The Organic Chemistry TutorThe Organic Chemistry Tutor

This educational video provides a comprehensive, step-by-step tutorial on how to construct box and whisker plots (also known as box plots). The narrator guides viewers through identifying the five-number summary required to draw the plot: minimum, first quartile (Q1), median (second quartile/Q2), third quartile (Q3), and maximum. The video uses clear, handwritten visualizations on a blackboard style background to demonstrate the process of organizing raw data, calculating quartiles, and mapping these points onto a number line.
