Discussion<br />
It is a nice idea to use the View option on the RCX display as students are<br />
running their programs.That way, they can relate the values they see on<br />
the RCX with the graph values.<br />
Students must remember to click the Plus sign to add pages when they<br />
want to upload new data.You can see the data in many ways. Here is a<br />
chart showing the data points.<br />
Students can use the Investigator Journal to write about the project.This is<br />
an example of the Describe page template showing the Program page.<br />
