Additional material to help with recording results from enquires.
if you are planning for you students to collect some experimental data you might like to watch the following sequence of videos that show a South African teacher preparing her students to draw a graph of some data.
video 1 - making sure everyone understands the table

- Why does the teacher remind the students of what they had done previously?
- What are the benefits to the students of the teacher drawing the table on the chalk board?
- Do you think it was a good idea to leave the table blank? Why?
The teacher reminds the students of work they had done on this enquiry in a previous lesson. She has planned for the students to do quite a lot of graph drawing as part of this enquiry on exponentials.
Add some videos of Pindi describing in detail how to draw up and fill in results table. Include a student completed worksheet (measuring pulse rate) for critique.
