STEM Fair Graphs

Data Tables Make sure your data tables include: A title Appropriate labels and SI units for both the dependent and independent variables Averages of data Your graphs should be a representation of the averages of your data! Not all the data that you collect!

What type of graph should I use to analyze my data?

Types of graphs Typically NOT USED for STEM projects Pie Chart Used to compare parts to a whole (percentages) Bar Graph compare values in a category or between categories. Multiple bar graphs compare relationships of closely related data sets. These graphs may be used to demonstrate relationships in non-continuous data or data intervals. Typically NOT USED for STEM projects

Types of Graphs Continued Time-Series Plot dependent variable is numerical and the independent variable is time XY Line Graph dependent and independent variables when both are numerical and the dependent variable is a function of the independent variable Scatter plot Shows how two variables MAY be related to one another

Why do I need error bars on my graph?

Error bars Show variability in data Indicate error and/or uncertainty in measurement A larger size error bar means the measurement/ data collected is not as accurate Error bars should be one standard deviation in length

What is the standard deviation?

Standard Deviation The most common means of measuring the amount of variation from the mean that exists for each experimental group. A low standard deviation indicates that the data points tend to be very close to the mean A high standard deviation indicates that the data points are spread out over a large range of values.

What is the coefficient of correlation (r)?

Coefficient of Correlation (r) used to fit a straight line (best-fit) to sample data to summarize the relationship between x and y values. Sample correlation coefficient (r) is calculated to measure the extent to which x and y are linearly related. Example would be looking at the relationship between % salinity in water (x) and nitrate level (y). Example of results would be that a simple linear regression model explained 91.3% of total variation in nitrate level by relating it to salinity

Coefficient of Correlation (r) Only use if graph is a line graph or scatterplot (not for time series) Describes the direction and strength of 2 sets of variables Calculate when the line of best fit is made on a graph in excel R Values Positive Correlation = Direct relationship for data Negative correlation = Indirect relationship for data r = 0, no correlation r < 0.5, weak correlation r > 0.8, strong correlation r = 1 perfect correlation

Coefficient of Correlation examples
