Unit 4 Review: One Variable Statistics
It's always nice to slow down and review. Scholars work on problems covering concepts on one-variable statistics. They create and interpret box plots and stem-and-leaf plots, determine the mean, median, mode, interquartile range, and...

The Mean and Variability from the Mean
Discover the mean from fair share to the balance point. The activity takes small groups of pupils through two different interpretations of the mean, the fair share understanding of the mean, and the balance point. Scholars use the...

Offensive Linemen
Comparing college football teams, Division I is said to have heavier lineman than Division III. Your mathematicians are given data from two different divisions and will have to interpret a dotplot and calculate the difference in weight...

Measuring Variability for Skewed Distributions (Interquartile Range)
Should the standard deviation be used for all distributions? Pupils know that the median is a better description of the center for skewed distributions; therefore, they will need a variability measure about the median for those...

Statistics
High schoolers log their computer usage hours. They determine the mean, median, mode and standard deviation of the collected data. They make a frequency histogram of the grouped data, both on graph paper, and on the TI 83+ graphing...

Do Objects Vary Very Much?
Learners examine the concept of standard deviation, calculating mean, and collecting data. They measure the standard deviation in a bag of M&M candy, record the data, and calculate the mean.

Normal Curve Areas - Population
In this normal curve areas learning exercise, students follow 6 steps to compute the probability regarding the values from the population. First, they label x-scale with the mean and corresponding standard deviations and shade the...

The Bell Curve
Students explore the concept of the bell curve. In this bell curve lesson, students discuss the controversy associated with the bell curve. Students use an applet to explore a normal distribution. Students discuss mean, median, mode,...

Standard Deviation
Young scholars find city temperatures and analyze their means to find the standard deviation. They calculate the standard deviation of monthly temperature means.

Analyzing and Interpreting Statistics
Use measures of variance to compare and analyze data sets. Pupils match histograms of data sets to their respective statistical measures. They then use calculated statistics to further analyze groups of data and use the results to make...

Skew Distribution
Slide the class into a skewed view. Learners alter the location of the median relative to the mean of a normal curve to create a skew distribution. They compare the curve to a histogram distribution with the same skewness.

Variance and Covariance: How much to do baseball players really make?
Is baseball really the road to riches? Here, statisticians look at salary data from baseball players and use variance to measure the spread of the data to more accurately answer that question. Note: The salary data provided is from 1994,...

Overlapping Gaussians
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...
