Testing Fitness Levels

In this activity, students review their results from a previous investigation to form a hypothesis, consider the validity and size of the data set collected, and question if the data would be sufficient to confirm their claim.

The activity, from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), is part of the Wii collection of activities and is supported by the video Virtual Sport. It can be used effectively to reinforce or extend the learning following the Wii Fitness? activity, and ideally should follow the activity on Handling Data to Test Fitness Levels.
