Goodmorning Sir, is there anyway for me to improve this research question: Analyzing the Trends and Correlations of Swimming Olympic Statistics(Freestyle, Backstroke, Breaststroke, Butterfly) over the past 10 Olympics. I’m currently very lost in terms of the Math IA(AA SL), I’ve been able to work on my other IA’s, but not the math IA.
Hey. Well, this sounds like a lot of repeated mathematics, and the calculations/mathematics being done is a scatter plot, correlation, and possibly a trendline. Repeating the same thing over and over (4 different strokes) will knocked down with your points, _unless_ something different is happening with each stroke, which I'm guessing won't be the case. The only think I can think of, which might be difficult to do, is to try to track the motion of one of the strokes of your choice and try to model that. You can get software where you can plot points along a video and then try to model that stroke. And if you are a swimmer as well, compare that to your stroke. I get that this is getting a little further away from your original topic, but you can compare the different strokes and then look at statistics for the different strokes and see if you can see where there are issues with your stroke. But ultimately, I would not recommend you doing the same thing over and over with different strokes. I hope all this helps or gives you some more ideas. Good luck!
Good morning sir, I do maths aa sl and really want to maximize my grades through this exploration. I am doing an IA in statistics so is there any tip of advice I could get to maximize my grade and meet the analysis requirements
Other than what is outlined in this video? Gather your own data. Make sure that it is meaningful and purposeful. Analyze the data and don't just assume that linear is the best (or only) option - check the residuals. Discuss why the model/data is relevant and be open to stating what didn't go well (and not "I need more data"). And if you can, connect to other topics (modeling, running a statistical test, etc). The more you can do beyond gathering data and creating a scatter plot, the better. The gathering and graphing data is expected. You need to go beyond what is expected because you have been gathering data and graphing since middle school. It's not SL quality work. I hope that helps.
Hello! I am taking Analysis HL and trying to do Mathematics IA in statistics. Would this be a good idea? Cuz I am a bit nervous if it does not meet the analysis HL requirements perhaps...
Hello. Two things...first, I haven't taught HL yet, but my opinion is that Statistics isn't one of the stronger IA content areas for HL Analysis. You would be better suited going with something in Calculus, Trigonometry, Vectors, etc. That said, **IF** you have a fantastic idea, then there are exceptions to every rule. But you will have to go deep with your analysis, thinking and application. My second point that I would make is don't go into the IA with the thought "I want to do content area". I would suggest finding something you are really interested in, outside of mathematics, and apply what you have been learning to that interest. I have a video that could help you brainstorm that thinking here: ruclips.net/video/Fr9r6uRlbDg/видео.html You'll tend to build up your personal engagement (Criterion C) if you approach the IA from this angle. I hope that was helpful. Good luck!

you actually saved by grade thank you brother
You're welcome! Good luck!
I love this man
You're very kind. I'm glad I was able to help you.
