Math: Data Management Team Task
Goal:
To collect and analyse data to offer possible solutions to a problem
Your team is to collect information about (and document
with diagrams) about St Simon’s staff parking lot, namely:
·
dimensions (metres, feet, inches) of space
available to staff for parking length x width
·
dimensions of typical/average car that parks
here length x width
·
measure the current spaces between cars
currently and decide whether it’s sufficient/comfortable enough for entry/exit
·
total number of cars currently parked there
(we have a staff consisting of 35 cars approximately)
Using your data/diagrams as support, you are to offer your
teachers constructive suggestions about how this space could be
more effectively maximized or managed, seeing that the currently line
markings are not adhered to, nor visible in the winter and too wide.
What do we see?
Here’s what we suggest:
