Interpret the map, or model, to find patterns in the occurrence of tropical cyclones from 1842 through 2018.
Students interpret a double bar/column chart comparing the number of tropical cyclones in different locations.
Interpret a scatter plot to find patterns in the number of tropical cyclones from 1842 to 2018.
Learners will analyze and interpret a box plot and evaluate the spread of the data. Learners will compare it with a different visualization of the data to see how the two compare, discuss the limitations of the two types of data displays and formulate questions.
The purpose of this lesson is for students to compare data displays to determine which best answers the driving question. To do this they will evaluate the spread of the data and what the displays show.
Using various visualizations (i.e., images, charts, and graphs), students will explore the energy exchange that occurs when hurricanes extract heat energy from the ocean. This story map is intended to be used with students who have access to a computing device in a 1:1 or 1:2 setting.
