Schultheis, Elizabeth H.; Kjelvik, Melissa K. – American Biology Teacher, 2020
Authentic, "messy data" contain variability that comes from many sources, such as natural variation in nature, chance occurrences during research, and human error. It is this messiness that both deters potential users of authentic data and gives data the power to create unique learning opportunities that reveal the nature of science…
