In this activity learners represent data in three different ways – on a single bar graph, a double bar graph and a pie chart. They work with frequency tables similar to the ones they completed in the previous activity.

This activity introduces the ideas of central tendency, range and spread. Learners calculate the mean, the median and mode for ungrouped data. They organise this data into groups and construct a grouped frequency table and histogram of the raw data. They do this to compare the wage structures of two companies where there are differences in variance and spread.

[Level2/Gr10 Generic Business Administration, Unit: Data, Activity 4] 

In this activity, learners read information from existing graphs and identify ways in which these graphs can be used to manipulate and distort information. They get further practice in drawing their own graphs and change the scale on the vertical axis to observe the effects.

In this activity learners examine information from a table given in a newspaper article. They are required to read values in rows and columns and understand the relationship between them, including those with three variables. They are working with much larger numbers in this exercise and accurate calculator work is needed. The context is skills development projects in the provinces organised by the Department of Labour.

This is a preliminary activity designed to give learners an opportunity to collect a small amount of raw data and transcribe this information onto a frequency table. Learners collect information about grocery stores, brand names and cellphones, using a questionnaire. They then construct frequency tables and make various comparisons.

In this activity learners are given two world maps with estimated figures for HIV/AIDS. They read figures, calculate averages, make comparisons, tabulate data and represent it on a bar graph. (PDF format)

[Generic Business Administration Level 2/Gr10 Activity 6]

In this activity learners identify patterns and trends using scatter plots, broken line graphs and bar graphs. They read values from given graphs and use them to do calculations. They make simple predictions by identifying trends.

[Level 2/Gr10 Generic Business Administration, Unit: Measurement and Shape, Activity 1]

In this activity students think about what units of measurement and what measuring instruments they would use for measuring different things. The activity also revises the basic units of measurement and gives students ideas about estimation.
