On-line Five Percentage Table Survey.  This is a quick multiple-choice survey with immediate feedback on reading five simple tables involving percentages.  It includes three percentage tables with 100% margins plus two additional tables of percentages lacking 100% margins.

    A paper copy of this Five Percentage-Table Survey is available for use in class.  

    Teachers are encouraged to administer the paper copy in class. 

    Have students record answers on the paper copy and on Scantron forms (no names).

    Collect the Scantron forms and go over the correct answers in class. (Teacher should take the on-line survey first).

    Enter the Scantron data into an Excel spreadsheet and send it to Administrator@StatLit.org

    This will allow the compilation of data for a wide variety of students.
