Learners make predictions and draw conclusions from given information as they learn the meaning of probability in this vocabulary-rich, integrated activity that presents a variety of teaching strategies to motivate and reach...

Class members determine the chance of surviving two years by explaining the concept of probability expressed in a medical terms. Would-be doctors continue to explain a conditional probability statement as it relates to the...

From z-scores to probability. Learners put together the concepts from the previous lessons to determine the probability of a given range of outcomes. They make predictions and interpret them in the context of the problem.

Circles are the foundation of many geometric concepts and extensions - a point that is thoroughly driven home in this extensive unit. Fundamental properties of circles are investigated (including sector area, angle measure, and...

Solids come in many shapes and sizes. Using geometry, scholars create two-dimensional cross-sections of various three-dimensional objects. They develop the lesson further by finding the volume of solids. The module then shifts...

Adjust the overlap to compare probabilities. Using sliders, learners adjust the shape of two Gaussian curves. The interactive calculates the area of the left tail for one curve and the right tail for the other. Pupils set the interactive...

Show scholars the importance of recognizing a normal curve within a set of data. Learners analyze normal curves and calculate mean and standard deviation.

Population density, it is not all that it is plotted to be. Pupils analyze a scatter plot of population versus area for some of the states in the US. The class members respond to eight questions about the graph, specific points and...

With college tuition at an all-time high, high school high schoolers must consider the financial obligations of attending higher education, as well as the impact of college on future career opportunities. Pupils will complete...

Use Glencoe's Math Course 2 randomly generated self-checking quiz to test your knowledge of area models and probability. Each question has a "Hint" link to help. Choose the correct answer for each problem. At the bottom of the page click...

The different types of distributions are discussed here - uniform, regular, negative exponential, triangular, and normal. The properties of probability distributions are also explained here in detail. A good starting point in the topic...

Use a z-table to find the probability of a particular measurement. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

Students, teachers, and parents alike will enjoy this challenging math site. It contains a clever brain teaser section plus creative problems related to algebra, geometry, measurement, numbers, statistics, and probability. A Spanish...
