Lesson Plan: Finding Average Values of Physical Quantities Physics
This lesson plan includes the objectives, prerequisites, and exclusions of the lesson teaching students how to calculate the mean, median, and modal values of a set of values of physical quantities.
Objectives
Students will be able to
- calculate the mean value of a set of values,
- calculate the median value of a set of values,
- calculate the modal value of a set of values.
Prerequisites
Students should already be familiar with
- units of SI base quantities for length, mass, and time.
Exclusions
Students will not cover
- any statistical values other than the arithmetic mean, median, and mode.
