Overview

Charts are everywhere! They can be found in articles, textbooks, medical test results, and more.

The SABES Program Support and Math and Adult Numeracy C & I PD Centers are excited to partner for this session. The first hour will focus on helping students use their observations of relationships in a table and their knowledge of graphs to understand how to read and to create charts. You will experience the activity as a learner and hear about the background of the activity and its use in the curriculum. The presenter will demonstrate how to make a chart in Google Sheets, and you will have time to try out creating charts. In addition, you will have the opportunity to think together with the group how you might use a similar activity in your class.

The last half hour is reserved for your questions about other digital literacy, distance education, or blended learning topics. It will help us to prepare if you could please post your questions to our Coffee Hour Padlet by April 6.
