Interpretation and analysis of data and graphs related to socio-cultural issues
Lesson details
Learning outcome
I can interpret and analyse data and graphs related to socio-cultural issues.
Key learning points
- Data is factual information gathered about the context being studied.
- Analysing social-cultural trends to identify what ethical issues are present in sport.
- Data can be presented as numbers or graphs.
Keywords
X axis - the horizontal axis on a bar or line graph
Y axis - the vertical axis on a bar or line graph
Pie chart - a circular graph divided into sectors, each representing a proportion of the whole
Bar chart - a chart or graph that presents categorical data with rectangular bars with heights or lengths proportional to the values that they represent
Common misconception
Pupils can often confuse the x and y axis and therefore not read the correct x axis information.
On a bar or line graphs pupils should get into the habit of physically going along the bottom to read the information along the x axis.
Teacher tip
Include your own examples of data from sports in the media or relevant to the context of your school and learners.
