\n

Teachers engage in exploratory data analysis to examine national school expenditure data using CODAP and consider how the use of a technology tool affects the teaching and learning of data analysis techniques. They also compare distributions using the same data set. Finally, teachers explore measures of center using interactive applets and consider how the technology affects students\u2019 learning.<\/p>\n<\/div>
