheet also provided), and do a summary quiz. In total, the learning time is anticipated to be around 1.5 hours. My teaching style is very structured and methodical, with everything broken down step-by-step with multiple examples to help learners follow along. This class is short and focused, to maximise learning within a bite-sized timeframe. As this is a self-paced class, please be aware that there is no face-to-face interaction. However, learners will instead receive automated assessment in the quiz and send me a picture of their completed worksheet for personal feedback.
Draw data tables correctly according to scientific convention.State where to position the independent variable, dependent variable, and units in a data table. This class introduces scientific data tables, including many examples from real-life experiments. We will learn how to present data in a table (according to scientific convention), calculate the mean (average), and identify anomalies. After watching the video (27 mins) and completing a quiz, you will then put this into practice with the detailed step-by-step worksheet and / or your own experimental data. A five-page PDF (combining summary notes and worksheet questions) is provided, which learners can print out to complete.

This is a very good class, and my only complaint is that it could use...
