PROJECT PLANNING TEMPLATE for CLIL and Content-Rich Environments IDENTIFICATION Project teaching sequence DEVELOP STATISTICAL STUDY TITLE AUTHOR(S) Jordina Bartolomé Mateu With the support of Jack Roche (English language assistant) COE Level High School Grade 3 rd grade of ESO Content areas Mathematics, Computer Technology, English Number of sessions 6 Teacher(s) involved Jordina Bartolomé (Mathematics and Computer Technology teacher), Jack Roche (English language assistant) Key words Statistic study: surveys, statistic parameters, tables and graphics.
INTRODUCTION TO THE PROJECT TEACHING SEQUENCE Sometimes, in our environment, we are supposed to take some decisions: for example, imagine that in your class you are planning to do a final course trip; but you don t know where you all prefer to go. Another situation could be that in our neighborhood, the City Hall wants to build a new sports pavilion, but they are not sure which sports tracks are better to construct. In some occasions, to choose the best option, it s really necessary that we know the others opinion! These situations might us need to develop a statistical study, so we can analyze the results and take the best decisions. Driving question: How can we determine people s opinion? GOALS Students might have to: 1. Discuss, share opinions and reach an agreement to decide a topic to make a statistical study. 2. Create and carry out a interview, using the proper statistics variables and parameters. 3. Ask questions to different people in English and show an active listening attitude. 4. Read into the answers or responses of the interviews and organize the collected data. 5. Create a statistic table to organize the different data, and apply properly the different formulas to obtain other needed data. 6. Create a statistical table to organize the different data, and apply properly the different formulas to obtain other needed data. HOW DO YOU KNOW STUDENTS ARE MAKING PROGRESS? Teacher will measure if the goal has been assumed by: 1. Approve the survey theme focusing on why it is interesting to study. Check if the students have thought about it. 2. Make sure they have written the right different types of questions in the survey, recognizing the different statistical parameters. 3. Find out if the student is able to communicate in English, explaining what are they doing to the people interviewed. 4. Check if the student understands the answers given and can catalogue and categorize the data obtained. 5. Inquire whether the student creates a proper statistical table in Excel, and applies and calculates the statistical formulas. 6. Inquire whether the student creates a proper statistical table in Excel, and applies and calculates the statistics formulas.
7. Create some statistical graphics, using in each case the most convenient type. 8. Analyze the data, the graphics and the results obtained and draw conclusions. 9. Make a presentation, talking in front of the class and explaining your work. 7. Search if the student know how to create a graphic, and if he choose the most appropriated for each case, 8. Inquire whether the student is able to interpret the graphics obtained and analyze the results, writing their own conclusions. 9. See if the student can communicate their ideas in English, speaking about the conclusions and explaining them in front of the class. FINAL PRODUCT What is the final product? Oral exposition by groups, with a digital support presentation (Power Point, Prezi, video, etc) of all the process of their statistical study and the interpretation and explanation of the results. KEY COMPETENCES 1 Linguistic communication 2 Cultural awareness and expression 3 Digital competence 4 Mathematical 5 Learning to learn 6 Sense of initiative and entrepreneurship 7 Interaction with the physical world 8 Social and civic competences

LEARNING DIARY SESSION 1
LEARNING DIARY SESSION 1 INTRODUCTION TO THE PROJECT Sometimes, in our environment, we are supposed to take some decisions: for example: Imagine that in your class you are planning to do a final course trip; but you don t know where you all prefer to go Another situation could be that in our neighborhood, the Major Hall wants to build a new sports pavilion, but they are not sure which sports tracks are better to construct In some occasions, to choose the best option, it s really necessary that we know the others opinion! This situations might us need to develop a statistical study, so we can analyze the results and take the best decisions. The first thing we need to do is decide How can we determine people s opinion? First of all, let s define our group: GROUP MEMBERS Student 1: Student 2: Student 3: Student 4: ROLES DISTRIBUTION Each session, you will need to distribute different roles in your group. You must decide who is going to be the student: Secretary: write down what has been done and decided in class, and, if it s necessary, what we have to finish at home or what remains for the next day. Student in charge of assessing: each session, one of you will need to evaluate the other members of the group and their individual and collaborative work. CONCEPTS AND VOCABULARY REVISION
LEARNING DIARY SESSION 1 Before we start our statistical study, it would be great to revise the concepts that we already know and the different vocabulary in English: - Statistical process: - What and who do we want to study? - Variables selection: what are we going to ask and analyze? - Data collection: asking questions in a survey or questioner. - Data organization, using: - Tables - Graphics - Parameter calculation - Population: set off all elements of our study - Sample: subset, extracted of the population - Individual: each element of the population or sample DAY BY DAY WORK Secretary) (fill in by the Today, the secretary has been: We have to decide: STATISTICAL PROCESS: 1. What do we want to do the statistical study about? 2. Who is going to be the Population for the study: 3. Who is going to be the Sample for the study: GLOSSARY Here you have some space to write the vocabulary that you have use today. For those words that you don t know, you might search their meaning:

