Exploring Data Visualization in Math Education

This chapter focuses on the construction and understanding of bar charts, pie charts, and scatter graphs within an inquiry-based learning framework. It highlights the collaborative and innovative nature of student interactions in a mixed attainment Year 7 math classroom, where learners engage deeply with data representation. The discussion also emphasizes the importance of guiding students to distinguish between different types of graphs, fostering a richer understanding of mathematical concepts through collaborative exploration.
