Writing the results section

Use lab write to guide the writing of the results section of your lab


Use the remainder of the period to write the results section of your lab.  Upon completion ask a member of your lab group to review your results section using this rubric.



Visualizing the data from the video game lab

Upon completion of the testing  please do the following

1. Make sure all members of your lab group have entered their data
2.Graph the data collected from your group
3. Graph the class data



If you need help creating the graphs please go to labwrite.




5. Visualizing the data:

Now that you have entered your data in a table or spreadsheet, you are ready to represent your data in the appropriate visual format for your lab report.
  • Establish what types of data you have, quantitative or qualitative (refer to the Resources page in the web version of this document; once there, choose "Data Types").
  • Determine if the data should be represented as a table or a graph (refer to the Resources page in the web version of this document; once there, choose "Tables vs. Graphs").
  • If you decide to use a graph to represent your data, determine which type of graph is one that best represents your data (refer to the Resources page in the web version of this document; once there, choose "Graph Types").
  • If a table is the best format for your data, then modify the table you used to collect your data so that it is labeled and organized properly (refer to the Resources page in the web version of this document; once there, choose "Designing Tables").
  • If you need help creating a spreadsheet to make a table or graph, refer to the Resources page in the web version of this document. Once there, choose "Excel Tutorial."
  • Remember that the purpose of your table or graph is to summarize your findings for yourself and for others and to reveal trends in your data.