LEARNING DIARY SESSION 2
LEARNING DIARY SESSION 2 CONCEPTS AND VOCABULARY REVISION Today, we are going focus our attention on the second step of the statistical process: - Statistical process: - What and who do we want to study? - Variables selection: what are we going to ask and analyze? - Data collection: asking questions in a survey or questioner. - Data organization, using: - Tables - Graphics - Parameter calculation Remember the different types of: - Statistical variables: - Quantitative: Discreet: isolated numerical values Continuous: numerical values in a range - Qualitative: no numerical values When you write a survey, the first questions could be about the gender or the age of the person, so you would be able to classify the population or the sample that has taken part of the study. For example: 1) Mark in the appropriate box: male female 2) How old are you? 0-15 16-30 31-45 45-60 more than 60 (Notice that the answer for the first question is a qualitative variable, but the answer to the second one is a quantitative continuous variable.) Now it s time to elaborate your survey: How do we do that?? - First of all, think together and decide what you want to know, what is important and what is not. - Write it down in a draft (you can type it on the computer later). - Write around 8/10 questions, so it would not be so long. - Try to give selection boxes for the answers, so they will be quicker to classify at the end of the process. - Realize the different types of statistical variables for the answers, so it would be easy to decide which graphic is the most appropriate to use to represent each question. - Finally, you can type in the computer your survey, so we have it ready to print as many copies as we need.

LEARNING DIARY SESSION 3
LEARNING DIARY SESSION 3 CONCEPTS AND VOCABULARY REVISION Before we start our statistical study, it would be great to revise the concepts that we already know and the different vocabulary in English: - Statistical process: - What and who do we want to study? - Variables selection: what are we going to ask and analyze? - Data collection: asking questions in a survey or questioner. - Data organization, using: - Tables - Graphics - Parameter calculation Now we get to the best part: interview people! - Previously, you have decided how many you would need to interview (sample of your study). - Before you start interviewing someone, you have to briefly explain what is the survey about, and why are you doing it. - You can organize the members of you group in different roles (and you can change them in every interview): the presenter: he/she explain what s the survey about the reporter: he/she asks the questions the secretary: he/she write down the answers the camera man: he/she records the interview - You have to video record at least 4 interviews (one done for each member of the group). - You can interview you classmates and teachers during this class. However, you may need to finish the other surveys out of the school. You have a whole week to do it. - You can divide the surveys between the members of the group, so everyone report the same amount of questioners.

LEARNING DIARY SESSION 4-5
LEARNING DIARY SESSION 4-5 CONCEPTS AND VOCABULARY REVISION Last step of the statistical process consist in organize the data in frequency tables, calculate the parameters and create graphics: - Statistical process: - What and who do we want to study? - Variables selection: what are we going to ask and analyze? - Data collection: asking questions in a survey or questioner. - Data organization, using: - Tables - Parameter calculation - Graphics For that, we are going to use EXCEL, so we can easily create different tables and make the program calculate the parameters for us! First of all, check your class notes and review the different parameters that appear in a frequency table: - Frequency table: - x i : variable values - Value range : interval of values - Class brand : the central value of an interval - f i : absolute frequency - h i : relative frequency (%) - ẍ : median - σ : typical deviation For each question of your survey, you may need to create a table in EXCEL similar to this one: range values xi fi fi xi fi xi² 153,5 to 158,5 156 5 780 121680 158,5 to 163,5 161 11 1771 285131 163,5 to 168,5 166 14 2324 385784 168,5 to 173,5 171 5 855 146205 654 35 5730 938800 xi fi fi xi fi xi² median ẍ = fi xi / fi 163,71 typical deviation σ = ( fi xi² / fi) - ẍ² 4,53
LEARNING DIARY SESSION 4-5 - Parameter calculation: You will need to read and view the surveys and collect the data, organize it in Excel and calculate the parameters. Once you have each table created and filled, you can elaborate a graphic to make more understandable the results of each question. Remember that, depending on the type of answers (statistical variables) it s better for you to use one kind of graphic or another: - Graphics types: 3 2 1 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 5 Bars diagram histogram 3 2 1 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 Frequency polygon 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 Frequency 10% 8% 23% 59% Sectors diagram Project presentation: While two of the members of the team are working on the data organization, the other two can work on the project presentation: - Decide which digital support use for the presentation (Prezy, Power Point, Excel, Windows movie Maker, ) - Prepare the presentation explaining all the process to develop the survey: - Explain which is your statistical study topic or theme (what is the survey about) - Show an example of your questioner, and some of the videos of the interviews. - Explain the tables and graphics created for each question. - Interpret and analyze the results obtained, and write conclusions. - Give your personal opinion of the whole project.

LEARNING DIARY SESSION 6
LEARNING DIARY SESSION 6 FINAL PRESENTATION Finally, each group of students will present in front of the class your statistical study. Remember: - You have ten minutes to do your presentation - Every member of the group must speak more or less the same amount of time. - The class is your audience, so speak to them and look at them, not to the teacher. - Try to communicate your ideas in English (explain your work in a simple way) - Speak slowly, clearly and laud, so everybody can listen and understand. - Explain the results obtained and your conclusions - Give opinions at the end. STUDENT S SELF-ASSESSMENT For the final presentation, I would like you to evaluate individually the other group presentations: What are we evaluating? GROUP ASSESSMENT: - Content: Can you identify the different parts (questionnaire, tables and graphics)? - Comprehension: Is the Statistical Study comprehensible and organize, or is it confusing? Did they explain the study completely, or did you notice any part missing? - Conclusions: Did they get into some conclusions? Did they expose them clearly? INDIVIDUAL EVALUATION: - Speaking and pronunciation: Is English used in a correct way (use appropriate verbs tense and vocabulary)? Is he/she speaking high and clearly and pronouncing the words appropriately? Did he/she learn his/her part of the text or is he/she constantly reading? Does he/she look at the audience while he/she is speaking? Complete the next grids for every group, giving punctuation from 1 to 5: Note that each student final mark will be the total group mark plus the individual mark (it can go from 4 to 20 points).
