• 01 Types of Data (24 slides): Explains quantitative, discrete, continuous, primary and secondary data.

• 02 Collecting Data (31 slides): Explains the data handling cycle and the main methods of collecting data.

• 03 Questionnaires and Surveys (30 slides): Explains the dos and don’ts when creating questionnaires or surveys.

• 04 Sampling and Bias (25 slides): Defines key statistical terms, outlines how to avoid bias, and explains the main methods of sampling.

• 05 Block Diagrams and Dot Blocks (12 slides): Reviews how to draw and interpret block diagrams and dot plots.

• 06 Pictograms (16 slides): Explains how to draw and interpret pictograms.

• 07 Bar Charts, Bar Line Graphs and Frequency Diagrams – Polygons (26 slides): Explains how to draw and interpret a variety of bar charts and vertical line graphs, as well as frequency polygons.

• 08 Line Graphs (9 slides): Explains how to draw and interpret simple line graphs.

• 09 Stepped Tables and Two-way Tables (18 slides): Explains how to create and use stepped tables and two way tables.

• 10 Pie Charts (18 slides): Explains how to draw and interpret pie charts.

• 11 Scatter Diagrams (40 slides): Explains how to draw, interpret and use scatter graphs by drawing lines of best fit and identifying types of correlation as well as their basic strength. It also looks at finding and interpreting the equation of the linear regression line.

• 12 Stem and Leaf Diagrams (17 slides): Explains how to produce stem and leaf diagrams, including back-to-back ones.

Note:

• Work on frequency tables, cumulative frequency tables and graphs, box (and whisker) plots and time series is included in APT’s set of PowerPoints on ‘Analysing Data’.

• Work on conversion graphs is included in APT’s set of PowerPoints on ‘Graphs’.

• Work on distance-time graphs are included in APT’s set of PowerPoints on ‘Geometry’, which includes work on speed.

• There are also additional PowerPoints available that cover the additional GCSE Statistics parts of this module of statistical work – covering sampling in more depth, comparative pie charts, population pyramids and choropleths.
