        Project- State Economy Chart

Evaluating the Project- State Economy Chart

      (Using Spreadsheet)

Through this lesson plan students will learn

·        How to research using appropriate websites and search engines,

·        Learn the use of pie charts and other graphical methods

·        Learn how to use the technology (Spreadsheet) to Collect, Store, and Present the data.

In this Project, students used the search engine/websites to find and collect the economy of different states by agriculture, services and industry. Using the Pie chart tool of the spread sheet they summarize and collect their data and presented in more visual/attractive manner.  Students also collaborated to refine and understand their projects.

In Mathematics classroom, Learning and using the chart is an important activity. In this world of technology, students are very creative and can use technology very efficiently. 

In grade level like 7^th or 8^th

•  Students can find/research about the Population/ Languages used/ Gender/nationality etc. of the Countries/States/Schools/Classroom and then they can present the data using different charts like Pie chart/bar chart etc.
•  This project can be enhanced or can be a yearlong project where students feed the data once in a month and present at the end of the year.
