Application of Graphs in Education

Graphs are useful tools for education. Relevant in almost any class in elementary or secondary school, graphs can be incorporated into math, science, language arts, physical education, art, and music. How can graphs be used to enhance traditional education, through examples and projects? This blog is dedicated to the use of graphs in class, as a stimulus for interdisciplinary learning in both mathematical/scientific and language arts.

Where Can I Find Graphs for Education?

Over 8,000 graphs are available from Schottenbauer Publishing, collected into exciting topics in sports, transportation, construction, environment, music, entertainment, and general physics. Multi-volume series within these areas contain graphs centered on various themes, while anthologies of 28 graphs provide a variety of mathematical functions related to specific topics. Educators in schools and homeschool, who lack time and/or budget for making extensive graphs, may find these useful reference tools for multiple projects across different classes.
