Abstract

Students have difficulties in representing and interpreting data (e.g., Garfield & Ben-Zvi, 2008; Lem, Onghena, Verschaffel, & van Dooren, 2013). Drawing a graph is a first step in interpreting data (Garfield & Ben-Zvi, 2008). The aim of our research was therefore to explore how students can learn to make appropriate graphs that can support valid inferences from large data sets.
