Activity: Analyzing sales data for a retail store

Aim of the activity: To identify trends and patterns in sales data to make informed business decisions

Outcome of the activity: A report detailing key insights such as top-selling products, peak sales periods, customer demographics, and potential areas for improvement

Questions I may ask during the activity:
- What are the best-selling products in the store?
- Are there any noticeable trends in sales data over time?
- How do sales vary by day of the week or time of day?
- Are there any correlations between sales and external factors such as promotions or seasonality?

Drawing of the activity:

Aim of the Activity:

To develop students' data analysis and interpretation skills.

Outcome of the Activity:

- Students will be able to identify patterns and trends in data.
- Students will develop their critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
- Students will improve their communication and presentation abilities.

Question to Ask During the Activity:

- What patterns or trends do you notice in the data?
- What conclusions can you draw from the data?
- What are the strengths and limitations of the data?
- How can you effectively communicate the findings to others?

Drawing of the Activity:

Steps of the Activity:

Step 1: Provide Data

Provide students with a data set that is relevant to their learning objectives. The data can be quantitative or qualitative, and it can come from a variety of sources (e.g., surveys, experiments, government statistics).

Step 2: Group Students

Divide students into small groups of 3-4 people.

Step 3: Assign Roles

Assign each group member a specific role (e.g., data analyst, presenter, timekeeper).

Step 4: Analyze Data

Give students a set amount of time to analyze their data set. Encourage them to use different data analysis techniques (e.g., descriptive statistics, graphs, charts).

Step 5: Draw Conclusions

Have each group draw conclusions from their data analysis.

Step 6: Present Findings

Ask each group to present their findings to the class.

Step 7: Class Discussion

Lead a class discussion where students can share their perspectives on the data and ask questions.

Step 8: Reflection

Have students reflect on the activity and discuss what they learned about data analysis and how they can apply it in their future studies.
