Skills

Learning Targets
- I can identify generalizations made from data gathered in an observational study, survey, or experiment. #dok1

Big Ideas
- Generalizations made from data are only as valid as the methods and reasoning used to produce them.
- Different types of studies—observational studies, surveys, and experiments—produce different types and strengths of evidence when making generalizations.
Essential Questions
- How do you determine if a generalization made from a study is valid?
- What are the strengths and limitations of generalizations made from observational studies, surveys, and experiments?
- Why is it important to analyze how a generalization was formed from a set of data?
- What could cause a generalization to be inaccurate or misleading?
- In what ways do the methods of data collection impact the reliability of generalizations?
