Today we started Linear Regression, so the students gathered data on tongue twisters. They time how long it takes to say the tongue twister up to 8 times. I love this lab because it always causes some giggling fits, but it also gives some very linear data and is a great introduction to what the slope really means.
How does this work? Do you give them the twister? or to they choose their own? Does It really matter?
ReplyDeleteI gave them some to choose from or they could use their own favorite. It doesn't really matter as long as they use the same twister for all of their data.
