K-12:
- Have students look through the data and propose new relationships.
- Students can extend their analysis by adding countries to the list. Ask
students if the relationship changes (and why) as more countries are added.
Methods:
- Students use databases to develop factual and comprehension level understanding
of information. This level of database usage is based on Beverly Hunter's
taxonomy of database use (Hunter, 1987). Discuss the different types of databases
as outlined by Hunter (1987).
