Does This Commute??

 

This was a quick 3 day project to showcase collecting data from teachers all over the world. 

 

We collected data on the distance that each participant needs (either by driving/biking/walking/etc) each day to get to work.

 

This project began on Saturday, November 17th and ended on November 19th, 2007.

 

Data was collected via an online form and is available in Excel for teacher use within their own classroom.

We also collected data on an online map.

 

Teachers were encouraged to use Google Maps to calculate distances to various landmarks. 

Please also use the EXPANSION PAGE to list ways to use this project within your classroom.
