Normal Distribution
Does the size of the bin matter? The resource allows pupils to explore the relationship between the normal curve and histograms. Learners view histograms compared to a normal curve with a set standard deviation. Using the interactive,...

Properties of a Normal Distribution: Uniform Distributions
There's nothing normal about an extraordinary resource. Scholars change the dimensions of a normal distribution using a slider interactive. Determining the area under the graph gives probabilities for different situations.

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.

Normal Approximation of the Binomials Distribution: When to Approximate
Normalizing a binomial distribution — determine when it is all right. Given the rule of thumb of when it is appropriate to use the normal distribution to approximate a binomial distribution, pupils look at different scenarios....

Computing Probabilities for the Standard Normal Distribution: The FDA and Food Safety
To recall or not to recall, that is the question. Using provided data, pupils calculate the percent of people that may fall ill on average. The scholars determine the standard deviation based upon the mean and the empirical rule,...
Curated OER
Determine the 90% Values Given the 50% Values
In this normal distribution learning exercise, students determine the values for the middle 90% given the middle 50% values. Means and standard deviations are provided.

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...

Shodor Interactivate: Normal Distribution
Change the standard deviation of an automatically generated normal distribution to create a new histogram. Observe how well the histogram fits the curve, and how areas under the curve correspond to the number of trials.

Shodor Interactivate: Skew Distribution
Change the median and standard deviation of an automatically generated normal distribution to create a skewed distribution, allowing you to observe properties like what it means for the mean, median, and mode to be different.

Cal State San Bernardino: Bivariate Distribution Applet
The applet is a target at which green darts are shot either with a strict correlation to each other or without -- the user defines this. A good example of how bivariate data is truly influenced by two variables, possibly dependent upon...

Shodor Interactivate: Overlapping Gaussians
In this applet you can adjust the parameters on two Gaussian curves to determine if there is a possibility of a difference between the two means.
