Getting organised: The role of data organisation in students' representation of numerical data.
Abstract
This paper explores the role of organising data in representing numerical data in an
organised way – a skill which does not come naturally to most students. Grade 6 children
were given a series of lessons on organising data and then representing the data
graphically. It was found that after instruction, more students were able to reorganise the
data and produce an organised graph.
