Here's a sweet activity! As part of a study of psychological research methods and statistic gathering, individuals develop a hypothesis about the number of each color of M&Ms in a fun-size package. They then count the number of each...

This thirteen page data analysis worksheet contains a number of interesting problems regarding statistics. The activities cover the concepts of average measurements, standard deviation, box and whisker plots, quartiles, frequency...

We all drink milk as babies, so why can't we all drink it as adults? Examine the trend in lactase production on the world-wide scale as science scholars analyze and interpret data. Groups create pie charts from the data, place them on a...

What's the link between lactase persistence and dairy farming? Biology scholars analyze data to find evidence of the connection, then relate this to human adaptation. Working individually and in small groups, learners view short video...

Find a quick, concise explanation of frequency distributions. An example is given and clearly explained.

A step-by-step worked problem from the Palomar College demonstrating how to take a set of data and produce a relative frequency polygon. Hints are provided along the way, and the final graph is shown for the user to check.

Student activity for developing vocabulary with respect to frequency of data represented in various forms.

A step-by-step worked problem demonstrating how to take a set of data and produce a frequency polygon. Hints are provided along the way and the final graph is shown for the user to check.

A sample problem on creating intervals for a frequency distribution. The example is worked out and explained along the way.

Students learn about random variables and histograms. Topics explored are continuous random variables, discrete random variables, probability, and frequency distributions. The tutorial investigtes the statistics concepts through class...

In this activity, students use simulation to justify the concept of the Law of Large Numbers. They understand that as the sample size increases, the relative frequency of which an event occurs approaches the probability of that event...

An activity where students toss a set of tacks one hundred times and plot how many land on their sides each time. They then calculate the mode, median, and mean.
