Survey taking

This math survey at TeacherLed.com is a fantastic example of the math resources you can find at this site. Although it has only four surveys, and is not an application that you can edit, it acts as an excellent demonstration. It is very smooth and easy to use with no preparation. Here is the write-up for this activity.

Conduct a class survey from your interactive whiteboard. Demonstrate the use of tallies and frequency charts. Immediately generate a pie chart and bar chart from your results and compare how useful they are in presenting data. Random data can also be generated.

To create the tally marks, just click in the table cell and the tallies will appear. Click on the x to remove a tally. Choose from the four topics down the left hand side, put in your tally marks and then click to display as a pie chart or bar graph.

I found a Pentomino game designed for the SMART Board on the same site. Browse the sidebar at TeacherLed for more math and spelling resources.
