有一个很大的潜在机会，使用便携式身体活动监测设备作为数据收集工具，用于教育目的。使用这样的设备，我们设计并实施了一个为期一周的研讨会与高中学生测试这种技术的效用。在干预期间，学生们进行了身体活动的数据调查，最终设计和实施了自己的研究。在本文中，我们探讨了一些数学思维，发生了通过一系列的小插曲，一对学生从事分析自己的一些活动数据。与数据的个人联系似乎有助于这些学生认识到自己的错误，并最终帮助他们从基于点的分析方法转变为综合分析方法。从我们的观察，这种设计的学习经验，我们的结论是，身体活动数据记录设备可以为学生提供机会，以有意义的方式与个人相关的数据的原因。
There is a great potential opportunity to use portable physical activity monitoring devices as data collection tools for educational purposes. Using one such device, we designed and implemented a weeklong workshop with high school students to test the utility of such technology. During that intervention, students performed data investigations of physical activity that culminated in the design and implementation of their own studies. In this paper, we explore some of the mathematical thinking that took place through a series of vignettes of a pair of students engaged in analyzing some of their own activity data. A personal connection to the data appeared to aid these students in recognizing their own errors, and ultimately helped them move from a point-based analytical approach for making sense of the data to an aggregate one. From our observations of this designed learning experience, we conclude that physical activity data recording devices can afford students the opportunity to reason with personally relevant data in meaningful ways.
