Data Handling 2 (do students spend most of their free time on the computer?) Sean and Aston



Hypothesis: Students spend most of their time on the computer.
Statistical measures: Percentages
Observations: The overall results were a little scattered when we grouped the amount of free time from lowest to highest. Overall, there is no real trend line though it is a fact that when students have more free time, they also spend more time on the computer.
I have posted two graphs here, one from Autograph and one from Excel (forgive me Mr Turner!)
Please check if they graphs relate to our findings.
Evaluation: The graph from Autograph could be more detailed and a little more clear. I used an Excel graph but this was only to reinforce our observations.

    I get your point but what is your conclusion? Is this hypothesis true of false?

    these graphs are good and they show alot of info but i do need to give comment thingys...so you should add axis labels (its important!)

    The conclusion seems somewhat, short. And btw, your autogragh diagram is kind of hard to see.

    I agree with Alyssa you excell graph wasnt labeled therefore your results were useless as we had no idea what the plotted points ment. however your autograph graph was really cool and accurate.

    Jason is correct, the autograoh thing is hard to see and your conclusion is limited.

    I agree with aylssa's comment. It is improtant to label your axis.
    Also i think the you should draw a line of best fit in your line graph that you did in autograph. it would be easier of us to see.
    And finally your conclusion is kind of short and doesnt answer your Hypothesis.

    Your autograph graph is a bit unclear because in the excel graph it shows that you asked 17 people, but in the autograph graph there are only 11 dots?
