摘要: Abstract Current educational reform calls for increased integration between science and mathematics to overcome the shortcomings in students' quantitative skills. Data Nuggets (free online resource, http://datanuggets.org) are worksheets that bring data into classroom, repeatedly guiding students through scientific method making claims based on evidence. Created around recent ongoing research, provide background a scientist their study system, along with real set from research. We demonstrate use of classroom share lesson challenges answer question, support claim, guides them construction graphs facilitate interpretation. can be used across K—16 grades multiple times throughout school year as build
