Where’s the mankarr? Video observation data: Part 1
In this first of two lessons, students investigate data from animal observations recorded by a video camera. Students take on the role of ‘researchers’ and use secondary data about an endangered Australian marsupial.
In the follow-up lesson Where’s the mankarr? Recording and visualising data, students visualise and interpret the data recorded of their animal observations.
This lesson was developed in collaboration with Caty Morris and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Mathematics Alliance (ATSIMA).
ESA would like to acknowledge the Kanyirninpa Jukurrpa and Martu peoples as developers of the source material used in the creation of this lesson.
